MAGNETIC - STIRRER HEATER

SECOND YEAR
What is the purpose of a magnetic stirrer ?
A magnetic stirrer is a device widely used in laboratories and
consists of a rotating magnet or a stationary electromagnet
that creates a rotating magnetic field. This device is used to
make a stir bar, immerse in a liquid, quickly spin, or stirring or
mixing a solution, for example .
Stirring is performed to obtain homogeneous mixtures and
intensifies heat and mass exchange in the mixers

The magnetic stirrer consists of two main parts: motor with stirring mechanism
and control electronics. Motor movement with a magnet on top causes rotation
of stir bars which mix liquids. Control electronics supervises motor RPM,
keyboard functions. Magnetic stirrers are designed for mixing fluids of different
viscosity with the help of a stir that spins very quickly. They are commonly used
for sample preparation and analysis, in chemistry Lab, biology lab, Pharmacy Lab
and in such laboratory works as organic synthesis, extraction, oil analysis, pH
measurement, dialysis, soil suspending, preparing buffer solutions where it is
often needed to mix several types of liquids to get homogeneous mixtures.
Magnetic stirrers have different service performance and technical parameters.
Magnetic Stir Bars
A magnetic stirrer consists of a magnetic bar placed within the liquid
which provides the stirring action. The stir bar's motion is driven by
another rotating magnet or assembly of electromagnets in the stirrer
device, beneath the vessel containing the liquid.[1] Stir bars are
typically coated in PTFE, or, less often, in glass; the coatings are
intended to be chemically inert, not contaminating or reacting with
the reaction mixture they are in
Laboratory hot plates often serve a dual purpose by incorporating both the
stirring assembly and a heating element. Such heating elements may range in
power from a few hundred to a few thousand watts, and allow the reaction flask
to be heated and stirred at the same time. The maximum reachable fluid
temperature depends on the size of the flask, the quantity of solution to be
heated, the power of the heating element, and amount of insulation provided to
the system
