Benchmark™ Digital Hotplates, Stirrers, and Hotplate Stirrers

  • Large white ceramic top plate
  • Digital speed and temperature control
  • Safety LED indicates hot surface
  • Available with stir capacities up to 15 L
  • Control actual temperature (with optional probe)

Benchmark Scientific Hotplates and Stirrers provide reliable performance and safe operation for everyday laboratory use.  With two sizes (7 inch or 10 inch) to choose from, each model features a durable, chemical resistant, white ceramic top plate and advanced microprocessor controls.  The constant monitoring system provides precise control of temperature (heating models only) with rapid heating and faster boiling times.  In addition, the powerful motor drive system of the magnetic stirrer ensures efficient mixing in larger vessels and more viscous samples.
 
Temperature and/or mixing speed can be viewed at all times on the large digital display and safety LED illuminates when the top plate temperature exceeds 50°C.  An optional external temperature probe can be used for applications that require precise temperature control.  The probe provides direct feedback to the microprocessor with adjustments for maintaining the selected sample temperature within ±1°C.  An optional clamp assembly (H3770-CS) is available for mounting thermometers, temperature probes, etc.

  • Includes complete stand assembly
  • Compact and quiet
  • Digital accuracy and convenience

 

Benchmark’s Overhead Stirrers feature high torque and advanced digital microprocessor control for smooth mixing of low and medium-viscosity samples. Speed and run-time are accurately set and monitored on the LCD screen. Both the 20 L and 40 L capacity models are supplied with a 4-arm stainless steel propeller, additional steel and Teflon accessories are available. 

 

A feed-through chuck holds accessory shafts firmly in place and is easily tightened and loosened without tools. The overhead stirrers are protected from damage by sensors that shut down operation in the case of high viscosity or obstruction, while a splash cover protects the connection mechanism from potential corrosion. Unlike most mixers, the Benchmark series is also supplied with a support stand and mounting hardware. The stirrer easily and securely attaches to the stand for compatibility with a variety of vessels, up to 24 inches high.
