The MRC Laboratory Digital Ceramic Top Hotplates are designed for years of reliable and trouble-free performance, even with 24/7 continuous performance. Made with a high temperature ceramic hotplate top, rugged housing, and digital controls to provide exceptional value, performance, and reliability in industrial and laboratory hotplates.

Applications

• General lab and microbiology heating 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

• High impact ceramic top plate: 

• Excellent strength and acid and alkali resistance, and

• Remains flat at temperature to ensure maximum heat transfer,

• Reflective white top for easy sample viewing,

• Rapid heating to reach 500°C maximum in about 8 minutes,

• Not recommended for use with metal vessels.

• PID microprocessor controller with easy setup and operation: 

• Provides digital temperature display (°F or °C) with illuminated readout for quick and easy observation,

• Precise temperature regulation over full temperature range, even at low settings close to the ambient, making it ideal for processing delicate materials at low temperature,

• Closed loop feedback control of temperature range by PID microprocessor, to monitor sudden changes, prevents boil-overs, destroyed samples and lost time,

• Temperature may be controlled either at the plate surface by internal sensor, or by signal from a thermocouple immersion probe,

• Digital timer and ramp to temperature function,

• Digital set-point and read-out of actual temperature,

• Previously stored set point in memory displayed when unit is turned on.

• 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.
