Model US152 is an analogue hotplate and stirrer from Stuart
It has a robust aluminium/silicon alloy top plate for excellent heat transmission
The top plate has a thin ceramic coating for added chemical resistance
A 750W element gives rapid heating and ensures even temperature distribution across the whole surface of the plate
The hot plate has an innovative LED temperature indicator scale and can also be used in conjunction with the SCT1 digital contact thermometer to accurately control sample temperature
The 'Hot' warning light will flash whenever the plate temperature is above 50¼C even when the hot plate is turned off and unplugged from the mains
Powerful magnets and motor give stirring speeds up to 2000rpm and is capable of mixing large volumes (up to 15 litres)
