The Benchmark SB0012 SB-12L Shaking Water Bath is a compact, feature-rich system designed to deliver consistent mixing and precise temperature control for a wide range of lab applications. Utilizing a reliable belt-less motor drive from the Orbi-Shaker™ Series, it combines smooth orbital shaking with accurate digital control, supporting temperatures up to 80°C.
The 12-liter seamless stainless steel chamber offers lasting durability and easy maintenance, while the universal spring-loaded platform securely holds a variety of tubes, flasks, and bottles during operation. Its hinged, removable lid minimizes energy loss, protects samples from contamination, and redirects condensation away from your work. A user-friendly digital interface allows for precise adjustment and monitoring of time, speed, and temperature, with an integrated constant monitoring system to maintain parameter accuracy. The SB-12L's space-saving footprint makes it ideal for laboratories where bench space is at a premium.
All of our equipment will be fully tested to perform at factory specifications before being shipped.
Marshall Scientific is an Authorized Distributor of Benchmark Scientific products. If a 1.5/2.0ml or 0.5ml tube rack is required for your application, our team can assist in selecting a brand new option.

- Confirm power supply and PCB are outputting stable, correct voltages across all essential circuits to ensure reliable operation
- Inspect the display for any dim, flickering, or dead pixels, replacing any compromised sections to maintain full clarity and accurate readouts
- Verify that all buttons, knobs, and switches are functioning properly, providing precise and responsive control across all settings
- Conduct a thorough inspection of the water reservoir for any holes, rust, or other structural damage that may impact its integrity
- Fill the reservoir with water, checking closely for any external or internal leaks that could affect performance
- Examine the lid for any signs of wear or damage, replacing hinges and handles if necessary to ensure a secure and proper seal
- Inspect for any internal leaks originating from the water reservoir, confirming the unit’s internal plumbing integrity
- Conduct a comprehensive inspection of internal wiring for any breakages, tears, or wear; replace any underperforming or damaged components to maintain safe operation
- Examine internal insulation for signs of burns, breaks, or deterioration, replacing as needed to ensure thermal efficiency and safety
- Confirm that all feet are intact and that the bath sits level and balanced on a flat surface to prevent movement or instability
- Calibrate both temperature accuracy and uniformity using a NIST-traceable temperature probe, verifying compliance with specification standards
- Perform a detailed cosmetic inspection to confirm that all external surfaces and finishes meet aesthetic and quality standards
