Product Description The SCI550-Pro is one of the most technically advanced hotplate-stirrers in the marketplace. With independent back-lit LCD displays for both heat and stirring functions and PID technology. The SCI550-Pro controls temperature at +/- 1ºC. It also incorporates a DC brushless (spark free) motor for extremely long life and excellent performance. It is widely used in chemical synthesis, physical and chemical analysis, biopharmaceuticals etc. Combining with glass ceramic work plate, brushless DC motor and external temperature sensor, the work plate temperature is optimized up to 550°C. Product Features Easy-to-read independent back-lit LCD displays for heat and stirring. Digital speed controlling, max. speed at 1500rpm Built-in PID controller ensures safe heating of the medium with overheating protection. Heat only, stir only or heat and stir together functions. Max. heating plate temperature 550°C Glass ceramic work plate provides excellent chemical resistant performance and most efficient heat transfer. RS232 for remote control, providing PC control and data transmission. Low temperature stability External temperature control is possible by connecting the temperature sensor (PT1000) with an accuracy at ±0.2°C. Accessory PT-1000 stand available (built in stand mount) Electronic speed control for constant speed even during changes in load Maintenance free DC brushless motor for long life and more stirring power Two rotating knobs enable easy adjustment of speed and temperature. High magnetic adhesion “HOT” warning will flash when the work plate temperature is above 50°C even when the hotplate is turned off. cTUVus approved for UL and CSA 2 YEAR WARRANTY
