1. Safety Instructions
Warning!
•Read the operating instructions carefully
before use.
•Ensure that only trained staff works with the
instrument.
Risk of burn!
•Caution when touch the housing parts and the hotplate
which can reach temperature of
550°C.
•Pay attention to the residual heat
after 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.
• 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)
Figure 1
This device is not suitable for using in residential areas or other constraints mentioned in Chapter 1.

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 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 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
10
- 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.
• 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.
