Cole-Parmer SHP-200-MP Multi-position Hotplate Stirrer with Magnetic Stirring and 325°C Max Temperature

The Cole-Parmer SHP-200-MP Hotplate Stirrer is a bench-top laboratory device designed for precise heating and magnetic stirring of multiple liquid samples simultaneously. Engineered with three independent hotplate positions, it enables concurrent processing of samples, critical for bioprocessing and synthetic biology workflows.

Key technical features include:

• Maximum temperature of 325°C on each aluminium/silicon alloy plate (16 x 16 cm), ensuring uniform heat distribution essential for molecular diagnostics and biopharmaceutical production pipelines.
• Speed range of 100 to 1500 rpm, driven by powerful magnets providing robust magnetic coupling for consistent stirring of viscous liquids or gels, widely adopted in biotechnology and biochemical research applications.
• Stir volume capacity up to 15 liters per plate, accommodating larger reaction volumes common in gene editing and molecular cloning workflows.
• Each plate features a heated warning light that activates at temperatures above 50°C and remains lit after power-off for operator safety during multi-sample processing.
• Heating power rated at 3 x 700W, enabling rapid temperature ramp-up for temperature-sensitive cell imaging and live-cell culture preparation.

This hotplate stirrer is essential for laboratories focusing on biochemical reaction control, microbial cultivation, and synthetic biology, providing reliable temperature control and stirring consistency for complex biomanufacturing and clinical diagnostics research.
