Torrey Pines Scientific, Inc. announces its new EchoTherm™ Model HS61 Large Surface Programmable Stirring Hot Plate with precise temperature ramping for use in chemical, pharmaceutical, environmental, biochemical and other laboratories where reproducible, accurate, hands-off sample preparation and experimentation are a must.
The unit stores ten programs in memory of as many as 10 steps. Each step is a temperature, temperature ramp rate, stirring speed and time. Each program can be made to repeat itself automatically from one to 98 times or infinitely if desired. All programs are stored electronically. Temperature ramping rates are settable in 1ºC/Hour increments from 1ºC/Hour to 450ºC/Hour.
The heater plate is a 12" x 12" solid ceramic for excellent chemical resistance and quick heating from ambient to 400°C. Accuracy is 1 per cent of the reading using platinum RTD circuitry. The units are supplied with temperature calibration certificates traceable to NIST and solution probe. Stirring speed is 100 to 1500 rpm and controlled by optical coupler to 10 rpm.
