No matter the lab size, your technicians deserve state-of-the-art equipment. For example, stirring is a used method of mixing liquids in any laboratory. To get the best results, you need to employ world-class stirring equipment.
Magnetic stirrers are the modern way and give out efficient results. The list below sheds more light on the importance of the system.
Less Maintenance
Magnetic stirring systems are known for not needing any repairs. Using magnetic technology ensures that no moving parts are involved in the process. Unlike the traditional stirrers, they are fitted with magnets.
Traditional stirrers employ mechanical moving parts such as belts, motors, and in some cases, bearings. Unfortunately, all these mechanical parts are prone to wear with time. This, in turn, will require you to have a maintenance fee.
The stirrers use a different approach. They are fitted with stationary coils whose activation is by using alternating currents. The alternating currents produce an electromagnetic field that has no wear and tear.
Ability to control the speed
Efficiency should be on your list of priorities while working in the lab. The systems can attain efficiency by using quality equipment.
In addition, they can control its speed remotely. As a result, the system can mix liquid samples rapidly and thoroughly. In addition, the magnetic stirrers offer you the ability to configure your machine according to the speed you want.
The control panel for this function is situated in a convenient place.
On top of that, stirrers give you the option of adding a hot plate. The hot plate allows you to mix and heat your samples simultaneously. Advantageously, the high temperatures of the hotplate won’t damage your machine in the process.
Space Efficient
Magnetic systems are designed not to take up much of your space. The systems are made to use a small space but at the same time be able to perform all your duties. This is due to its high-quality design.
The magnetic systems are fitted with four stationary coils that serve a single stirring point. However, the coils’ arrangement will ensure that each coil can drive four stirring points. One of the many advantages is that you get to have your stirring points working in sync.
