Stirring Operation and Controls
• Exclusive closed-loop stirring control monitors and regulates the stirring
speed, sensing your requirements whether you’re stirring an aqueous,
viscous or semi-solid solution.
• Stirring control provides a “cushioned” reaction to large increases in speed
to minimize decoupling.
Operation: Fill vessel with solution, place stir bar provided into vessel
(stirrers and stirrer/hot plates only) and set vessel in the center of the top
plate. Plug line cord into a grounded power outlet, the green power indica-
tor light will illuminate. Turn stir knob clockwise to desired setting.
Amber stir light to the left of the knob will illuminate.
