FAQ

The speed is listed as 0 - 3000 RPM, but the minimum sped is listed as 200 RPM. Which is it?

Confusing, isn't it? These specs were taken straight from IKA and we were confused as well.

We have confirmed that the MS 3 Digital will shake at low speeds (we've tested down to 50 rpm and it works). 0 - 3000 rpm is likely correct for this unit.

We have not yet tested the MS 3 Basic at low speeds, but will gladly do so the first request we get.
