The Yamato SA-300A is the SA300 two-dimensional laboratory shaker configured with four separating-funnel holders (part 232096), ready for liquid-liquid extraction out of the box. The Yamato SA-300A shakes both horizontally and vertically at 20–300 rpm, and because the funnel holders mount vertically, it agitates up to four separating funnels at once for solvent extraction, washing, and phase mixing. It is the extraction-ready configuration of Yamato's rugged 90 W DC benchtop shaker.

Application Profile
Liquid-liquid extraction depends on maximizing contact between two immiscible phases and then letting them separate — traditionally done by hand-shaking a separating funnel and venting it repeatedly. The SA-300A automates that: its four vertically mounted separating-funnel holders shake up to four funnels simultaneously at a set speed and duration, giving consistent, reproducible extraction across a batch while freeing the analyst from manual shaking. The two-dimensional horizontal/vertical motion at 20–300 rpm covers gentle phase mixing through vigorous extraction (see mixing-agitation).
Beyond extraction, the underlying SA300 is a general-purpose shaker: the deck accepts the wider SA-series holder ecosystem — centrifugal-tube, test-tube, flask, and rack holders — so the same instrument later reconfigures for culture, dissolution, or suspension work. The 40 kg chassis and 90 W DC motor supply the shaking load to drive full funnels without walking, and the dial timer's continuous switch supports both timed and unattended runs. The main unit can also be laid on its side for pure horizontal shaking (see shaker-selection).
Frequently Asked Questions
What comes with the SA-300A? The SA300 shaker main unit plus four separating-funnel holders (part 232096, for 100–1000 mL funnels), configured for liquid-liquid extraction.
What shaking motion and speed does it provide? Two-dimensional horizontal/vertical shaking at 20–300 rpm with a 40 mm shaking width.
Can I run other vessels on it? Yes — the SA-series holders (centrifugal-tube, test-tube, Erlenmeyer-flask, and rack holders) are interchangeable on the deck and ordered separately as needed.
How is it different from the SA-400A? The SA-300A is the SA300 (two-dimensional horizontal/vertical) with four funnel holders; the SA-400A is the SA400 (double-sided vertical) with six funnel holders for higher throughput.
What voltage does it ship as? Voltage is configured to order — the base SA300 is offered in 115 V (2 A) and 220 V (1 A). Confirm 115 V or 220 V at quote.
