Durable magnetic stirrer with heating for efficient lab mixing
Since 1983, the ARE 5 Velp Magnetic Stirrer has been a staple in laboratories worldwide, from academic institutions to industrial research facilities. The latest iteration, the ARE 5 series, continues Velp's legacy of excellence.
Renowned for its durability, safety, and exceptional performance, the ARE 5's heating plate is made from IP42-certified aluminum alloy, ensuring uniform heat distribution over its 135 mm diameter. This guarantees optimal heat transfer across the surface.
Enhanced safety features, including overtemperature protection and visual indicators, ensure operator safety and inform users of active heating. An indicator remains lit until the plate cools to below 50°C, even when switched off, for added safety.
The robust construction includes an insulating disc that shields internal components, excelling in challenging laboratory environments, notably with cold solutions below 0°C. The ARE 5 is crafted to endure, backed by a three-year warranty.
For precision mixing, the ARE 5 features a potent brushless motor capable of handling up to 15 liters (H2O), equipped with SpeedServo™ technology to maintain constant speeds despite sample viscosity changes. This makes it ideal for temperature-sensitive tasks in various industrial and academic settings.
User-friendly, the ARE 5 Control Panel allows easy adjustment of the temperature up to 310°C and stirring speeds ranging from 100 to 1500 rpm using two accessible knobs.
Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.
We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.
We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.
With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.
Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.
Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.
Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.
We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
Tell us what you need and a scientist finds it for you, usually within the hour.
