How it is used
A round hot plate is the basic flameless heat source of a teaching laboratory. The cast iron plate warms evenly and holds its heat, so a beaker of water, a water bath or a dish of solution heats steadily without the open flame of a spirit lamp or gas burner.
The three-position rotary switch gives three fixed heat levels. Students select a low setting to warm or dissolve, a middle setting for steady heating and the top setting to bring water to the boil, which keeps operation simple for classes.
- Stand the hot plate on a heat-resistant bench away from paper and solvents.
- Place a flat-bottomed beaker or dish in the centre of the 20 cm plate.
- Turn the rotary switch to the heat level needed.
- Switch off after use and leave the plate to cool, as cast iron stays hot for some time.
