The CAT MCS78 is Everything You Need in a Magnetic Hotplate Stirrer A multi-tasking hotplate stirrer with 600 watts heating power and a 4-step timer system allowing for the generation of user-defined temperature and stirring profiles.
Set temperatures 20⁰C to 440⁰C in 1⁰C increments; speeds soft-start 60-1600 rpm.
For each timer step the following parameters can be set: hotplate and sensor temperature, motor speed and temperature-slope.
Algorithms to reach the programmed temperatures as fast as possible but with minimal overshoot.
