Magnetic Stirrer

A Magnetic Stirrer is a device meant to be used in laboratories. It consists of a rotating magnet that creates a rotating magnetic field and is used to make a stir bar, immerse in a liquid, quickly spin, or stirring or mixing a solution. Magnetic stirrers use a rotating magnetic field to move a stir bar around in liquid samples and they coupled with stirring hot plate. The movement of this stir bar mixes the samples thoroughly with rapid movement and agitation. The user controls the magnetic field speed and hence it can be customized to the specific sample that is being stirred. These magnetic stirrers are commonly used with glass or other non-metal beakers to prevent interference with the magnetic field.

A Magnetic Stirrer consists of a stir bar magnet, which is fitted inside a container and immersed in the fluid. There is another magnet that is placed underneath the container for the purpose of attracting the stir bar magnet, while the lower magnet is commonly attached to a motor that spins it. As per the required application, a magnetic stirrer is configured with hot plates to heat the samples as they are stirred. With the use of a hot plate stirrer, a wide variety of samples are mixed for different applications. In place of a magnetic stirrer, the samples can be mixed with the use of motor power overhead stirrers. The distinctive feature of a magnetic stirrer, unlike an overhead stirrer, is that it can mix samples in a sealed container and samples can be heated more evenly by magnetic stirrer hot plates.

Types of Magnetic Stirrers:

The magnetic stirrers are classified according to the size, configuration and applications. The best magnetic stirrer hot plate should be able to mix the viscous solutions efficiently. Some of the types are as follow:

Magnetic Mini Stirrer: This stirrer is compact that occupies less space in the laboratory. It contains electronic controls that allow the user to regulate the speed with greater precision.

Magnetic Stirrer with Timer: This stirrer helps to automatically shut off the motor after the specific period since it has an in-built timer that sets off the stirrer once the pre-selected period has completed.

Heavy-Duty Magnetic Stirrers: This stirrer carries high mixing capacity and highly durable since it contains good chemical resistance. It can be the best stirrer for the laboratory to achieve accurate results.

Battery Powered Magnetic Stirrer: This stirrer is used where there is no electric supply or other sensitive areas. It works with batteries and is mostly used in incubators.
