2.5 Combinations of vessels
Please use round, chemical resistant and where required heat-resistant
vessels made of glass or non-magnetic metal. You can use vessels up to
the maximum size stated in the spreadsheet 1.
The vessels should have a thin, even wall thickness. Flat glass bottoms
(without any curve to the inside) and smooth surfaces will improve the
operating characteristic of the magnetic stirring bar. Uneven surfaces
would reduce the stirring power and would cause reaming up of the
stirring bar’s gliding surface.
In case you intend to stir large amount of liquids, please chose such
stirring flasks that have a comparatively small diameter and thin bottom.
The magnetic stirring bar can then be centred better.

Please always place the flasks in the magnetic
centre of the magnetic stirrer. This will ensure the
optimum stirring effect!
