The digital hotplate, stirrers and hotplate stirrers come with a durable and chemical resistant 7 x 7in ceramic platform – allowing a large work surface to mix and heat up to 5L. Its space saving design (7.5 x 11.5in footprint) makes the units ideal for use on crowded benchtops, biological safety cabinets and hoods. Advanced microprocessor controls allow quick, precise adjustment of speed and temperature. The display provides constant visualization of the speed and temperature while a safety LED indicates when the top plate is above 50°C. In addition, an optional probe is available for applications that require precise temperature control. When connected, the probe provides direct feedback to the microprocessor, which continuously adjusts and maintains the selected temperature in the sample within +/- 1°C.
