introduction

The Labnet GyroMini™ Nutating Mixer is a 3-dimensional mixer typically used for maintaining the uniform suspension of blood components in blood collection tubes without foaming. This Nutating Mixer is also ideal for mixing large strands of DNA into solution in microcentrifuge tubes or mixing blood into a buffer in large centrifuge tubes. The Nutating Mixer achieves its 3-dimensional mixing by combining the rotating motion of an orbital shaker with the rocking motion of a platform rocker.

Technical Specifications

S0500-230V-EU GyroMini-Nutating-Mixer-

The Labnet GyroMini Nutating Mixer is designed to be safe at least when operated under the following conditions:

  • Indoor use only
  • Altitude up to 2,000 meters
  • Pollution degree 2
    Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. The equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the user manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference.

CAUTION: This equipment is not intended for use in residential environments and may not provide adequate protection to radio reception in such environments.

This ISM device complies with Canadian ICES-001.
Cet appareil ISM est conforme à la norme NMB-001 du Canada.

Installation

The Labnet GyroMini™ Nutating Mixer can be used on a bench, in a cold room, or in an incubator up to 40°C. Place the unit on a flat stable surface and be sure to leave sufficient room around the unit to allow the platform to run freely. A minimum of 4 inches (10 cm) clearance on all sides of the mixer is advised.
Plug the unit into a properly grounded outlet of the appropriate voltage as shown on the unit’s data plate label.

Operating Instructions

Tubes may be placed directly on to the dimpled mat. The dimple pattern is configured to allow blood tubes and centrifuge tubes to be securely placed on the mat without additional strapping in most cases. If tubes are to be stacked, they should be secured with rubber bands or bungie cords. Holes in the corners of the platform edges are provided for this purpose.

NOTE: Always load the platform in a uniform and balanced fashion.
Use the power switch to turn the unit on. The direction of rotation in which the unit starts is random and does not affect mixing.
If desired, the rotational direction can be reversed by holding the unit’s base and very briefly touching the rotating platform on the bottom at one corner. This technique can also be used to select the quietest direction of rotation.

Cleaning and Maintenance

NOTE: Always disconnect the cord from the power source before maintaining or servicing.
The Labnet GyroMini Nutating Mixer requires no maintenance other than occasional cleaning with a damp cloth with mild detergent. The dimpled mat may be washed with soap and water. Do not immerse the unit in water or spill liquids over the unit. Be sure the unit is dry before reconnecting to power.
