5.0 Stirring Instructions

For Models: PC-410D, PC-420D, PC-610D, PC-620D

1. Fill the vessel with solution to be stirred.

2. Place the stir bar into the vessel.

3. Place the vessel in the center of the top surface.

4. Turn Stir Control Knob until the Stirring Speed Display shows the desired speed. The speed

setting can be adjusted according to the table below.

Operating Range (rpm)

60 - 100

100 - 200

200 - 400

400 - 1,150

Flashing Display: The number will FLASH when the actual stirring speed is not at set speed.

Constant Display: The number will not flash when the actual stirring speed is at the set

speed. The number will remain constantly ON when the actual stirring speed is at the

set speed.

5. When desired stirring is complete, turn the Stir Control Knob to the OFF position. Allow stir

bar to cease rotation before removing the vessel from the unit.

6. Heating and stirring can be performed simultaneously with the PC-420D and PC-620D

models, which offer both heating and stirring functions.

NOTE: The viscosity of the stirred material will affect the ability of the stir bar to remain

coupled to the rotating ring magnet. Materials of high viscosity must be stirred at slower

speed settings.

6.0 Heating Instructions

Without the External Temperature Controller for Models: PC-400D, PC-420D, PC-600D,

and PC-620D

1. Fill the vessel with solution to be heated.

2. If using a PC-420D or PC-620D model and the stirring function, place the stir bar into

the vessel.

3. Place vessel in the center of the top surface.

4. Turn Heat Control Knob until the Heating Temperature Display shows the desired

temperature. The temperature setting can be adjusted in 5°C increments.

Flashing Display: The number shown on the Heating Temperature Display will FLASH

when the actual heating temperature is not at the set temperature.

Constant Display: The number shown on the Heating Temperature Display will remain

constantly ON when the actual heating temperature is at the set temperature.
