Designed with a microprocessor-controlled dual thermocouple, this hot plate offers accurate temperature control and protection from overheating. A coloured LED indicator surrounds the heat control knob illuminating the actual surface temperature in real time. The square plate design allows flexibility of vessel sizes and combinations. Up to four 250-mL beakers can easily fit on the surface at the same time. To keep you safe, a “hot” warning light flashes whenever the plate surface temperature is above 50°C and continues to flash until the temperature drops below 50°C, even when unplugged. The unit also includes 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. Includes an integral fitting for a retort rod and allows the retort base to slide underneath. This unit has a coated aluminium top plate for rapid heating and better temperature uniformity. 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.

This analogue hotplate offers a large heating area of 180 x 180 mm with safe controlled heating up to 400°C. Constructed from chemically resistant ceramic coated steel, this hotplate delivers excellent reliability with reproducible results at a sensible price. A screwed 12.5 mm screwed thread is included for the addition of a retort rod (not included).
