About This Product
As a laboratory magnetic stirrer with heating, this unit mixes and warms solutions in one place, with both settings shown digitally so runs can be repeated. A strong magnet drives stirring elements from 20 to 70mm long. Power consumption is 8.5W when stirring and 550W when heating, and overheat protection guards the unit.
