IKA
Magnetic Stirrers
IKA magnetic stirrers are the world's best-selling professional lab mixers. There is a complete range of IKA magnetic stirrers to handle various quantities, either with or without heating capabilities. Used with open or closed vessels, IKA magnetic hot plate stirrers easily master even complex tasks. For example, they precisely and effectively regulate the set temperature with the help of a contact thermometer. They also enable multiple syntheses in up to 36 vessels simultaneously. Because IKA magnetic stirrers require 25% less energy than other manufacturer's products; IKA devices are good for the environment and also keep your energy costs low. Functionality, safety, and longevity are the main focus in the development of IKA's magnetic stirrers. IKA is introducing two new magnetic stirrers, the IKA Plate (RCT digital) and the C-Mag HS 7 control, both with a lifetime warranty.
RCT digital
-
The IKA Plate (RCT digital) has a round top made of aluminum alloy. It stirs volumes of up to 20l (H2o) and runs at speeds ranging from 50-1500rpm.
-
Strongly standing by its product and technology, IKA is offering a lifetime warranty on the magnetic stirrer – unparalleled in the industry; scientists can focus on their experiments with a reliable stir plate.

-
Some of the features are: IKA emphasizes ease-of-use by design simplicity: reduced forms and operating elements meet the modernity of smartphones: IKA not only focuses on hardened glass because of visibility, chemical resistance and safety, it also optically changes the game of a magnetic stirrer with a glass surface. The IKA Plate (RCT digital) improves over time with regular firmware updates. Using Alnico magnetic technology, the IKA Plate (RCT digital) achieves excellent temperature stability and high residual induction. It also provides for maximum vortex. The integrated timer and counter function supports the control of kinetics and sensitive reactions; the IKA SmartTemp® function protects users intelligently and predictably.

PT 1000.60 temperature sensor included in the scope of delivery
C-MAG HS 7 Control
The IKA C-Mag HS 7 control has a square top made of ceramic. It stirs volumes of up to 20l (H2o) and runs at speeds ranging from 50-1500rpm. IKA’s stands strongly by its product and technology and is offering a lifetime warranty for this product – scientists can focus on their experiments using a reliable hotplate stirrer. IKA not only focuses on hardened glass because of visibility, chemical resistance and safety, it also optically changes the game of a magnetic stirrer with a glass surface. The C-Mag HS 7 control improves over time with regular firmware updates – control of kinetics and sensitive reactions are supported by the integrated timer and counter function – the IKA SmartTemp® function protects user intelligently. PT1000 temperature sensor included.

RCT 5 Digital
The new magnetic stirrer RCT 5 digital with 850 W offers significantly more power making it an ideal device for demanding stirring tasks up to 20 l.
Multifunctional menu
Whether determining the direction of rotation, timer functions or sequence programming - the stirring process can be programmed individually from beginning to end. In this way, the reaction runs reliably and safely even without monitoring.

Scratch-resistant ceramic coating
RCT 5 digital has a rectangular set-up plate with a white, ceramic coating. It is less scratch-prone than conventional magnetic stirrer plates.
Safety features
The display is made of chemical resistant and hardened glass which increases the safety of the user. In addition, a symbol in the display warns in case of a hot surface and therefore protects from burnings. The safety circuit can be adjusted up to 370 °C.
RET Control-Visc
PATENTED WORLD FIRST: Safety magnetic stirrer with heating and integrated balance. Clear, multilingual TFT display makes it easy to set all parameters.
Integrated temperature control feature enables connection of a temperature probe, placed directly in the medium, to control medium temperature with a high degree of precision. PT 100 temperature sensor is included. The stainless steel composite hot plate, reaching a temperature of 340 °C, enables rapid heating.

RS 232 and USB interfaces enable pc control of the magnetic stirrer and documentation of all test parameters. "Lock" function prevents inadvertent changes of speed and temperature settings. As a safety feature, the current temperature is displayed when the unit is switched off but surface is still hot. Below 50 °C the display turns off automatically.
