IKA EUROSTAR 400 Overhead Stirrer

Overview

Powerful laboratory stirrer for high viscous applications and intensive mixing for quantities up to 150 l (H2O). It automatically adjusts the speed within the range of 0/6 – 2000 rpm (two speed ranges) through microprocessor controlled technology. Integrated safety circuits ensure automatic cut-off in an anti-stall or overload conditions. Continuous comparison of shaft to desired speed is performed and variations are adjusted automatically. This ensures constant speed even with changes in viscosities of the sample.

Features:

• Digital speed display (digital model)
• Infinitely adjustable speed
• Push-through agitator shafts (does not apply to the control P4 model)
• Overload protection
• Short-term overload operation
• Slim casing
• Quiet operation
• Error code display

Control Models The control stirrer comes equipped with a RS 232 and a USB interface to control and document all parameters. An integrated torque trend display is provided for the measurement of viscosity changes. 

Additional Features on Control Models:

• Multilingual TFT display 
• Programmable functions
• Integrated temperature measurement
• Interval operation
• Timer function
• Adjustable safety circuit
• Locked function
• H 67.60 temperature sensor and WH 11 WiCo holder included in delivery

FAQ

I am working with a volatile, flammable solvent. Are the EUROSTAR overhead stirrers suitable for use with flammable vapors?

No, they are not. To do so, they would need to carry an explosion-proof certification, which they do not have.

 

Can the EUROSTAR overhead stirrers be used in a clean room?

The EUROSTAR stirrers are not designed for cle
