37028-0001, Cool Stir Large Volume Magnetic Stirrer
The Cool Stir® Large Volume Magnetic Stirrer safely and effectively mixes liquid volumes from 10 liters up to 208 liters (2.5 to 55 gallons) using inert PTFE magnetic stirring bars.
An internal high strength aluminum frame and large chemical resistant polypropylene platform are built to safely support up to 220kg (485lbs) allowing stirring in a standard plastic drum. A direct drive motor rotates a powerful rare earth driving magnet that couples optimally with 76 through 160mm (3” through 6”) stirring bars typically used to stir in large vessels. Mixing speed is variable to approximately 600 rpm (maximum practical rpm dependent on volume and viscosity) for gentle stirring up to aggressive agitation with full depth vortex. All electronic controls and the 100 watt (1⁄8 horsepower) motor are insulated to prevent any heat transfer to valuable solutions.
Sturdy, chemical resistant, polypropylene side panels are easy to clean in case of spills and protect users from all moving parts.
Optimal stirring performance will be achieved by using flat bottom containers that minimize the magnetic coupling distance between the stirrer driving magnet and the stirring bar. This unit is designed to work optimally with stirring bars that are 3 to 6” in length.
Features:
- Direct drive motor rotates a powerful rare earth magnet that couples optimally with 3" through 6" stirring bars (F37122 series and F37118 series - not included).
- Rugged built-in aluminum support system and durable polypropylene platform are engineered to carry up to 220kg (485lbs); permits mixing in a regular plastic barrel or drum.
- Unit and its 100 watt (1/8 horsepower) motor are air cooled, and heat transmission to thermolabile solutions is prevented by the use of insulation.
- Polypropylene sides are simple to clean.
