Need a customised solution?
Optional accessories are available for purchase separately. If your order needs a customised configuration, our technical specialists will follow up with full details before your order is finalised. Contact us via the enquiry form or sales@lasec.com.
Installation, training and special delivery
Some products require installation, training, or special delivery (such as tail-lift trucks, extra labour, or hazardous material packaging). If your order needs this, we'll contact you with the additional cost before dispatch, so your final invoice may differ from the listed price.
Ordering from outside South Africa
Online ordering is currently limited to South African customers, but our full range is still available. Log an enquiry or email international@lasec.com and our international sales team will assist you through our traditional sales channels.
The CISA BA400N is an electromagnetic sieve shaker designed for granulometric analysis of large sample volumes. It accepts sieves from Ø 300, 305, 315, 350, 400, and 450 mm and is suited to both dry and wet sieving applications. The sieving range spans 40 µm to 125 mm.
Particle motion is three-dimensional, combining vertical displacement with sample rotation across the sieve surface. Rotation speed, direction (left or right), and timing are all digitally configurable. The control unit provides digital adjustment of amplitude, sieving time, speed, and rotation direction, with an LCD screen that displays all parameters during operation. Up to ten user-configurable programmes can be stored, supporting repeatable test conditions across batches.
Sieves are clamped using the CISA Cisa-press 2 quick-release system, reducing setup time. The shaker accommodates up to 8 sieves of 100 mm height (Ø 400/450 mm), or up to 10 sieves of 70/80 mm height (Ø 300/400 mm). The control box is independent of the shaker unit. Wet sieving capability is available by adding the optional Wet Kit accessory.

Q: What type of sieve shaker is the CISA BA400N?
A: The CISA BA400N is a digital electromagnetic sieve shaker designed for large-format granulometric analysis. It is suitable for both dry and wet sieving applications, with wet sieving requiring the optional Wet Kit.
Q: Which sieve diameters are compatible with the BA400N?
A: The BA400N is compatible with Ø 300 mm, 305 mm, 315 mm, 350 mm, 400 mm, and 450 mm sieves, making it suitable for large-scale particle size analysis applications.
Q: What sieving range can the BA400N handle?
A: The BA400N supports a sieving range from 40 µm to 125 mm, covering fine powders through to coarse materials.
Q: What is the maximum sample weight the BA400N can process?
A: The maximum recommended sample weight is 12 kg, depending on the characteristics and density of the material being tested.
Q: How does the BA400N move particles during sieving?
A: The BA400N uses three-dimensional particle motion, combining vertical displacement with rotational movement across the sieve surface. The system offers 15 levels of adjustment for optimised particle separation.
Q: Can the rotation speed and direction be adjusted?
A: Yes. The shaker allows digital adjustment of rotation speed, rotation direction (left or right), amplitude, and sieving time. All parameters can be configured through the control unit.
Q: How many user programmes can be stored?
A: The BA400N can store up to 10 user-configurable programmes, allowing repeatable test conditions and standardised operating procedures.
Q: What is the maximum sieve stack capacity?
A: The shaker accommodates:
• Up to 8 sieves with a height of 100 mm when using Ø 400 mm or Ø 450 mm sieves.
• Up to 10 sieves with a height of 70 mm or 80 mm when using Ø 300 mm or Ø 400 mm sieves.
Q: What vibration rate does the BA400N operate at?
A: The vibration rate is 3,000 vibrations per minute at 50 Hz and 3,600 vibrations per minute at 60 Hz.
Q: What is the maximum vibration amplitude?
