IKA RCT Digital Hot Plate with Magnetic Stirrer

The IKA Plate (RCT digital) has a round top made of aluminum alloy. It stirs volumes of up to 20l (H2O) and runs at speeds ranging from 50-1500 rpm. Strongly standing by its product and technology, unparalleled in the industry; scientists can focus on their experiments with a reliable stir plate. 

Some of the features are: 

IKA emphasizes ease-of-use by design simplicity

Reduced forms and operating elements meet the modernity of smartphones

Using Alnico magnetic technology, the IKA Plate (RCT digital) achieves excellent temperature stability and high residual induction. It also provides for maximum vortex. The integrated timer and counter function supports the control of kinetics and sensitive reactions; the IKA SmartTemp function protects users intelligently and predictably. PT 1000.60 temperature sensor included in the scope of delivery.
