Benchmark BenchMasher™ 400 Laboratory Paddle Blender
Product Description
The BenchMasher™ 400 Laboratory Paddle Blender provides fast and effective mixing, ensuring consistent homogenization. It is ideal for preparing samples where eliminating contamination is critical, such as pathogen and microbial detection in food and water filters, as well as applications where larger solid samples need to be broken down or products, such as powders and polymers, need to be mixed.
Features:
- Contamination-free mixing/homogenization of samples
- Samples up to 400 mL are conveniently loaded in sterile blender bags, which are sealed upon closing the door (bags are sold separately)
- Mixing paddles rapidly strike the bags, producing thorough mixing and homogenization without ever directly contacting the sample
- Touch screen control with variable mixing speed and temperature control
- Programming is user-friendly - mixing speed and cycle time are easily adjusted on the large, full-color touch screen
- For applications requiring thermal regulation (such as Trichinella testing in meat), the chamber can be heated and maintained at temperatures up to 65°C
- Adjustable stroke length to accommodate samples of various types
- Paddle position can be adjusted to ensure efficient processing of samples
- Each paddle includes a convenient rubber cover that is easily removed or replaced
- The door is removable for access to the chamber and stainless steel mixing paddles
- Window for sample visualization
- A UV Light (254 nm) is built into the chamber and can be activated at any time to perform complete decontamination
