A vortex mixer is an essential piece of laboratory equipment used to efficiently mix or homogenize samples often in tubes or microplates by creating a vortex within the sample tube. Consisting of an electric motor and a mixing platform, a vortexer can accommodate an array of sample types and containers. When comparing lab vortex mixers, be sure to compare key specifications such as speed range, platform type and size, mixing modes, and capacity. Many vortex mixers also have adjustable orbital diameters to adjust the amount of mixing and agitation the samples receive. For laboratories using chemical solvents, many models of lab vortexer include chemical-resistant racks and holders to increase the lifespan of the sample holders.

| Description | The cartridge design of Glas-Col' s Multi-Pulse Vortexer allows the user to switch the size of tubes to be mixed simply by changing the cartridge size, thus eliminating the need for extra racks. Cartridges are available for test tubes and centrifuge tubes and can be used with capped or uncapped The cartridge design of Glas-Col' s Multi-Pulse Vortexer allows the user to switch the size of tubes to be mixed simply by changing the cartridge size, thus eliminating the need for extra racks. Cartridges are available for test tubes and centrifuge tubes and can be used with capped or uncapped tubes. The blank cartridges allow the use of most standard tube racks. Each cartridge is constructed of chemical resistant foam and ABS plastic. The unit easily adjusts for different height tubes. The contents of the tubes remain visible during mixing, and sample can be added to uncapped tubes without stopping the action.
Features - Variable speed.
- Pulsing feature interrupts vortexing to join upper and lower strata for more thorough mixing.
- DC motor with filtered control for smoother operation and longer motor life.
- Interchangeable cartridge system allows units to be adapted to different vessels easily
- Variety of sizes to fit most applications
Easily customized for special applications. Each Multi-Pulse Vortexer comes with two cartridges, one for 12-13 mm diameter tubes and one for 15-16 mm diameter tubes....
