Cole-Parmer SHP-200-C Undergrad Analog Stirring Hot Plate and TC-200D Temperature Controller Kit, 230 VAC

Description

Designed for 230 VAC power supplies, this kit pairs a Cole-Parmer SHP-200-C analog stirring hot plate with a TC-200D digital temperature controller. The hot plate offers a ceramic top and separate analog dials for managing magnetic stir speed and heating power. The integrated TC-200D controller significantly enhances temperature management by employing feedback control. A sensor from the controller monitors the actual temperature of the sample, and the unit automatically adjusts the hot plate's heat output to maintain a stable, pre-selected temperature. This configuration is particularly useful for applications demanding accurate and sustained thermal conditions over time, such as lengthy chemical syntheses or temperature-sensitive biological assays. The kit thus merges the operational simplicity of an analog stirrer with the improved thermal accuracy of a dedicated control unit.
