1. Introduction
The AREX-6 Digital/Digital PRO heating magnetic stirrer is used in the laboratory for general use and for all those applications that require
a precise regulation for stirring speed and heating liquids.

The Aluminum alloy heating plate with ceramic coating (1) ensures:
• Optimum heat distribution and a high specific power thanks to the circular configuration
• Temperature homogeneity
• High resistance to thermal stress and thermal shock
• High resistance to chemical agents and surface abrasion
Magnetic stirring is generated by an AlNiCo magnet, driven by brushless motor which offers a virtually unlimited duration.
Size and shape of the magnetic stir bar determines the stirring efficiency at any given speed.
The stirring bar code which satisfies most applications is
NOTE: The vessel must be made of a suitable material to withstand the foreseen temperature.
NOTE: Using the heating plate at high temperatures may cause discoloring. This does not alter the thermal, mechanical and chemical
resistance of the plate in any way.
2. Assembly and installation
•
Unpacking
-
Check the integrity of the unit after unpacking.
•
The box includes
-
AREX-6 Digital/Digital PRO heating magnetic stirrer
-
Power supply cord
-
Instruction manual
•
First installation
-
Place the unit on non-flammable surface
-
Make sure that the values on the rating plate, correspond to those of the power supply
-
Move the main switch (2) to the OFF position
-
Ensure that the socket provided with grounding is accordant to current safety norms and easy to reach. Use only the cable
provided with the instrument.
-
Insert the mains power cable into the socket
NOTE: the main cable must remain far away from the hot plate. It can be substituted only by main cables with same features (T=90°C,
connector C15).
