The Benchmark Scientific BT4001 is designed for shaking, mixing, and aeration applications in extreme environments, including CO2 incubators. It can withstand temperatures from 0 to 60° C and humidity levels up to 100%.

To avoid contamination, unintentional release of gas or deviations from protocol, all settings are adjusted via the included remote control module. This module can be stored outside of the chamber and connects to the shaker via a flat (1 mm thickness) cable, that easily passes through a port or underneath an incubator door without compromising the seal. This allows for user adjustment of run time or mixing speed without opening the chamber door(s).

The BT4001 is supplied with a non-slip rubber mat platform. In addition, convenient MAGic Clamp platforms (of multiple sizes) are also available for use with Erlenmeyer flasks and test tube racks. The unique magnetic attachment method has been widely recognized as the easiest way to instantly change between flask clamps of different sizes.
