Description
This magnetic stirrer is suitable for volumes up to 20 l (H2O) and can reach temperatures up to 310°C. Thanks to the possibility of connecting an external temperature sensor (PT 1000.60 included in delivery), the temperature can be measured and monitored directly in the reaction medium.
Thanks to the perfect isolation of the aluminum heating plate, the EC motor and the electronically commutated power supply, the RCT basic offers excellent energy efficiency and reduces self-heating of the heating plate during stirring.
Advantages of the RCT basic magnetic stirrer
- Shatterproof tempered glass surface for optimum chemical resistance and easy cleaning
- Large and easy-to-read LED display
- Symbol lights for displaying important status information (set and actual temperature, heating status, temperature sensor).
- USB and RS232 interface for control or documentation of test parameters via PC
- Suitable for use with labworldsoft software
- QR code for quick access to device information, accessories, downloads and extended warranty
- Main switch accessible from front of unit
Technical features
- 135mm-diameter aluminium heating plate for uniform heat transfer
- Excellent magnetic coupling
- Soft start-up preventing the magnetic stirring bars from coming loose during the start-up phase.
- Two optimized temperature control modes ensure rapid heating or precise temperature control without overshoot
- Push-buttons for independent setpoint adjustment and start/stop of temperature and speed
- Speed from 50 to 1500 rpm adjustable via rotary knob
- 600 W heating power
- Temperature adjustment range from 0 to 310°C
Safety: The RCT basic incorporates the proven safety features of IKA magnetic stirrers. In compliance with DIN EN 61010-2-010, it meets all safety requirements for laboratory equipment designed to heat substances, and is therefore also suitable for unattended operation.
- Tested and certified by TÜV SÜD to IEC 61010-1 (cTÜVus)
- Safety circuit for heating plate temperature setting (with tool)
- Confirmation mode (operating mode D) prevents unintentional setpoint changes. When restarting, confirmation of the safety temperature is required.
- Automatic shutdown of the temperature control function if the connected external temperature sensor is not immersed in the medium or is not working properly.
- Enclosed design (protection class IP42) guarantees long service life, even under extreme laboratory conditions.
- Reliable operation, even with cold fluids. Extended temperature display down to -20°C (with external sensor).
- Protected electronic connections on the back of the unit.
- Fireproof die-cast aluminum housing, with high-quality durable powder coating.
- DIN 12878 socket for connection of an electronic contact thermometer, e.g. ETS-D5, for temperature control in case of strong presence. In this combination, the experimental device is complemented by an independent safety circuit for the reaction medium.
