Standard hotplate stirrers are designed for general-purpose laboratory use.
- Excellent temperature uniformity
- Enhanced electronics
- Cool touch, chemical-resistant housing
- Best-in-Class Five-Year Warranty
- Industry Leading Safety Features
These microprocessor controlled, analog units are equipped with easy-to-use, dial-adjustment controls
Hotplate stirrers are available with ceramic or aluminum top plates. Ceramic top plates feature an easy-to-clean, chemical-resistant, reflective white surface (units offer ±3% temperature stability). Aluminum top plates will not crack or chip, and offer a more even heating surface (units offer ±2% temperature stability). The unit's housing is constructed of a heat-resistant polymer that remains cool to the touch, and is chemical-resistant. For additional safety, a hot symbol warning light is illuminated while the unit is in use, and remains lit until the top plate is sufficiently cooled. Units are equipped with redundant safety controls, which will shut down unit in case of heater malfunction.
Enhanced electronics and a robust heater regulate stirring and heating functions. A ramping feature gradually increases speed to prevent splashing, improve magnetic coupling, and provide excellent low end control. Speed is precisely controlled, with consistent stirring at all speeds powered by a dependable, continuous duty motor. A low-profile design requires minimal bench space and permits use within a fume hood. The spill-resistant housing channels fluids away from internal components in the event of a spill.
Certifications: RoHS certified. TUV listed.
Ordering information: Units are supplied with a 234 cm (92") Euro type plug. A 3.8 cm (1.5") PTFE-coated stir bar is also included.
