• Cool touch, chemical resistant housing
• Includes RTD temperature probe kit

Talboys Professional hotplates, stirrers, and hotplate-stirrers are designed for applications that require exceptional accuracy, stability, and repeatability. Exclusive safety system helps protect operator and sample. Enhanced microprocessor control offers an external RTD probe option that delivers superior temperature control of the sample. Stirring function, with continuous duty motor and powerful magnet, maintains set speed even under changing load or viscosity. Separate LED displays for temperature, speed, and time allow user to view all settings at once.

Operating Features:

Low profile design: Takes up less space and fits into fume hoods. Spill-resistant housing channels fluids away from internal components.

Microprocessor control: Enhanced electronics regulate both heating and stirring and bring samples to temperature quickly and efficiently. Temperature measurement is controlled more accurately by utilizing an RTD. Speed is precisely controlled, and provides consistent stirring at all speeds. Powerful continuous duty motor delivers dependable and reliable stirring.

Control panel: Touch pad controls with easy-to-read, independent LED displays for temperature, speed, and time allow operator to view all settings at once. Provides repeatable and accurate results every time and is easily visible from outside fume hoods or across lab benches. Shows set-point and actual temperatures. Timer will display elapsed time or when programmed to user defined limit, will shut off unit when time reaches zero. Display will show last used settings, even after power has been turned off.

Ceramic or aluminum top plate materials: Ceramic tops feature a chemical resistant, reflective white top plate surface that is easy to clean. Durable aluminum tops will not crack or chip, and provide a more even heating surface.

Built-in support rod holder: Rear housing features an off centered, built-in support rod holder with locking knob that accepts the probe kit supplied with heating models.

RTD probe kit: Heating models are supplied with a probe kit which includes an 8" (20.3cm) stainless steel RTD temperature probe, 12" (30.5cm) flex arm, interchangeable 3-prong clamp head, 2-prong clamp head and spring clamp head.

Safety Features:

Cool Touch Housing: Housing is made of a heat resistant polymer that is not only cool to the touch but also is chemical resistant.

Hot Top Indicator: Hot warning symbol light is illuminated when heat is turned on and remains on until top plate cools down. (for Hotplates or Hotplate-Stirrers)

Stir Protection: If stirrer motor stops or fails, unit will automatically shut down heater. (for Hotplate-Stirrers)

Ramping Feature: Slowly increases speed for improved safety and enhanced coupling. Avoids splashing, improves spin bar control and provides excellent low end speed control. (for Stirrers or Hotplate-Stirrers)

Maximum Temperature Limiting: Ensures plate temperature will never exceed users programmed set temperature limit, allowing for control of sensitive flash points. (for Hotplates or Hotplate-Stirrers)

Audible Alarm: In timed mode, alarm will sound when time reaches zero or when unit reaches set-point temperature. (for Hotplates or Hotplate-Stirrers)

Probe Protection: If probe disengages from sample, unit will automatically shut off heater. (for Hotplates or Hotplate-Stirrers)

Operating Conditions:

Units can be run in environments from 5 to 40 °C (41 to 104°F)
