Digital 2000ML Heating Mantle 110V with Magnetic Stirring – PreAsion

Description

Product Overview

The PreAsion Digital 2000ML Heating Mantle is engineered for laboratory environments that demand precise temperature control and reliable heat distribution. Constructed from high‑quality aluminum silicate cotton, the mantle wraps a round‑bottom flask to ensure even heat transfer across the entire surface, minimizing hot spots and reducing the risk of sample degradation. The unit operates on a standard 110 V power supply and delivers up to 500 W of power, allowing rapid temperature ramp‑up while maintaining stability throughout the heating cycle.

Integrated into the mantle is a magnetic stirring system capable of speeds ranging from 0 to 2000 rpm. This dual‑function design eliminates the need for separate stirring equipment, saving bench space and simplifying experimental setups. The stirring mechanism is driven by a robust motor that maintains consistent torque even at high speeds, ensuring homogeneous mixing of solutions, suspensions, or emulsions.

Temperature regulation is managed by a PID single‑screen controller with an LCD display. The controller provides a temperature range from ambient plus 20 °C up to 250 °C, with a maximum surface temperature of 450 °C. Accurate temperature monitoring requires connection of the external temperature probe, which then enables real‑time readouts and fine‑tuned adjustments. This level of control is essential for sensitive reactions, distillations, and other processes where temperature drift can compromise results.

Safety features include an over‑temperature protection circuit that automatically shuts down the heating element if the temperature exceeds safe limits. The mantle also incorporates a built‑in thermal fuse that provides an additional layer of protection against electrical faults. These safeguards comply with international laboratory safety standards, giving users confidence in long‑term operation.

Dimensions of the product are compact enough to fit standard laboratory benches: the package measures 13.3 × 12.8 × 11.38 inches and weighs 11.13 lb, making it easy to transport between workstations. The unit is compatible with a variety of rotary evaporators, vacuum pumps, and other lab equipment, offering versatile applicability across chemistry, biochemistry, petrochemical, and food‑processing research.

Usage

Designed for a broad spectrum of laboratory applications, the heating mantle excels in processes that require both heating and stirring. In organic synthesis, it provides the controlled heat necessary for reflux reactions while the magnetic stirrer ensures uniform mixing of reagents, catalysts, and solvents. This combination improves reaction efficiency and yields, especially in scale‑up experiments where temperature gradients can become problematic.

In the field of biochemistry, the mantle is frequently used to maintain enzyme solutions at optimal temperatures during incubation or kinetic assays. The gentle stirring action prevents enzyme denaturation caused by localized overheating, while the precise temperature control supports reproducible experimental conditions. Researchers working with temperature‑sensitive biomolecules appreciate the mantle’s ability to sustain stable environments over extended periods.

Industrial laboratories that handle petrochemical samples benefit from the mantle’s high‑temperature capability. The device can safely heat viscous oils and heavy hydrocarbons up to 250 °C, facilitating viscosity measurements, distillation, and sample preparation for analytical testing. The magnetic stirring function helps to break down emulsions and maintain homogeneity, reducing the need for manual agitation.

Food‑processing research labs often require controlled heating for pasteurization studies, flavor extraction, and texture analysis. The mantle’s rapid heating and consistent temperature profile enable accurate simulation of industrial processes on a bench‑scale, while the stirring action mimics the mixing conditions found in large‑scale reactors. This makes it a valuable tool for product development and quality control.
