3 Function
The magnetic stirring systems MINI, MICRO, COMPACT and MAXI are used for
chemical, microbiological, biotechnical or medical purposes, e.g.:
Growing microorganisms (e.g. aerating and growing bacteria cultures),
Dissolving nutrient media and solids,
To prevent the settling of suspended matter,
Titration,
Integration in measurement equipment facilitating concurrent measurement
and stirring.
The MINI stirring system is designed for very small vessels such as cuvettes. It is
extremely small and flat, has a highly flexible flat-strip cable, and is suitable for
integration in measurement equipment.
The powerful and handy MICRO stirring system with its completely sealed stainless
steel body can be used for extended temperature ranges. This stirring system can be
attached to analyzers, experimental set-ups, or stands. For this purpose it is fitted with
an M4 thread at the bottom of the device.
The COMPACT and MAXI stirring systems are particularly suited for routine laboratory
tasks and larger stirring quantities. Thanks to their robust stainless steel bodies they
can also be used in water baths.
Liquids may be stirred in vessels of various shapes (e.g. cuvettes, conical (Erlenmeyer)
flasks, beakers and test tubes). As the rotation speed can be variably adjusted, liquids
can be both moved gently as well as vigorously mixed.
When the stirring vessel is placed on the stirring point (1), an electromagnetic field will
move the magnetic stirring bar.
When using the TELEMODUL 20 C / 40 C (5), you have a choice of stirring or vertically
mixing the liquid. During stirring operation, the liquid will rotate in the vessel. During
vertical mixing (shake mode), the current inside the vessel will be directed upwards and
downwards. The liquid will not rotate. The rotation or shaking frequency can be adjusted
continuously. The speed display shows the current rotating or oscillating speed of the
magnetic stirring bars. All magnetic stirring bars will be moving at the same frequency.
