Superior safety features: maximum protection for the operator and the samples
The AREX-6 Digital PRO is provided of 2 independent safety circuits that switch-off the heat preventing possible hazard in all cases of overtemperature (higher than the set point).
When the plate temperature is 50°C the display will show a residual hot plate message preventing potential burning.
The probe detection alarm of the AREX-6 Digital PRO detects that the external probe is not immersed in the medium and stops the heat preserving the sample from burning.
With the AREX-6 Digital PRO is now possible to adjust the maximum operating temperature in order to meet all the Labs safety standards.
The AREX-6 Digital PRO is IP42 certified and thanks to the resistant die-cast housing and the run-off grove all the internal parts of the instrument is protected from potential damages.
The AREX-6 Digital PRO is designed for the longest lifespan and guaranteed by 3 years warranty (register online your AREX-6 Digital PRO to get the warranty extension).
Consider purchasing the optional tailor-made silicon cover that keeps the instrument safer!
State-of-the-art thermoregulation
Best in class thermoregulation extremely stable, fast and with minimal overshoot thanks to the powerful PID thermoregulation software.
The AREX-6 Digital PRO includes Pt100 Probe and can be connected to VTF for precise and accurate control of the temperature of the medium.
Working with the Pt100 probe it is possible to choose 2 different thermoregulation modes to match all requirements:
- FAST: the Hot Plate Stirrer quickly reaches to the set point temperature with a little overshoot
- FINE: slower temperature set point reaching with an optimized overshoot
Easy to use and smart user interface
The brand new white LED display with black background is easy to read and thanks to the new set of icons, the operator has always the clear readout of the working conditions.
The new icons inform about: probe connection, heat activation, set point temperature, timer activation and auto-reverse option.
Lock your instrument by pressing the central button for 3 seconds, a white LED will blink if an interaction is detected.
Two extremely precise turning knobs control the temperature and speed setting and for starting the heating is now necessary to tap the knob for complete safety.
By tapping at the same time both knobs is possible to access to the advanced menu for the most suitable configuration of all operating modes.
Superior performances
The extremely powerful brushless motor is able to stir from 30 up to 1700 rpm. Speed is always constant as viscosity changes with the torque compensation SpeedServo™.
The strong Alnico Magnet provides state-of-the-art magnetic coupling and guarantees superior peripheral stirring very important when combining the AREX-6 Digital PRO with the accessories.
The 135 mm diameter top is protected from chemicals and scratches by the superior resistant CeAlTop™ ceramic coating.
It is made of aluminum alloy that guarantees temperature homogeneity and the fastest heat transfer and of a thin layer of ceramic protecting the plate .
Unique features: timer and Auto-reverse option
The central button permits to set the timer in order to save time to operator and enabling unsupervised work.
The timer is settable from 1 min up to 99 hours and in the advanced menu is possible to configure it as follow:
- Snap: timer countdown starts as soon as one main function (Temperature/Speed) is on
- SetP: timer countdown starts when temperature set point is reached
The Auto-reverse option enhances the kinetics by changing the direction of the stirring direction. Is also possible to set the change in direction at the preferred interval of time.
Included Accessories
- Temperature Probe AISI 316 Ti Ø3 mm
ACCESSORIES
Clean and safe round bottom flasks to replace oil baths and mantles
The Hemispheric Bowl are the most suitable solution to replace oil baths and mantles in order to perform clean and safe analysis with round bottom flasks.
VELP Hemispheric Bowl precisely fit the 135 mm diameter plate and the flask surface, ensuring the fastest heat transfer.
Increase the productivity with MonoAluBlock™ and MultiAluBlock™
The new MonoAluBlock™and MultiAluBlock™ permits to perform numerous reactions, reducing time and bench space also achieving the highest stirring and heating performances.
- MonoAluBlock™ are the ideal solution for all the application that require to stir multiple vials of the same dimensions
- MultiAluBlock™ consist of small combinable segments in order to accommodate different sizes of vials at the same time. The user can select the most suitable mix for his application
