Description

The Hotplate Magnetic Stirrer YG1033 / YG1034 is a high-capacity, 4-position laboratory stirrer designed for efficient mixing and heating of multiple samples simultaneously. With a digital display for precise temperature control (RT-380°C) and adjustable speed (100-1800 RPM), this unit ensures uniform heat distribution thanks to its ceramic-coated aluminum plate, which resists corrosion and enhances durability. The spill-proof housing protects internal electronics, while PID temperature control guarantees accuracy (±1°C). Available in two models—YG1033 (140×140mm plates, 1000mL max per position) and YG1034 (180×180mm plates, 5000mL max per position)—this stirrer is ideal for pharmaceutical, chemical, and industrial labs. Priced competitively for its advanced features, it offers unmatched efficiency for high-throughput applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• What’s the main difference between YG1033 and YG1034? The YG1033 has smaller plates (140×140mm) and a 1000mL max capacity per position, while the YG1034 has larger plates (180×180mm) and supports up to 5000mL per position, making it ideal for bulk processing.
• Can this stirrer handle high-viscosity liquids? While it performs well with most liquids, extremely viscous samples may require a more powerful motor or specialized stir bars for optimal mixing.
• Is it suitable for 24/7 operation? Yes! Both models are designed for continuous operation, making them perfect for long-duration experiments and industrial processes.

Advantages & Disadvantages

Pros:

• 4-Position Efficiency – Simultaneously heat and stir multiple samples, boosting lab productivity.
• Precision Control – Digital PID temperature (±1°C) and speed (±1 RPM) adjustments for repeatable results.
• Durable & Safe – Corrosion-resistant ceramic plate and spill-proof housing for long-term reliability.

Cons:

• Heavyweight (14-20kg) – Less portable compared to single-position stirrers.
• Higher Power Consumption – Requires 350W–550W per position, increasing energy costs.
• Limited High-Temp Speed – Takes time to reach max temperature (380°C).

Product Use in the Field

This 4-position magnetic stirrer is widely used in:

• Pharmaceutical Labs – For drug formulation, dissolution testing, and parallel synthesis.

• Chemical Research – Enables simultaneous reactions, reducing experiment time.

• Industrial QC – Ideal for batch testing of liquids in manufacturing environments.

• Biotech & Academia – Perfect for teaching labs requiring multiple sample processing.

Its hermetically safe operation allows stirring in closed systems, while the high-capacity heating accelerates processes like crystallization, solvent evaporation, and cell culture media preparation.

Recommendations

• For viscous liquids: Use larger stir bars or PTFE-coated magnets for better mixing.

• Maintenance: Wipe the ceramic plate after each use to prevent residue buildup.

• Safety: Avoid overheating beyond 400°C to prolong the heating element’s lifespan.
