Model US150 is an analogue hotplate from Stuart with a robust aluminium/silicon alloy top plate for excellent heat transmission
The top plate has a thin ceramic coating for added chemical resistance
A 700W element gives rapid heating and ensures even temperature distribution across the whole surface of the plate
The hot plate has microprocessor control and an innovative LED based true ¼C temperature setting system rather than simply a 1 to 10 arbitrary scale
A coloured LED indicator surrounds the heat control knob illuminating the actual surface temperature in real time
The unit can also be used in conjunction with the SCT1 digital contact thermometer to accurately control sample temperature rather than plate temperature
The 'Hot' warning light will flash whenever the plate temperature is above 50¼C even when the hot plate is turned off and unplugged from the mains
The units also include BioCote® antimicrobial protection which reduces the presence of odour and stain causing microbes such as bacteria, mould and fungi on the product surface by up to 99.99%
Formulated from silver ion additives, BioCote® provides built‐in antimicrobial protection to support a more hygienic laboratory environment
Please Note:
BioCote® technology does not protect users or others against disease causing bacteria, germs, viruses, or other harmful organisms
This technology is not a substitute for good hygiene and/or cleaning practices
