GIVE YOUR CHEMICAL SYNTHESIS A BOOST WITH THE VELP HEATING MAGNETIC STIRRERS AND ACCESSORIES

The chemical synthesis and the construction of new, complex,  and defined molecules is a complicated challenge that supports developments in a wide range of fields. Chemical synthesis enables a better understanding of compound structures and the production of new ones for research purposes. It is used to obtain many substances important for everyday life. This makes it a unique and enabling science, where some requirements are crucial: the precise temperature control and the protection of the sample, the instrument, and the operator.

Typically, chemical synthesis, whether organic or inorganic, is performed in round bottom flasks. There are several options for laboratories in order to work with such flasks: hot plates, oil baths, and heating mantles.
However oil baths and heating mantles have some disadvantages such as:

• extensive cleaning after use
• the need for a temperature control system to keep it constant
• the risk of spills and fires, which does not guarantee the safety of the operator 
• the disposal of used oils 
• some limits in the type of glassware that can be used

VELP engineered extremely robust and highly versatile Heating Magnetic Stirrers, along with a complete offer of additional accessories, that enable you to perform clean, precise, and safe reactions.

ACCESSORIES FOR STATE-OF-THE-ART TEMPERATURE CONTROL

With Heating Magnetic Stirrers, high temperatures are often experienced during laboratory work. Therefore, it is crucial to control temperature, as well as, sensitivity to temperature changes for both endothermic and exothermic reactions according to the reaction requirements.

VELP engineered two thermometers, the external Pt100 probe and the VTF Thermoregulator, that enable extremely stable and fast thermoregulation and temperature control, with minimal overshoot, thanks to the PID thermoregulation software.

ACCESSORIES  FOR CLEAN AND SAFE REACTIONS

VELP offers you a range of Hemispheric Bowls^TM, made of aluminum, an excellent heat conductor, which precisely fits with the 135 mm plate diameter of the Heating Magnetic Stirrers.

The Hemispheric Bowls^TM accommodate different types of glassware and different sizes of round bottom flasks, from 25 ml to 5000 ml, minimizing the risk of movement and ensuring the fastest heat transfer.

For complete operator protection and minimized heat loss when working with round bottom flasks, you can also choose from a wide range of PTFE cover, compatible with all VELP Hemispheric Bowls.

ACCESSORIES FOR A COMPLETE PROTECTION OF LABORATORY EQUIPMENT

While performing chemical synthesis, spills of organic solvents often occur and these can damage instruments. It is therefore essential to protect laboratory equipment in order to optimize its durability and always achieve excellent performance. VELP designed a series of additional silicon covers, which offer total protection against accidental spills.
