The LS-Z is part of a new 3-in-1 modular system to provide maximum flexibility to our customers.

The shaker is the perfect starter model, e.g., for universities or start-ups. It can be used for cultivation of microbial, plant and animal cell cultures.

Furthermore, the LS-Z is well suited for the integration into liquid handling systems (e.g., Tecan, Hamilton,…) and other automated laboratory processes.

Available models

The LS-Z comes with three options: benchtop only/stand-alone, combinable with incubators or liquid handling systems from other manufacturers, or combined with the new Kuhner Kelvin+ incubator for temperature control. The LS-Z shaker unit has a very small footprint, tolerates an ambient relative humidity of up to 90%, and features a detachable control unit and power cube. Therefore, the LS-Z is extremely flexible regarding its installation site: it can be placed in any lab incubator or temperature-controlled room.

Reliable technology by Kuhner: The in-house designed magnetic drive system of the LS-Z shaker guarantees accurate control and low energy consumption/heat dissipation even at high speeds. The maintenance-free direct drive is long lasting, robust, and economical.

The LS-Z shaker accepts loads up to 25 kg and the shaking diameter can be adjusted at any time. There are three standard shaking diameters (12.5, 25 and 50 mm) with others available on request.

Due to hygienic design, the drive is also protected from any spills.

Features for automated processes
The LS-Z is well suited for the integration into liquid handling systems and other automated laboratory processes. The lab shaker can be equipped with the flexible Kuhner interfaces (such as the Net60 interface) to connect the system very easily to standard process control systems (e.g., Siemens, Emerson, …). With these interfaces, also the control of the shaker setpoints can be realized (automation of the system). Additionally, the LS-Z has a precise stop position, which is for instance crucial for the integration into a liquid handling system.

Quality guaranteed As with all Kuhner products, the LS-Z is a cost-effective investment in quality backed with a five-year warranty.

We subject all our shaking machines to an elaborate final test before delivery and send the test protocols to our customers.
