2.4 Universal power module
Voltage and frequency have been set prior to shipment. Innova shakers are available in the following
voltages:
• 100 V
• 120 V
• 220 V
• 240 V
The unit can accommodate both 50 and 60 Hz frequencies.
A voltage selector (which is incorporated in the power entry module) and a frequency selector switch are
used to select the appropriate voltage and frequency. This universal system adapts to worldwide power
requirements.
2.5 Speed/monitor option
A speed/monitor option (M1194-9924) is available. This option offers:
• Remote monitoring
• 0 – 5 V analog recorder output for speed
• The connection of a chart recorder so that shaking speed can be documented
• 0 – 3.5 V (1 V per 100 rpm) analog output for shaking speed
The module is designed to piggy-back onto the main electronic board via an expansion connector. It
controls analog power supplies and provides remote monitoring capabilities by supplying analog outpost
for speed that are compatible with chart recorders and analog data acquisition systems.
2.6 Heavy duty construction
2.6.1 Eccentric drive
The triple eccentric drive used in the Innova shakers employs the same proven technology that has reliably
driven New Brunswick shakers for over 30 years. This drive mechanism utilizes a counterweight system to
stabilize the rotary motion produced during operation.
WARNING! Risk of electric shock and/or damage to device!
Do not plug the shaker into a power source until you check the voltage and frequency
settings.
Check the voltage selection on the power entry module against the Caution label located
over the power cord connection and your electric power source.
Product descriptionNew Brunswick™ Innova® 5000 Shaker
English (EN)12
When the workload moves in one direction, opposing forces are generated to stabilize the shaker. This
action will help eliminate the problem of “walking” that may occur with less precisely balanced
instruments. Vibrations are minimized and the life of the unit is extended.
Product descriptionNew Brunswick™ Innova® 5000 Shaker

2.6.2 Bearings
Innova shakers employ sealed lubricated ball bearings of the highest quality. Sealed bearings minimize the
generation of airborne particles that could be disadvantageous in clean rooms or controlled environment
areas.
The main bearing is not sealed.
This bearing design has performed reliably in New Brunswick shakers for many years.
2.6.3 Motor
The Innova 5000 Shaker uses a brushless ball bearing DC motor. This motor provides high torque along
with quiet, efficient operation and low maintenance. The rugged motor has a rating of 3/8 horsepower.
