State-of-the-art heating magnetic stirrer combining powerful performance, advanced safety features, several connectivity options, and enhanced user experience. Designed to meet the highest demands, it ensures precision, efficiency, and uncompromising safety in every experiment.
Elevating Laboratory Standards with an Advanced Hotplate Stirrer
Designed for a modern lab experience, its state-of-the-art user interface features capacitive buttons and a tempered glass control panel, ensuring seamless navigation and immediate readability from any angle.
Beyond its sleek design, the AREX 5 Advance expands your control over every aspect of your reactions. You can:
- Set temperature and stirring speed ramps;
- Optimize workflows with programmable timer functions;
- Monitor viscosity variations;
- Switch between multiple stirring modes;
- Take full advantage of versatile connectivity options.
Unparalleled Temperature Control for Precise Thermoregulation
The AREX 5 Advance ensures exceptional thermoregulation up to 310°C, offering the highest level of control for temperature-sensitive laboratory applications.
When connected to Pt100 and Pt1000 probes, two thermoregulation modes are available:
- FAST – Fast temperature rise.
- FINE – Optimized temperature control for minimized overshoot.
The AREX 5 Advance supports ramp programming with up to 9 temperature and 9 speed steps, speeding up your process.
Additionally, the CerAlTop™ plate combines the strength and chemical resistance of ceramic with the excellent thermal conductivity of aluminum, enabling rapid and uniform heating across the entire surface.
Powerful Stirring for Enhanced Laboratory Performance
With a 30–1700 rpm speed range, it offers precise control for gentle or vigorous stirring. SpeedServo™ maintains constant speed despite viscosity changes, while the viscosity variation indicator provides real-time feedback for accurate reaction monitoring.
Advanced stirring modes, including auto-reverse functionality, intermittent mode, and settable speed limits, make the AREX 5 Advance indispensable for demanding laboratory workflows.
Improving Efficiency with Smart Connectivity
- With the Velp Ermes cloud platform, you can manage your hotplate stirrer remotely from any mobile device, at any time. Just log in to configure all parameters and monitor activity in real time.
- For laboratories preferring local data management, the CotrollerSoftTM software is a reliable solution, enabling easy visualization of stirring and heating curves via USB connectivity to a PC.
- Experimental data can also be saved and transferred to a PC or a USB flash drive for further analysis.
Uncompromising Safety for Laboratory Operators
- Safety lock button prevents accidental parameter changes;
- Safety checks automatically stop heating in case the external probe is not immersed or is removed from the sample;
- Over-temperature protection and safety circuits prevent overheating of the sample;
- Adjustable maximum temperature limit ensures added control;
- Countdown and count-up timer to fine-tune your workflow;
- “Hot” message is displayed when the plate exceeds 50°C, even if heating is turned off.
