Instruction Manual

1.0 Overview

The Corning® LSE™ Digital Vortexer is intended for vortexing microliter plates, tubes, bottles,

flasks, dishes, and other laboratory vessels. The vortexer is driven by asynchronous motors,

which enable silent operation and constant shaking speed, independent of the load or power

supply fluctuations.

Each vorexer consists of two main components:

Motor with eccentric mechanism

Control electronics

The motor drives the vortexer’s eccentric mechanics and generates the shaking effect. The

electronics control the motor RPM, Time, and keyboard functions.

2.0 Safety Precautions

Always plug the unit into a properly grounded and fused outlet.

Do not use the device near water sources. Take care so that water will not fall on the

device, especially during cleaning procedures.

Do not use the device in a caustic or explosive atmosphere.

There are no user serviceable parts in the unit. Opening the unit may void the warranty.

Incase of a malfunction or liquid being spilled into the unit, unplug the device from its

power outlet and contact Corning Customer Service.

NOTE: In the case that the device does not function properly even if you have

exactly followed the instructions described in this manual, contact Corning

Customer Service. If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by this

manual, the equipment may become unsafe to operate, could harm the user or the

device, and may void the warranty.

Do not shake inflammable or explosive samples or use the unit in an inflammable or

explosive environment.

4.0 Installation

4.1 Unpacking

Before starting installation, carefully examine the vortexer for damage or missing parts.

Open the box and lift the device together with the inner packing out of the box.

Remove the inner packing and check that the vortexer has not been visibly damaged during

transportation. Keep the packing material until you are sure that the vortexer works properly.

Check information on the rear data label and verify the following are correct:

• Model

• Serial number

• Electrical rating

Should any kind of damage have occurred during transportation, contact the carrier

immediately. The carrier is responsible for shipping damage.

Instruction Manual

4.2 Selecting the Location

Put the device on a horizontal, leveled, and stable surface.

Leave enough space around the device for normal air circulation (4 in./10 cm minimum).

Leave enough space around the device for easy access and maintenance.

Do not use the device in surroundings where there are major temperature and humidity

fluctuations. Also avoid locations in direct sunlight or places near devices that produce heat.

Avoid locations with excessive vibrations.

4.3 Attaching the Power Cord

Fit the main power cord, which is included in the package, into the power receptacle on the

vortexer. Connect the other end of the cord to a properly grounded wall outlet. To avoid

interference from noise, surges, and spikes, a dedicated line is preferred. If no such line is

available, avoid lines to which powerful electric motors, refrigerators, and similar devices are

connected.

Be careful when you plug the cord to a grounded wall socket. Do not touch plug

with wet hands. Do not pull the plug by the cord.

4.4 Installing Vortexer Platforms

Cat. No. Description

48010 Platform for 4 microplates

48011 Platform with non-slip rubber mat

48012 Spring loaded platform for flasks, bottles, or tube racks

The Corning® LSE Digital Vortexer requires the installation of the selected platform. Please

follow the instructions below for installing the platform.

Grease

Sliding Stabilizers

0.7 mm

Before you attach the platform, make sure that the slide stabilizers are properly fastened,

adjusted, and lubricated with the included grease.

4CORNING LSE DIGITAL VORTEXER

The flat mat platform has a circle cut-out in the rubber and screw holes in the center. Remove the

cut-out rubber circle and screw down the 4 screws onto the vortexer. After attaching the platform,

remove the non-adhesive backing paper on the rubber circle, and paste it back into place.

The grease is used to lubricate the slide stabilizers. It is sufficient for 1,000 working hours

(approx. 1 year). After that time you should remove the platform and clean, adjust, and

re-grease the slide stabilizers. If they are worn out, you should replace them with new

stabilizers and set to appropriate height.

7.0 Maintenance and Cleaning

With the exception of the occasional maintenance described in Section 4.0 of this manual,

no scheduled maintenance is normally required. However, an experienced technician

should regularly check the device operation at least once a year to make sure it is operating

correctly.

Regular cleaning of the housing is recommended.

The housing of the vortexer can be cleaned with special cleaners for polyurethane (plastic)

surfaces. A damp (not wet) cloth is recommended.

NOTE: Do not use any aggressive or abrasive cleaners (acetone, nitro, polish, etc.) because its

surface can be permanently damaged.

Before cleaning the device, unplug the main cord from the wall socket.
