Features of Digital Ceramic Hot Plate Stirrer - AREC.X
Hot Plate Stirrers - Powerful Motor for High Range of Speeds:
AREC.X is equipped with an extremely powerful motor, able to stir volumes up to 15 liters (H2O) at very high speeds.
Another precious feature of this hot plate stirrer is the SpeedServo™ counter-reaction, which ensures constant speed even when the viscosity changes.
Hot Plate Stirrers - Front Panel:
The extremely bright and easy-to-read digital display constantly shows the temperature set by the operator.
By turning the left knob it is possible to adjust the temperature (up to 550 °C), whilst the right one controls the stirring speed (up to 1500 rpm).
Once the unit has been switched off or after havig set the temperature to zero, a "Hot Plate Warning" will be displayed, for improved safety. As soon as the temperature has cooled down to 50 °C, this warning will be automatically turned off.
Hot Plate Stirrers - Thermoregulation of the Liquid:
AREC.X can be connected to the external probe Pt100 (code A00000268), in order to get a system that allows a thermoregulation of the liquid.
The probe ensures thermoregulation up to 250 °C, with an accuracy of ± 1.0 °C.
For higher performance, AREC.X can be connected to the VTF Digital Thermoregulator.
VTF ensures perfect and precise thermoregulation up to 300 °C, with premium accuracy of ± 0.5 °C.
VTF is equipped with a timer, for unsupervised operation and increased productivity.
Hot Plate Stirrers - Innovative Technopolymer Body:
The hot plate stirrer AREC.X is the first to be entirely made with technopolymer, being ideal for premium resistance to acids, bases and solvents. We constantly focus on develop new premium materials, in order to offer innovative solution to our customers.
Creating an entirely new design means inventing new technology.
Hot Plate Stirrers - Maximum Protection Against Leakages - IP 42:
The hot plate stirrer AREC.X ensures a premium level of safety and protection for the user, thanks also to the elevated control panel and the dedicated run-off groove.
The control panel is easily accessible, is positioned at a safe distance from sources of heat and is protected against possible damage caused by liquid spills thanks to a dedicated run-off groove.
The pressure die-cast structure is designed so that accidental liquid spills cannot reach the internal parts of the unit.
Hot Plate Stirrers - Easy to Clean, Remarkable Resistance:
AREC.X is extremely easy to clean!
By using a cloth dampened, all the residues will be easily removed and the top plate will be perfectly clean.
At the same time, ceramic, which is an inert and very hard material, will offer outstanding resistance to almost any type of chemical or mechanical aggression; its surface characteristics remain unaltered over time.
Hot Plate Stirrers - Low Profile, Eye-Catching Design:
The hot plate stirrer AREC.X offers a highly innovative low profile and attractive design for an outstanding comfort.
Also the inclination of the front panel has been carefully studied to facilitate use.
