switching off.
Protective ground contact！
•Make sure that socket must be grounded
(protective ground contact) before use.
• When working wear personal safety guards to avoid the
risk from:
- Splashing and evaporation of liquids
- Release of toxic or combustible gases
• Set up the instrument in a spacious are on a stable, clean,
non-slip, dry and fireproof surface. Do not operate the
instrument in explosive atmospheres, with hazardous
substances or under water.
• Gradually increase the speed, reduce the speed if:
- Stirring bar breaks away due to high speed
- The instrument is not running smoothly, or container
moves on the base plate
• Temperature must always be set to at least 50℃lower
than the fire point of the media used.
• Be aware of hazards due to:
- Flammable materials or media with a low boiling
temperature
- Overfilling of media
- Unsafe container
• Process pathogenic materials only in closed vessels.
• Check the instrument and accessories prior to each use.
Do not use damaged components. Safe operation is only
guaranteed with the accessories described in the
“Accessories” chapter. Accessories must be securely
attached to the device and can not come off by themselves.
Always disconnect the plug before fitting accessories.
• When the external temperature sensor needed, the tip of
the measuring sensor must be at least 5-10mm from vessel
bottom and wall.

7”Square Hotplate Magnetic Stirrer
• The instrument can only be disconnected from the main
power supply by pulling out the main or the connector plug.
• The voltage stated on the label must correspond to the
main power supply.
• Ensure that the main power supply cable does not touch
the hotplate. Do not cover the device.
• Forbid to put pressure and over heat media on the surface
of glass ceramic that can be caused surface broken.
• The instrument may only be opened by experts.
• Keep away from high magnetic field.
2. Proper use
The instrument is designed for mixing and/or heating
liquids in schools, laboratories or factories.
•Observe the minimum distances between the devices,
between the device and the wall and above the assembly
(min. 100 mm)
>100mm
>100mm

5. Trial run
• Make sure the required operating voltage and power
supply voltage match.
• Ensure the socket must be properly grounded.
• Plug in the power cable，ensure the power is on and begin
initializing.
• Add the medium into the vessel with an appropriate
stirring bar.
• Place vessel on the work plate.
• Set the target stirring speed and begin.
• Set the target temperature and start heating (hotplate
model).
• Stop the heating and stirring functions.
If these operations above are normal, the device is ready to
operate. If these operations are not normal, the device may
be damaged during transportation, please contact
manufacturer/supplier for technical support.
Warning !
Forbid to transfer the vessel when the instrument
working.

6. Working with external
temperature sensor (Hotplate
Model)
Figure 7
6.1 LCD digital hotplate model
The external temperature sensor PT1000 is manufacture’s
standard accessory. If the sensor is plugged in, “Probe” will
be shown on the LCD digital display to indicate the sensor
is operating. The setting value of external temperature
sensor and actual temperature are displayed. Safe circuit
controls hotplate temperature. Comparing with the
temperature control of the hotplate, the external
temperature sensor can control the medium’s temperature
more precise. The heating function will be stopped
automatically under abnormal conditions. Please operate
follow the instructions below:
•Switch OFF the instrument.
•Ensure the external temperature sensor is inserted in
the media heated.
•Switch ON the instrument and run heating function.
If the heating function does not work, please contact
manufacturer/supplier for technical support.
6.2 LED digital hotplate model
The external temperature sensor PT1000 is the
manufacture’s standard accessory. If the sensor is plugged
in and rotate the heating knob, LED displays the
temperature setting value and shifts to real value in 5
seconds. Safe circuit controls hotplate temperature.
Comparing with the temperature control of the hotplate, the
external temperature sensor can control the medium’s
temperature more precise. The heating function will be
stopped automatically under abnormal conditions. Please

10
7”Square Hotplate Magnetic Stirrer
operate follow the instructions below:
•Switch OFF the instrument.
•Ensure the external temperature sensor is inserted in
the media heated.
•Switch ON the instrument and run heating function.
If the heating function does not work, please contact
manufacturer/supplier for technical support.
7. Residual heat warning（HOT）
In order to prevent the risk of burns from the hotplate,
digital hotplate model has a residual heat warning function.
When the heating function is switched off and the heating
plate temperature is still above 50°C, “Hot” will flash to
warn that there is a hazard of burns from the hotplate. When
the hotplate temperature drops to below 50°C, the unit will
automatically switch off. If users want to turn off the LCD
or LED screen immediately, just pull out the plug directly.
When the power OFF, the residual heat warning function
cannot be run.
8. Remote Control (LCD Digital
model)
Figure 8
The unit can be controlled from an external PC (using the
dedicated software) via the RS232C serial interface fitted to
the unit. Data communication from laboratory instrument to
computer is only possible on demand of the computer.
•The functions of the interface lines between laboratory
instrument and automation system are selected from
the specified signals of the EIA-standard RS232C,
corresponding with DIN66020 Part 1. The allotment of
the bushing can be taken from Figure 8.
•Transmission method: Asynchronous signal

11
7”Square Hotplate Magnetic Stirrer
transmission in start-stop-operation.
•Mode of transmission: Fully Duplex. 1 start bit; 7
character bits; 1 parity bit [straight (even]); 1 stop bit.
•Transmission speed: 9600 bit/s
•Start remote control knob, LCD displays “ Remote ”.
Note:
Forbid to insert or remove the RS232C
communication line when switch ON!
9. Faults
•Instruments can’t be power ON
-Check whether the power line is unplugged
-Check whether the fuse is broken or loose
•Fault in power ON self test
-Switch OFF the unit, then switch ON and reset the
instruments to factory default setting.
•Stir speed cannot reach set point
-Excessive medium viscosity may cause abnormal
speed reduction of the motor
•Unit cannot be powered OFF when switched OFF.
-Check if the residual heat warning function is still ON
and hotplate temperature is above 50 ℃(the
LCD/LED screen still work and “Hot” flash).
If these faults are not resolved, please contact
manufacturer/supplier.
10.Maintenance and Cleaning
•Proper maintenance can keep instruments working
properly and lengthen its lifetime.
•Do not spray cleanser into the instrument when
cleaning.
•Unplug the power line when cleaning.
•Only use recommended cleansers:
Dyes
Isopropyl alcohol
Construction materials
Water containing tenside /
Isopropyl alcohol
Cosmetics
Water containing tenside /
Isopropyl alcohol
Foodstuffs
Water containing tenside
Fuels
Water containing tenside
•Wear the proper protective gloves during cleaning of
the instrument.
•Before using other method for cleaning or
decontamination, the user must ascertain with the
manufacturer that this method will not harm the
instrument.

12
7”Square Hotplate Magnetic Stirrer
•Send in the case of service the instrument back in the
packaging carton. Storage packing is not sufficient for
the back dispatch. Use additionally a suitable
transportation packing.
•The enamel makes the hotplate easier to care for and
more resistant to acids and bases. Because of it,
however, the hotplate is also more susceptible to
extreme fluctuations in temperature and the force of
impact. This can result in cracks forming or the
coating flaking off.
Warning！
Power OFF when maintenance and cleaning.
