The unit can store ten programs in memory of as many as ten steps each where each step is a temperature, temperature ramp rate, stirring speed and time
Torrey Pines Scientific announces its new EchoTherm programmable digital stirring hot plate.
Ideally suited for use in chemical, pharmaceutical, environmental, biochemical, and other laboratories where reproducible, accurate, hands-off sample preparation and experimentation are a must.
With the easy to use EchoTherm model HS40, programming is done through the front panel membrane switch and full-functioned custom liquid crystal display.
The unit can store ten programs in memory of as many as ten steps each where 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 wanted.
All programs are stored electronically.
Heater plates are 20.3cmx20.3cm white, solid ceramic glass for excellent chemical resistance and quick heating.
The plate surface can be heated from ambient to 450C in less than three minutes.
Plate surface temperature or solution temperature can be controlled directly using the appropriate PID control loop to 1C of the target.
Accuracy is 1% of the reading using platinum RTD circuitry.
The units are supplied with temperature calibration certificates traceable to Nist.
Stirring speed is 100 to 1500 rpm and controlled by optical coupler to 10rpm.
Count down timer with alarm and user settable auto-off are standard.
An RS232 I/O port also is standard with the unit.
Various sample probes are available as accessories.
The model HS40 is available in 100, 115, and 230VAC, 50/60Hz models.
All units are UL, CSA, and CE certified.
