Introduction
Hotplates
Stuart
®
offers a comprehensive range of hotplates, most units are
available with either a robust silicon metal alloy or ceramic surface.
Ceramic units offer better chemical resistance, and a higher
maximum temperature of 450°C. Our latest series of Undergrad
units also offer the option of a ceramic coated metal surface.
Stuart
®
hotplates are available in a variety of sizes, with the
smallest units a small footprint and surface size of 15 x 15cm, our
medium units offer a 30 x 30cm surface while the largest hotplate
units have a 30 x 50cm surface size. Capable of holding up to 30 x
100ml beakers simultaneously. All units are available with simple
analogue control and most are also available with more accurate
digital control.
In addition to the standard Stuart
®
hotplates we also offer
an acid resistant unit, the CP300. The CP300’s external
surfaces consist entirely of PTFE or ceramic to offer excellent
chemical resistance. The CP300’s control unit is remote to the
hotplate, so it could be housed outside of a fume cupboard
for example.
Our CR300 offers infra red heating as an alternative to the
traditional resistance element, the advantage of IR is that
the heat acts directly upon the sample. Allowing for the
fastest heat up times and the most accurate temperature
control.
Hotplate Stirrers
Hotplate stirrers are ideal for making solutions, combining the
heat with the action of a magnetic stirrer. As with the hotplates
most units are available with either a robust silicon metal alloy or
ceramic surface, with the Undergrad units adding a ceramic coated
metal surface . The Stuart
®
hotplate stirrers are also offered in
the Standard 15 x 15cm and 30 x 30cm sizes. As with the other
units digital and analogue models are generally available, and
additionally the SCT1 temperature controller is compatible with
the Undergrad units for accurate sample temperature control.
Stirrers
All Stuart
®
stirrers use powerful Neodymium magnets to offer the
strongest coupling to the stirrer bar and minimise decoupling.
Stuart hotplate stirrers are available in 15 x 15cm and 30 x 30cm.
With the addition of the three position unit, the SB161-3 with
individual speed control for up to three flasks. Additionally the
SM27 is available for field applications and can be powered by
standard “D” type batteries.
