The EUROSTAR 100 Control by IKA features a unique reversible – clockwise and counter clockwise stirring action. It’s a laboratory overhead stirrer packed with many advanced features including a removable wireless controller, digital TFT display for easy navigation and RS232/USB interface to control and document all parameters, including temperature with a pt1000 sensor (included with the unit)! However it is not just bells and whistles, this is a powerful and fast unit. It has a speed range of 0/30 – 1300 RPM with stepless speed control and is capable of stirring up to 100 litres of water and liquids with a maximum viscosity 70,000mPas.
