Guardian 7000 Hotplates & Stirrers

Description

The Guardian 7000 series from OHAUS Corporation comprises hotplate stirrers engineered for laboratory use, featuring a chemical-resistant housing designed to direct spills away from sensitive internal electronics. These units provide a temperature operating range from 5°C above ambient up to 500°C and offer stirring speeds adjustable between 60 and 1600 rpm. A powerful motor and magnet system ensures stable magnetic coupling, even for more viscous liquids. The angled control panel incorporates a clear LCD that shows setpoints and operational parameters like temperature, speed, and timer functions. Integrated safety technologies include an automatic heater shut-off triggered after a user-defined period of inactivity and a dual-control system designed to prevent overtemperature conditions by monitoring internal electronics. Available in two size variants, the models have approximate dimensions of either 8.8 x 12.2 x 4.8 inches or 11.25 x 16.3 x 4.8 inches, with corresponding weights of 5.7 and 11.5 pounds.
