safety limits for the CE regulation. Also, MS Orbital Shaker is RoHS
compliant to deliver confident product which meets the environmental
directive. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a
commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate
radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used in accordance with the
instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to
cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct
the interference at their expense. Changes or modifications not expressly

to read the following points carefully before this equipment is operated.
1. Read and follow carefully the manual instructions.
2. Do not alter the equipment. Failure to follow these directions could
result in personal and/ or laboratory hazards, as well as invalidate
equipment warranty.
3. Use a properly grounded electrical outlet with correct voltage and
current handing capacity.
4. Disconnect from power supply before maintenance and servicing.
Refer servicing to qualified personnel.
5. Never use this instrument series without having the safety cover
correctly in position.
6. Do not use the unit if there is any sign of damage to the external case
or cover. Replace damaged parts.
7. Do not use in the presence of flammable or combustible material; fire or
explosion may result. This device contains components, which may
ignite such materials.
8. Refer maintenance and servicing to qualified personnel.
9. Ensure that the system is connected to electrical service according to
local and national electrical codes. Failure to make a proper connection
may create fire or shock hazard.
10. Use appropriate materials and operate correctly to avoid possible
DOMINIQUE DUTSCHER SAS

hazards of explosion, implosion or release of toxic or flammable gases
arising from overheated materials.
11. The unit shall be operated only by qualified personnel.
Safety Information
Use high level of precaution against any electrical device. Before
connecting the electrical supply, check to see if the supply voltage is within
the range stated at the rating label, and see to it that the device be seated
firmly. Place the unit in a safe and dry location; it must NOT touch the
surrounding. Follow the safety precautions for chemicals / dangerous
materials. If needed, please contact qualified service representative or
[email protected]
Environmental Conditions
Ensure the instrument is installed and operated strictly in the following
conditions:
1. Indoor use only
2. 95% RH
3. 75 kPa – 106 kPa
4. Altitude must not exceed 2000 meters
5. Ambient to 40°C operating temperature
6. Pollution degree: 2
7. Mains supply voltage fluctuations up to ±10% of the normal voltage
Avoiding Electrical Shock
Follow the guidelines below to ensure safe operation of the unit.
MS Orbital Shaker has been designed to use with shielded wires thus
minimizing any potential shock hazard to the user. Major Science
recommends against the use of unshielded wires.
To avoid e l e c t r i c a l sh ock :
1. In the event of solution accidentally spilling into the instrument, it must
DOMINIQUE DUTSCHER SAS

be dried out for a period of time (at least 2 hours) and restored to
NORMAL CONDITION before each operation.
2. Never connect or disconnect wires loading from the power jacks when
the red indicator light of power switch is on.
3. WAIT at least 5 seconds after stopping a run before handling output
leads or any connected apparatus.
4. ALWAYS make sure that your hands, work area, and instruments are
clean and dry before making any connections or operating the power
supply.
5. ONLY connect the power cord to a properly grounded AC outlet.
Avoiding Damage to the Instrument
1. Do not attempt to operate the device if damage is suspected.
2. Protect this unit from physical damage, corrosive agents and extreme
temperatures (direct sunlight, etc.).
3. For proper ventilation and safety concerns, keep at least 10 cm of space
behind the instrument, and at least 5 cm of space on each side.
4. Use high level of precaution against the damages on the unit.
5. Do not operate the unit out of environmental conditions addressed
above.
6. Prior to applying any cleaning or decontamination methods other than
manufacturer’s recommendation, users should check with the
manufacturer’s instruction to see if the proposed method will damage the
equipment.
7. To avoid condensation after operating the shaker in a cold room, wrap
the unit in a plastic bag and allow at least 2 hours for the unit to
equilibrate to room temperature before removing the bag and operating
the unit.

1.1 Overview
Major Science Orbital Shaker, using its patented mechanism and function
achieves unique motion which drives forward and backward, elicits perfect
mixing performance. Agitation is driven with exact measurements, while
cycle rotation for forward and backward is controlled by the microprocessor
controller with timer. This unit provides a 30 cm x 30 cm platform. It is
perfect for bench-top and normal incubator operations. Its light weighted for
easy mobility, and it also provides quiet, reliable operation for any research.
More importantly, MS Orbital Shaker is RoHS compliant and designed to
comply with the CE regulation.

1.2 Product Description
The orbital shaker is a microprocessor controlled orbital shaking instrument
for many general purpose shaking applications in chemical and life sciences
laboratories. Its unique design digitally controls clockwise and/or anti
clockwise orbits to achieve outstanding mixing efficiency. The operation
may be continuous or timed, with the integral electronic timer ensuring
accurate repeatability of time-sensitive incubations. Speed and time setting
are straightforward in the LED display. Its load weight is up to 10kg. An
audible signal accompanies automatic switch-off to indicate the completion
of a set time period. The interchangeable / stacking platforms and
accessories enable a wide choice of vessels to be used, including bottles,
flasks and beakers, dishes, boxes, and petri-dishes.
