2.0 Product Description
Corning® Hot Plates and Stirrers have been a laboratory standard for over 50 years. Our
products have been engineered with customer input to be reliable, precise, safe, and easy to
use. This product features:
◗
A microprocessor that provides linear control for both heating and stirring to ensure
consistent performance.
◗
Enclosed control electronics that protect sensitive components from harsh environments
and reduce maintenance time and costs.
◗
The Pyroceram® top plate is easy to clean and highly resistant to scratches, corrosion, and
chemical attack. It is also flatter to provide faster, more uniform heating, and is whiter to
provide better contrast during applications which require monitoring of color changes.
◗
Rigorous testing standards for electrical safety, EMI (Electro Magnetic Interference),
and regulatory approvals. Corning Hot Plates and Stirrers meet UL (USA), CSA (Canada),
IEC61010 CE (Europe), GS (Germany), FCC regulations and others where appropriate.
◗
International symbols for power, heat, stir, and hot top.
