Description
VWR® Advanced magnetic hotplate stirrers deliver accurate, repeatable results. Units are microprocessor controlled and have an easy to read LED display for set point temperature. The control panel features easy to use controls which allow users to dial in adjustments for temperature, the stirrer control dial has rpm adjustment markings. Rear housing features an integral support rod holder with locking knob to accept an optional support rod and clamp kit.
Excellent temperature uniformity with consistent stirring at all speeds
Microprocessor controlled with built-in memory allowing recall of last set temperature (even if unit has been turned off)
Cool touch, chemically resistant housing
LED display for temperature
Choice of models with ceramic or aluminium top plates
Manufacturer warranty up to 5 years
The low profile design takes up less space and fits into fume hoods. Spill-resistant housing channels fluids away from internal components. Safety features include a 'hot' symbol warning light which is illuminated when heat is turned on and remains on until top plate cools down. Stir protection if stirrer motor stops or fails, unit will automatically shut down the heater. Enhanced electronics regulate both heating and stirring and bring samples to temperature quickly and efficiently. Temperature measurement is controlled more accurately by using a resistance thermometer (RTD). Ramping feature slowly increases speed for improved safety and enhanced coupling, avoids splashing, improves spin bar control, and provides excellent low end speed control. Ceramic tops feature a chemically resistant, reflective white top plate surface that is easy to clean. Durable aluminium tops will not crack or chip, and provide a more even heating surface.
Each unit is supplied complete with a PTFE coated magnetic stirring bar. Optional support rod kit is available which includes a 457 mm stainless steel support rod, thermometer/temperature probe extension clamp, three-prong medium swivel clamp and hook connector.
* Below 100 °C ±2 °C environmental and sample conditions permitting.
