MINISTAR 40 control: compact and powerful suspended shaker
The MINISTAR 40 control from IKA represents a new generation of suspended stirrers that combine compact dimensions with impressive capabilities. Designed to meet the demands of modern laboratories, it is perfectly suited to environments requiring high performance in a limited space. Its compact design and high-quality brushless motor ensure quiet and durable operation, ideal for long applications requiring high stability.
This stirrer can handle volumes of up to 25 litres of water and maximum viscosities of 30,000 mPas, making it suitable for a wide variety of mixtures, even the most viscous. Its electronic control system guarantees constant speed, even with variations in viscosity, which is crucial for sensitive processes. The MINISTAR 40 control also features an external temperature sensor and a digital display for precise control of parameters.
Thanks to its tempered glass touchscreen , it offers excellent readability and chemical resistance, extending its service life in demanding laboratory conditions. The user benefits from an intuitive interface and simple controls, which reduce operating errors and make it easy to use. The key lock function and integrated vibration sensor provide additional safety by automatically interrupting the process if the permitted thresholds are exceeded.
The device is also equipped with a USB port for documenting parameters via the labworldsoft® software and updating the firmware. Its versatility is complemented by an integrated timer of up to 6000 minutes, ideal for kinetically sensitive reactions and scheduled reminders. Compact and lightweight, weighing only 1.72 kg, it can be easily installed on stands thanks to its included extension arm.
The MINISTAR 40 control is a reliable and high-performance solution for laboratories looking to optimise their mixing processes while benefiting from a robust tool.
