Cole-Parmer SHM-200-50 Stirring/Heating Mantle, 50 mL Capacity; 230 VAC

Description

Operating on 230-volt AC power, this stirring and heating mantle is designed for use with 50 mL round-bottom flasks. The Cole-Parmer device merges a heating mantle and a magnetic stirrer into a single platform. The mantle component delivers heat directly to the flask walls, and the stirrer mechanism rotates a magnetic stir bar inside the vessel to homogenize the contents. Performing both actions simultaneously is advantageous for many chemical procedures, ensuring reaction mixtures maintain consistent temperature and composition. The unit's capacity suits applications involving minimal sample volumes, such as in pilot studies, analytical preparations, or educational demonstrations. Laboratories with 230 VAC infrastructure will find this model compatible. For optimal performance and safety, it is important to use glassware that fits the mantle dimensions correctly and to follow standard operating procedures for heated stirring equipment.
