PHOENIX Instrument Heated 6-position magnetic stirrer RSM-03-6KH

PHOENIX Instrument Heated 6-position magnetic stirrer RSM-03-6KH

This multifunctional 6-position magnetic stirrer with heating function enables several parallel experiments to be carried out efficiently and a wide range of parameters to be set precisely. Thanks to its robust design and reliable digital control, the device is particularly suitable for laboratory environments in pharmaceuticals, food technology, environmental analysis and waste water analyses. It impresses with a combination of high heating capacity, easy handling and separate control for each stirring point, offering a time-saving and safe solution for professional laboratory operations.

High flexibility and precise control

The equipment comprises six independently controllable stirring and heating units that are operated in a frequency range of 50/60 Hz. Each stirring unit can be separately programme-controlled via its own LCD display, allowing synchronous or individually coordinated control of multiple processes. The integrated control system ensures temperature accuracy down to 1 °C. Safe operation is guaranteed by the DC motor with brushless technology, which requires little maintenance and has a long service life.

For applications in which precise temperature control is crucial, the existing temperature sensor connection (PT-1000) offers additional safety. An integrated indicator, which displays a warning when the surface is hot, and a safety temperature of 420 °C serve to protect the operator. This ensures a high level of safety in daily lab operation while maintaining experimental flexibility.

Central performance features

- Number of stirring positions: 6
- Maximum stirring volume (H2O): 6 × 3 litres
- Speed range: 200-1500 rpm (accuracy ±20 rpm)

- Temperature range: room temperature +5 to 280 °C
- Heating power per point: 600 W
- Stirring plate material: aluminium with porcelain coating
- Protection class: IP 21

The plate dimensions of 6 × 134 mm mean that larger or unwieldy vessels can also be placed, allowing different experimental set-ups to be realised. As no separate contact thermometer is required, there is no need for additional measuring devices and potential sources of error. The stands and temperature sensors are also already included in the scope of delivery.

The housing has a robust design, which supports durability and favours even heat transfer. The brushless motor technology works quietly and delivers consistent torque to handle a wide range of mixing tasks - from slow sediment processing to fast, intensive mixing.

Certifications and standards

The device complies with EN 60529 and has protection class IP 21, which provides solid protection against accidental ingress of solids and dripping water. Thanks to its robust electronics and high-quality workmanship, the magnetic stirrer fulfils common safety and quality standards that are required in professional laboratories.

Concrete application examples

1. Pharmaceutical development: Ideal for mixing and heating test formulations or active ingredients in drug discovery and for fine-tuning suspensions.
2. Food analyses: Perfect for the simultaneous analysis of emulsions, pastes or extracts, as six samples can be processed at the same time.
3. Environmental and wastewater technology: Suitable for the parallel stirring of different water samples, for example when determining COD, BOD or sedimentation behaviour.
4. Research facilities: Used for heating and homogenising solutions in biology, chemistry and materials science, especially for optimising reaction approaches with multiple samples.

Frequently asked questions

What is the maximum temperature that can be set?

The heating plate reaches up to 280 °C with a safety temperature of 420 °C. This ensures safe operation, even if higher set values are required.

Can each stirring point be regulated individually?

Yes, all six positions can be controlled individually using their own LCD displays. This makes it possible to run different temperature and stirring programmes in parallel.

What is the advantage of the brushless DC motor?

Brushless motors are virtually maintenance-free and are characterised by a long service life. In addition, precise speeds are achieved, which is important for many laboratory methods.

Do I need a separate thermometer?

The integrated control function means that no additional contact thermometer is required. However, for accurate measurements, a PT-1000 sensor can be connected to carry out external control measurements.

Conclusion

This model allows efficient parallel analysis of up to six samples simultaneously. Thanks to the integrated heating function, precise temperature control and robust build quality, the device is a high-quality, reliable solution for laboratories in the pharmaceutical, food, environmental technology and research sectors. The separate controllability enables the precise setting of different parameters, especially for extensive serial analyses, which saves time and always delivers reproducible results.
