1.3. Package Contents
• Hotplate-Stirrer / Hotplate / Stirrer Unit
• Power Cord (pre-attached for 10x10-120V units)
• Stir Bar (40 x 8 mm)
1.4. Installation
Upon receiving the Ohaus Hotplate-Stirrer / Hotplate / Stirrer check to ensure that no damage has occurred during
shipment. It is important that any damage that occurred in transport is detected at the time of unpacking. If you do
find such damage, the carrier must be notified immediately.
After unpacking, place the Hotplate-Stirrer / Hotplate / Stirrer on a level bench or table, away from explosive
vapors. Ensure that the surface on which the unit is placed will withstand typical heat produced by the unit and
place the unit a minimum of six (6) inches from vertical surfaces. Do not position the equipment such that it is
difficult to disconnect the power cord during use. Always place the unit on a sturdy work surface.
The Hotplate-Stirrer / Hotplate / Stirrer is supplied with a 3 conductor, grounded power cord that should be plugged
into a matching standard grounded outlet. If the cord supplied does not meet your needs, please use an approved
power cord that has ratings equal or exceeding those of the originally provided cord and that complies with the
local/national regulations of the country in which the equipment is to be used. Replacement of the plug must be
made by a qualified electrician.

2 OPERATION
2.1 Getting Ready
To get ready:
1. Plug the female end of the provided power cord into
PEM (G) on the rear side of the unit.
Note: For the 10x10-120V unit, this end of the power
cord is fixed to the rear side of the unit.
2. Plug the male end of the power cord into a matching
standard grounded outlet.
3. The unit will beep once and the screen will illuminate
with three displays:
a) The first will display the unit type (left) and the
software version (right).
b) The second will display the unit’s electrical
power (left) and frequency (right).
c) The third will be the unit’s main operating
screen.
Note: If the third screen is blank and the red
standby indicator (B) to the left of the screen is
illuminated, the unit is in standby mode.
2.2 Standby Mode
1. The rocker switch (I) on the right side of the unit
controls standby mode.
2. When the unit is switched off:
a) All heating and stirring functions will turn off.
b) The screen will be blank and the standby
indicator (B) to the left of the screen will be
illuminated.
If the heater temperature is above 40°C, the
hot top caution indicator will remain
illuminated as well as the current top plate
temperature and “HOT”.
3. When the unit is switched on:
a) All heating and stirring functions will remain
off.
b) The main operating screen will return.
Previous heating and stirring settings will be
displayed.
c) The unit is ready for normal use.
Guardian 5000 Series EN-17
2.3 Controlling the Stirrer
STIRRING OPERATING TIPS
The stirrer increases speed at a steady rate until the setpoint is reached. If the stirrer is not reaching its setpoint: 1)
the stir bar may be too large, 2) the liquid may be too viscous, 3) the setpoint speed may need to be reduced.
Additionally, the magnetic strength of stir bars reduce over time and may need to be replaced.
When heating and stirring a reaction vessel within an oil bath or similar set-up, the stirring function will stir up to
approximately one inch (2.5 cm) from the top plate. The stirring speed will vary according to liquid viscosity, spin
bar length, and distance from top plate. Adjust one or all of these to achieve the desired stirring speed. For
example: the closer the reaction vessel is to the top plate, the strong the magnetic connection between the unit and
the stir bar.
1. Rotate the right knob (D) to control the speed setting
(S).
a) Clockwise rotation will increase the speed
setting (S).
b) Counterclockwise rotation will decrease the
speed setting (S).
2. To turn on the stirrer, press and hold the right knob
(D) until the unit beeps and the stirrer indicator (T)
illuminates.
a) The unit will beep once to confirm the stirrer
has been turned on.
b) The stirrer indicator (T) next to the “RPM”
symbol will blink to indicate that the stirrer is
on and ramping to the target speed.
c) Once the stirrer has reached the target speed,
the speed setting indicator (R) will disappear
and the stirrer indicator (T) will stop blinking
and remain illuminated.
3. To change the speed setting while the stirrer is on:
a) Rotate the right knob (D) to the new speed
setting.
The speed setting (S) will blink to indicate that
the speed setting is not confirmed.
b) Briefly press the right knob (D) to confirm the
new speed setting.
The speed setting (S) will stop blinking once
the new setting is confirmed.
Note: If the speed setting (S) remains idle without
confirmation for 4 seconds, it will reset to the
current setting.
4. To turn off the stirrer, press and hold the right knob
(D) until the unit beeps and the stirrer indicator (T)
disappears.
a) The unit will beep once to confirm the stirrer
has been turned off.
b) The stirrer indicator (T) next to the “RPM”
symbol will disappear to indicate that the
stirrer is off.
c) The speed setting indicator (R) will illuminate.
EN-18 Guardian 5000 Series
2.4 Controlling the Top Plate Heater
1. Rotate the left knob (C) to control the heat setting (L).
a) Clockwise rotation will increase the heat
setting (L).
b) Counterclockwise rotation will decrease the
heat setting (L).
2. To turn on the heater, press and hold the left knob
(C) until the unit beeps and the heater indicator (M)
illuminates.
a) The unit will beep once to confirm the heater
has been turned on.
b) The heater indicator (M) will illuminate next to
the “°C” symbol to indicate that the heater is
running.
c) The current heater temperature (L) will be
alternately displayed with the heat setting (L)
in the top left region of the screen.
d) When the heater temperature (L) is above
40°C, the hot top caution indicator (Q) will be
illuminated.
3. To change the heat setting (L) while the heater is on:
a) Rotate the left knob (C) to the new heat
setting.
The heat setting (L) will blink to indicate that
the heat setting is not confirmed.
The heat setting indicator (N) will illuminate.
b) Briefly press the left knob (C) to confirm the
new heat setting.
The heat setting (L) will stop blinking once the
new setting is confirmed.
If the heat setting (L) remains idle without
confirmation for 4 seconds, it will reset to the
current setting.
4. To turn off the heater, press and hold the left knob
(C) until the unit beeps and the heater indicator (M)
disappears.
a) The unit will beep once to confirm the heater
has been turned off.
b) The heater indicator (M) next to the “°C”
symbol will disappear to indicate that the
heater is off.
CAUTION: This does not mean that the top
plate is safe to touch.
c) Once the heater temperature (L) cools below
40°C, the hot top caution indicator (Q) will
disappear.
