Lab-Line Instruments 3540 Orbital Shaker Bath For sale- a Lab-Line Instruments 3540 Orbital Shaker Bath. The bath is in decent physical condition, the only issue being that someone removed the attaching screws at all four of the places where the shake platform is attached to the outer shaking arms and then didn’t bother to put them back. So I was sorta prepared for it to either not shake or not heat and to my surprise it does both. So I guess they either removed them to clean it or change out the platform and never got back to replacing them. Which on the one hand wouldn’t be a big deal to find some screws to fit. But the original hardware was knurled knobs which I guess would allow for a quick change of the platform, so if you are going to be doing that replacing the originals would be desirable. Maybe Lab-Line can help you with that, maybe not. What I found interesting looking at the other listings, very few of them have the digital temperature readout that this one does. I don’t know whether that was an option or a function of age. Based on the serial number I think this one was produced in 1997, a lot of the others were late 80’s vintage. Again, this does shake, the analog speed gauge and control work. The heating element comes on and off thermostatically and the Hi-Limit appears to be functional. The only thing I did not do was fill it with water, and that was purely a function of it being in an inaccessible spot to move to a water source. So I only had the heat on briefly. I can fill it with water before it ships to make sure it doesn’t leak and test the thermostat a bit more carefully. But I am pretty confident it is functional. As you can see in the pictures the interior looks like it could stand a thorough cleaning and there is a bit of rust or staining on the shaker platform. So it isn’t pristine but it isn’t bad. Comes with the stainless top. Untested other than as described, sold as is, and NO warranty is offered. However, IF you pay the asking price and find it has a problem you cannot live with within 14 days of receipt you may return it. Returns are ONLY allowed on Buy It Now Purchases.

Potential buyers are asked to please make sure you have read the listing carefully, and understand what you are buying. Ebay’s condition codes for used items, which I am now required to select from, might imply a degree of functionality that my limited time, knowledge, and facilities do not allow me to ascertain. If the functional condition of the item is known it will be stated as such in the listing. Unless a warranty is specifically offered returns are not accepted regardless of any implied functionality. Shipping will be motor freight on a pallet unless you would like to come pick it up. I would estimate the shipping weight at around 125 pounds. I would estimate the freight cost for that at between $120 and $200 to the east and west coast respectively. Residential deliveries, deliveries that require liftgates, deliveries to the boonies, and deliveries to schools or universities will all be more because it takes longer for the carrier to get the job done. Shipping will be via Old Dominion Freight Lines, which has done a consistently good job getting my shipments where they are going without roughing them up. I will be happy to quote you for the shipment, but I need to know the zip code, residential or commercial, and whether a lift gate will be required. If you would prefer to use another carrier that’s fine . It will be shipping from a warehouse with a loading dock in zip code 23093, but I do not live there! I require pickup confirmation the day before and your carrier must provide an emailed printable copy of the Bill of Lading so that there is paperwork available for the driver to sign when he gets there. The BOL should have all the info filled out when I receive it, blank copies are unacceptable. I can ship this to Canada via Old Dominion, but they do not offer customs brokerage services, so you would need to have your own customs broker lined up before it shipped.
