Breakaway can occur when stirring at high speeds , when
large stirring bars are being driven at speeds close to the
maximum magnetically torque or sample viscosity changes.
Using MS-(H)-Pro, stirring bar breakaway monitoring
function can be set at the rotary speed range between 300
and 1500 rpm. When stirring bar breakaway is detected,
stirring is stopped immediately to enable the stirring bar
to be picked up. After this, stirring starts again and rotary
speed increases up to the set speed. If a further stirring bar
breakaway occurs within the next 3 minutes of stirring at a
constant set speed, the stirring bar will be picked up again
and stirring will restart but this time at the set speed reduced
by 100 rpm. The speed will be reduced each time in 100 rpm
steps until the minimum of 200 rpm is reached. In this case
you should select new test conditions.
IMPORTANT:
You must calibrate and test the stirring bar breakaway
monitoring function for your particular configuration taking
into account the stirring bars, speed, vessel and medium you
are using.
