Shaking Incubator - 311DS (71L)

The Labnet 311DS Shaking Incubator is a high-performance environmental incubator featuring a built-in orbital shaker and a broad temperature range. Engineered for applications demanding strict temperature control—including liquid cultures, blot washing, cell aeration, and bacterial cultivation—the 311DS delivers outstanding uniformity and accuracy in a durable, user-friendly package.

• High-Performance Incubation: 71 L (2.5 cu. ft.) chamber with built-in orbital shaker for simultaneous incubation and agitation.
• SmartChek™ Temperature Control: Labnet's exclusive system maintains precise regulation with ±0.1°C accuracy and ±0.2°C uniformity at 37°C.
• Broad Temperature Range: Ambient +5°C to 80°C expands use to liquid cultures, hybridization washes, and other temperature-sensitive shaking applications.
• Integral Orbital Shaker: Sturdy 19 mm orbit shaker with adjustable speed from 20 to 300 RPM.
• Heat-Stress Protection: All electronics are located away from the chamber to protect components from heat-related stress and extend service life.
• Gasketed Door with Large Viewing Area: Check samples without disturbing chamber conditions; opening the door automatically stops shaker operation for safety.
• Digital Timer: Programmable from 1 to 99 minutes or set to continuous operation.
• Adjustable Shelving: One full shelf included; additional shelves available separately for flexible configuration.
• Wide Selection of Platforms: Flat platform, pre-drilled flask platforms, and dedicated clamp platforms for 25 mL to 2 L Erlenmeyer flasks.
• Durable Construction: Robust build quality with a 140 lb (63.6 kg) frame designed for continuous laboratory use.

Labnet's exclusive SmartChek™ temperature control system guarantees precise temperature regulation throughout the 71 L chamber. The mechanical convection design ensures rapid recovery after door openings, while the independent safety mechanisms protect sensitive samples. By relocating all electronics outside the heated chamber, the 311DS minimizes heat-related component stress for enhanced reliability and longevity.

The 311DS is ideal for bacterial cultures, yeast cultures, entomology studies, egg hatching, hybridization washes, mixing and resuspensions, cell cultures, microbiology, cell aeration, metabolism studies, bacteriology, and increasing solubility rates. Its broad temperature range and robust orbital shaker make it equally suited for pharmaceutical research, academic laboratories, and industrial quality-control environments.
