FAQs – Hot Plate with Magnetic Stirrer

Q1: How does the magnetic stirrer work?
A: A magnetic stirrer rotates a magnetic stir bar placed inside the liquid using a rotating magnetic field generated by the motor beneath the hot plate.

Q2: Can I control the temperature and stirring speed separately?
A: Yes, most models feature separate controls for temperature and stirring speed, allowing precise customization based on experiment requirements.

Q3: Is it safe for all types of laboratory liquids?
A: Yes, the surface is typically resistant to most chemicals. However, always check compatibility with highly corrosive substances.

Q4: What is the maximum temperature the hot plate can reach?
A: Depending on the model, the maximum temperature usually ranges between 250°C to 400°C.

Q5: Is it suitable for use in schools and educational labs?
A: Absolutely. It is a commonly used tool in educational institutions for chemistry and biology lab experiments.

Q6: Does it come with a magnetic stir bar?
A: Yes, most units include at least one magnetic stir bar. Additional bars can be purchased separately.

Q7: Can I use it without the stirring function?
A: Yes, you can operate just the heating function if stirring is not required.
