IKA RW 28 D Overhead Mechanical Laboratory Stirrer with Digital Speed Control

The IKA RW 28 D Overhead Stirrer is engineered for efficient mixing of viscous materials in laboratory and pilot plant environments, supporting volumes up to 80 liters. Its infinitely adjustable speed range (60–1400 rpm) allows precise control for diverse bioprocessing and synthetic biology applications requiring consistent agitation.

Key technical specifications and features include:

• Maximum stirring capacity of 80 L suitable for bench-scale to pilot-scale biotechnology workflows
• Handles maximum viscosity up to 50,000 mPas, making it ideal for complex media and high-viscosity biochemical solutions
• Integrated digital speed display with real-time speed readout and error code alerts enhances operational accuracy and troubleshooting
• Innovative push-through agitator shaft enables swift height adjustments of the impeller while maintaining mechanical stability under load
• Overload protection function automatically halts motor operation upon detecting excessive torque, high viscosity, or mechanical jams, ensuring device longevity and user safety
• Quiet operation at only 62.5 dB promotes a low-noise laboratory environment conducive to sensitive research, including molecular diagnostics and cell imaging workflows
• Robust construction designed for intensive mixing tasks in research domains such as biomanufacturing, molecular cloning, and pharmaceutical pilot production

This overhead stirrer is essential for laboratories seeking reliable, variable-speed agitation solutions for biotechnology processes, molecular biology research, and bioprocess engineering. Note that the device is supplied without attachments, allowing customization with various impellers to suit specific live-cell culture or synthetic biology stirring requirements.
