Thermo Scientific offers an extensive selection of hot plates, magnetic stirrers and stirring hot plates for your laboratory requirements, that combine a superior performance with operational simplicity.
Models
Lab Hot Plates
Hotplates range from basic to specialty, and are available in multiple plate shapes and sizes, with either ceramic or aluminum surface to suit any lab’s needs. The uniform-heating hotplates feature temperature stability, durabilty, as well as remote-control access for safety and convenience.
Temperature accuracy is within ±1 degree. Some models have a safety hot top warning light, a timer, and a quick heat-up to maximum temperature.
Magnetic Stirrers
Magnetic stirrers are available in various rpm ranges with single or multi-points (4, 6, 15 or 60 stirring points), reaching up to 2400 rpm for lager applications. The speed control is reliable and accurate for general lab use. Additionally, the porfolio contains unique stirrers that can be submerged in water baths, used in CO2 incubators, or featuring slow speeds for cell culture.
Hot Plate Stirrers
Hot plate stirrers are offered in basic, standard and advanced models, e.g. explosion-proof for hazardous applications, and provide precise control, good quality and repetability. Standard models feature digital display, and accurate temperature and speed control with safety protection. On top of that, advanced models feature additional timer and programmable functionality.
Large Capacity Stirrers
Large capacity hot plates and stirrers are designed for heavy loads, offering the performance you need for large scale applications.
What are Thermo Scientific hot plates used for?
Thermo Scientific hot plates are professional laboratory devices designed for precise and controlled heating of samples. They are widely used in chemical, pharmaceutical, research, and quality control laboratories for solution preparation, evaporation, synthesis, and temperature-controlled reactions.
What is a magnetic stirrer and when is it used?
A magnetic stirrer is a laboratory device used to mix liquids evenly using a magnetic stirring bar. It is commonly applied in solution preparation, titrations, chemical reactions, and laboratory procedures that require consistent and homogeneous mixing.
What are the advantages of a hot plate stirrer?
A hot plate stirrer combines precise temperature control and adjustable stirring speed in one compact device. This makes it ideal for laboratories that require simultaneous heating and mixing with high reproducibility and accuracy.
What temperature range do Thermo Scientific hot plates offer?
Depending on the model, digital hot plates can reach temperatures up to approximately 540°C. They provide accurate temperature control and digital display, ensuring stable experimental conditions and reliable results.
What is the difference between ceramic and aluminum hot plate surfaces?
- Ceramic hot plates offer excellent chemical resistance and durability.
- Aluminum surfaces provide faster heat-up times and uniform heat distribution. The choice depends on the specific laboratory application and chemicals being used.
