Clifton® Shaking water bath, featuring precision PID control, allows observation of set and actual temperature simultaneously. A broad range of accessory flask clips and racks ensures flexibility for routine and specialized work.
Accessory clips and racks can be mounted onto the perforated tray which fits onto the reciprocating stainless steel trolley. Flasks and test-tube racks can easily be loaded and unloaded by lifting out the complete shelf. The trolley can also easily be removed for cleaning. The perforated tray is supplied as standard.
Heaters and temperature sensor are concealed under the tank and provide a clutter free working area which is easy to wipe clean. The heating footprint covers the underside of the tank and with a low mass provides rapid energy transfer, resulting in quicker heat up times and a reduction in energy consumption and improved temperature uniformity.
The shaking system is quiet in use and by removing the trolley and replacing the perforated tray, it can be used as a standard laboratory bath.
The shaker trolley is stable in use and the removable perforated shelf makes loading and unloading easy, unlike other traditional shaker baths where the whole shaker carriage has to be removed.
Clifton Shaker baths features a useful stainless steel recessed tray for standing flasks on prior to and after immersion.
Comprising of a high quality corrosion resistant stainless steel tank, with a bright clean finish, housed in a durable paint finished outer case which has good chemical resistance. Painted surfaces feature anti-bacterial finish which is a hygienic coating and actively inhibits bacterial growth.
Controls
Featuring a bold LED display of measured temperatures in real-time and in increments of ±0.1°C, using a precision PID temperature controller. Temperature settings are retained in the memory, even after the unit has been turned off.
Easy to use controls, utilizing touch keypads for setting temperature values.
Features auto setting temperature alarm protecting your work at set temperature.
Every unit undergoes a factory calibration at two temperatures for validation.
Shaking speed control is by analogue dial pointer graduated in 100rpm divisions from 0 – 380rpm. Fixed stoke length 20mm.
Safety Features
Thermal cut out fitted in the heater. Bath fitted with non-slip rubber feet.
The under/over temperature alarm is automatically set 4°C above and 4°C below set temperature. When in alarm condition the indicator illuminates and the actual bath temperature is shown. If bath is over temperature heating is switched off. Once liquid temperature has fallen or risen above/below the alarm setting, the indicator clears and actual bath temperature is shown and the control resumes.
Heating/Cooling Information
Above 60°C it is recommended that to achieve optimum performance the bath should be covered with a lid or layer of polypropylene spheres – see accessories.
Covering the bath with a lid reduces energy consumption and running costs.

Features and Benefits
1. The reciprocating trolley accepts a wide number of accessory universal flask clips, which can be made up in any number of specific ways for your applications e.g. flask clips and test tube racks.
2. Shaking Clifton water bath designed for immersion of flasks, bottles and racks in a highly stable temperature environment throughout the water bath.
3. The trolley can be easily removed and cleaned.
4. Quiet running shaker mechanism and drive motor.
5. Bold temperature control panel ensuring set and actual water temperature can be easily seen.
6. Three-year warranty and comprehensive customer support.
7. Before leaving our factory each water bath has a unique serial number, electrically tested for safety at final inspection and a test certificate enclosed in rear of the instruction book.
8. To verify the performance of the temperature control system every unit undergoes a factory calibration adjusting control to known traceable values.
9. The control panel and painted surfaces feature “anti-bacterial technology” which inhibits bacterial growth, improving hygiene requirements as demanded by clinical and laboratory environments. The Clifton range features easy to clean surfaces and finishes that are resistant to routine and efficient disinfections. The efficacy of the finish is maintained over time, as the anti-bacterial agent is integral within the paint finish.
