Operating Conditions
Your Labnet hot plate, stirrer or stirring hot plate is a general purpose heating and/or stirring plate
designed for laboratory procedures requiring precise control of temperature and/or stirring speed.
Your hot plate, stirrer or stirring hot plate has the following properties:
1) Ceramic coated top plate: Ceramic coated top plate is corrosion proof, temperature resistant
and resists aggressive uids.
2) Coated in a pure white plate allows for easy observation of sample color change during use.
3) The top plate allows for quick thermal conduction and uniform surface temperature.
4) This device uses an electronic Analog temperature controller to control temperature
5) The Labnet Hot Plate Stirrers were designed to start and stop smoothly to prevent uid spill
over from rapid turnover and decoupling of stir bar.
6) The Labnet hot plate has an electronic feedback control which will accurately maintain tem-
perature.
Labnet hot plates, stirrers, and stirrer/hot plates are designed to provide safe functioning under the
following conditions:
• Indoor use
• Altitude up to 2000 meters (6,500 feet)
• Ambient temperatures of 0°C to 40°C
• Product should be placed on a at surface at least 30.5 cm (12”) from walls, 122 cm (48”)
from ceilings, and 30.5 cm (12”) from other hot plates if using multiple units.
• Maximum relative humidity of 85% for temperatures up to 31°C, decreasing linearly to 50%
relative humidity at 40°C.
• Pollution Degree 2: Any foreign matter that may accumulate on or within the product during
normal use is not electrically conductive.
• Installation Category II: Product is designed for connection to an electrical branch circuit inside
a building with main supply voltage uctuations not exceeding ±10% of the nominal voltage.

topower supply. Place your container or heating bath with the magnetic stirrer bar. Stirrer bar
should be placed in center of hot plate
2) Turn Power Switch ON.
Stirring Instructions
D0310, D0320
1. Fill vessel with solution to be stirred.
2. Place stir bar into vessel.
3. Turn power switch ON. Then Hot Top Indicator Lamp will illuminate.
4. Turn Stir Control Knob until the desired speed.
5. Speed On Indicator Lamp will illuminate when the motor runs.
6. Heating and stirring can be performed simultaneously on the D0320 models which offer both
heating and stirring functions.
7. When the desired stirring is complete, turn the Stir Control Knob to “0” position. Allow stir bar
to cease rotation before removing the vessel from the unit.
8. Disconnect Main power cord from the unit.
9. Keep the product dry and clean disconnecting Main power cord when the unit is not used for
a long time.
Note:
1) Range of speed control : 100~1500 RPM
2) Speed control knob in extreme left (CCW) position stops operating.
3) If motor does not run upon turning the knob, increasing until 100rpm or more
Please note that the viscosity of the stirred material will affect the ability of the stir bar to remain
coupled to the rotating ring magnet. Materials of high viscosity must be stirred at slower speed
settings.
