Your Barnstead|Thermolyne SUPER-NUOVA hot plate or
stirring hot plate is a heating and/or stirring plate designed
for laboratory procedures requiring precise control of tem-
perature and/or stirring speed. Each SUPER-NUOVA model
includes a digital display for monitoring temperature and/or
stirring speed, and the stirring hot plate models have dual
displays so temperature and stirring speed can be moni-
tored simultaneously. The hot plate is capable of producing
accurately controlled top plate temperatures from 1°C
through 300°C. The temperature is controlled at the plate
surface by an internal Type K thermocouple sensor, or the
solution temperature may be controlled by utilizing the
included 6" PFA encapsulated ungrounded stainless steel
Type K thermocouple probe. A 6" or 10" general purpose
stainless steel immersion probe, or a chemical-resistant 7"
solid Teflon
® immersion probe may be ordered separately.
The stirrer will accurately maintain stirring speeds from 50
rpm up to 1200 rpm. On stirring hot plate models, the
accessory probe may also be utilized to display the actual
temperature of heat-sensitive solutions during stirring-only
functions. The top plate on the SUPER-NUOVA units are
solid aluminum, and are suitable for use with glass or metal
vessels and sand baths.
Other features of the SUPER-NUOVA include a timer that
can be used to shut off stirring, heating or both. Specific
temperature or stirring speed setpoints may be set using
the PRESETS buttons on the SUPER-NUOVA. An over
temperature protection (OTP) circuit can be set using the
adjustment on the front face of the unit. The OTP can be
displayed in the service menus. See “Service and
Calibration.”
An RS232 port is available on the SUPER-NUOVA to output
elapsed time, speed, and temperature data. The data is
printed once every second when the unit is powered on
(displays on). See “RS232 Output” in the Operation section
of this manual.
Your SUPER-NUOVA plate may be used for general pur-
pose heating applications and/or general laboratory mixing
of solutions, including sample preparation, heating
reagents, melting paraffin, warming resinous chemicals,
content analysis, solvent evaporations, digestions, media
preparation and sterilization, titrations, sand baths, and
microscale chemistry applications.
