The MRC Laboratory Multi-Position Analog Aluminum Top Hotplate Stirrers are designed for years of reliable and trouble-free performance, even with 24/7 continuous operation. Made with a heavy-duty aluminum hotplate tops, made in Germany, maintenance free AC motors, a rugged housing, and analog controls, to provide exceptional value, performance, and reliability in industrial and laboratory hotplate stirrers.

Applications

• General lab and microbiology heating and stirring requirements,

• Distillations, extractions & digestions,

• Aqueous and general reagent heating,

• Media preparation,

• Liquid evaporation,

• Semiconductor baking,

• Acid/Base digestions (trace metal analysis),

• Sample drying,

• Microscale chemistry,

• Heat TLC plates,

• Paste, adhesive & solder (warning/curing),

• Solubility and viscosity studies,

• Reaction optimization.

Features

• Stirring and heating operations controlled individually,

• Provides gentle or vigorous mixing with wide range of stirring speeds,

• Strong magnetic coupling for continuous use in viscous liquids,

• Aluminum Top Plates: Easy to clean and chemically resistant, with excellent thermal conduction to uniformly distribute heat over the entire heating surface, excellent temperature uniformity and precise temperature stability,

• Analog controls provide each position with a temperature sensitive “stepless” adjustment to set and maintain stable temperature,

• Hydraulic thermostat hotplate sensor to minimize thermal overshoot and undershoot,

• Safety shut down of heater in the event of broken sensor,

• Illuminated 'Heat On' indicator for safety,

• Thermal radiation shields below top plate for safety and reliability, even during continuous high temperature operation,

• Aluminum housing with chemically resistant paint,

• Sturdy set screw support device at the rear of the base to holds standard labware mounting rod.
