Safety Regulations

The plug disconnects the instrument. Therefore, place the instrument where it can be quickly disconnected.

Place the power supply in the way to avoid liquid spills directly on it.

The stirred solution may release toxic, dangerous or poisonous gases. Adequate safety measures must be taken, in accordance with the safety regulations in force, including the presence of hood and personal protective equipment (masks, gloves, goggles, etc.).

Position the instrument on a flat surface, with a distance from the wall of 30 cm (at least).

Do not use with explosive and dangerous materials for which the equipment is not designed. The stirrer must not be used in explosive atmospheres.

It is responsibility of the user appropriately decontaminate the instrument in case of dangerous substances fall on or in it. It is also responsibility of the user to use safety substances for cleaning or decontaminating, which do not react with internal parts of the instrument or with the material contained in it. In case of doubts on the compatibility of a cleaning solution, contact the manufacturer or local distributor.

Do not use with explosive and dangerous materials for which the equipment is not designed. The stirrer must not be used in explosive atmospheres, in bain- marie and to stir combustible liquids that have a low combustion temperature. The minimum fire point of flammable solution is 200 °C. Only small amounts (< 50 ml) of flammable liquid can be used with the device.

In case of black-out, once the power is back the device will restart automatically.

Introduction

The MST magnetic stirrer is a small, simple and effective stirrer.
Thanks to the new brushless motor, the stirrer stays cold even after several days of continuous operation.
Thanks to the white cover surface it is specially designed for microtitrations, and it is extremely useful where reliable and small instrument is needed.
The stirring speed can be set using the frontal knob within a range of 80 – 1500 rpm
The stirrer display shows the speed set point.
The instrument is equipped with advanced functions as auto-reverse of the stirring direction, intermittent mode programs and integrated timer to meet users’ workflow and safety lock feature to avoid possible alteration of the working conditions

NOTE: it’s important to choose the most suitable magnetic stirring bar related to the quantity and the liquid to be stirred as well as to the type of the beaker. The magnetic stirring bar that satisfies most of the application is A00001056 (6x35mm).
