Vortex mixer with touch and continuous modes, 0–3000 rpm, brushless motor and a low, stable body. Supplied as a full set with the VM501 tube, VM502 flask/multi-tube and VM503 blood-tube modules.
The VM-500S is the knob-controlled vortex mixer of the range. Touch the module with a tube, and it spins up to 3000 rpm. Alternatively, switch to Run for continuous mixing at 200–3000 rpm. The brushless motor and the low, wide body keep it planted on the bench.
In addition, the full set adds three interchangeable modules: VM501 for single tubes, VM502 for flasks and multiple tubes, and VM503 for 21 blood-collection tubes. As a result, one mixer covers the whole bench.

The vortex mixer resuspends reagents and standards, mixes reagent tablets and powders into sample vials, and homogenises water samples before photometer readings. In addition, it handles general tube mixing in water, microbiology and clinical laboratories.
Hadron Group equips water-treatment, municipal and industrial laboratories across South Africa and the SADC region. In addition, we run our own laboratory in Pretoria for jar tests, disinfection-demand tests and chemical QC. Therefore we supply the bench equipment we use ourselves. Finally, commissioning advice, consumables and spares come from the same range.
How do I order the vortex mixer VM-500S? Quote the model and the Hadron item code. In addition, tell us which accessories you need, and we will quote the set.
How does this vortex mixer differ from the VM-500Pro? The Pro adds an LCD display, digital speed setting and a 1 min – 8 h timer. The VM-500S, in contrast, is knob-controlled with no timer. Both take the same modules.
Can I add other modules later? Yes. VM504 (5/15 ml centrifuge tubes × 12), VM505 (50 ml × 4 plus 5/15 ml) and VM506 (0.2 ml × 96 / 96-well plate) fit the same drive.
