How it is used
This hot plate covers the day-to-day heating jobs of a laboratory: warming reagents, dissolving solids, heating a water bath or bringing a beaker of water to the boil. The element is enclosed within the top surface, so the vessel sits on a flat, closed plate rather than over exposed coils.
The energy regulator gives a continuous range of settings instead of fixed steps. It cycles the 800 W element on and off, spending more of each cycle on as the knob is turned up, so the heat input can be set finely for gentle warming or brisk boiling up to a surface temperature of 350 °C.
- Place the hot plate on a level, heat-resistant bench surface.
- Stand a flat-bottomed vessel centrally on the 20 cm top.
- Turn the energy regulator up gradually to the heat required.
- Turn the regulator to off after use and let the plate cool before storing.

Frequently asked questions
What is the power and maximum temperature of the general purpose hot plate?
It has an 800 W heating element and reaches surface temperatures up to 350 °C.
What does the energy regulator do?
It sets the heat input by switching the element on and off in a cycle; turning the knob up lengthens the on-time. It gives stepless adjustment but does not read the liquid temperature, so a thermometer is used when an exact temperature matters.
