Description
The Fisher Scientific Isotemp Magnetic Stirrer is a reliable, high-performance laboratory instrument designed to meet the rigorous demands of general chemical, biological, and diagnostic applications. Engineered with a focus on user safety and operational longevity, this unit serves as a workhorse for tasks ranging from simple buffer preparation to complex, long-term chemical synthesis.
At the core of its design is a premium, heavy-duty ceramic top plate. This reflective white surface not only provides excellent visual contrast for monitoring color-changing reactions and sample behavior, but it also offers exceptional thermal shock resistance and inertness against aggressive acids, bases, and organic solvents.
To ensure consistent performance under changing laboratory conditions, the Isotemp stirrer utilizes an advanced internal drive system. This mechanism maintains tight control over rotation speeds, preventing the magnetic stir bar from decoupling or spinning out of control when encountering high-viscosity fluids or sudden speed adjustments. The low-profile, rugged cast-aluminum housing is intentionally sculpted with a sloped front panel, keeping the control knobs safe from accidental spills while optimizing benchtop space. Whether utilized in high-throughput academic laboratories or strict industrial R&D environments, the Isotemp stirrer delivers the precise fluid dynamics and robust reliability required for reproducible experimental results.
Features:
-
Chemical-Resistant Top Plate: Features a premium ceramic surface that resists corrosive acids, bases, and solvents, and is exceptionally easy to clean.
-
Stir Trac™ Technology: Integrates an advanced magnetic coupling system that prevents stir bar decoupling (“spin-outs”) and ensures smooth, low-speed regulation.
-
Ergonomic Control Interface: Built with an angled front panel to protect the controls from accidental spills and provide optimal visibility during operation.
-
Spill-Safe Design: Constructed with an integrated drainage channel to divert accidental liquid spills away from the internal electronics and motor assembly.
-
Stable Footprint: Heavy-duty cast aluminum base housing minimizes vibration and keeps the unit firmly planted on the lab bench.
