Description
The VWR 97042-674 Standard Hotplate Stirrer is designed for general-purpose laboratory use.
- Excellent temperature uniformity
- Enhanced electronic features
- Cool touch, chemical-resistant housing
- Industry Leading Safety Features
These microprocessor controlled, analog units are equipped with easy-to-use, dial-adjustment controls.
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.
Hot plate stirrers are available with ceramic or aluminum top plates. Ceramic top plates feature an easy-to-clean, chemical-resistant, reflective white surface. Aluminum top plates will not crack or chip, and offer a more even heating surface. 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.
Certifications: RoHS certified. TUV listed.
