Glass-Ceramic Hotplates

The extraordinary glass-ceramic material made by Schott withstands even the most extreme conditions. It is highly break-proof, resistant to temperature changes, free of distortion and pores, easy to clean, absolutely flat and highly acid-resistant. Even extreme applications, such as the evaporation of acids, are possible with this.

Construction (exception: express hotplate)

The whole surface of the low-mass glass-ceramic plate is electrically heated. It is embedded in a stainless steel frame and mounted on an internally insulated stainless steel housing. The temperature is controlled by an electronic NiCr-Ni temperature controller (control range 50...500°C), which is built into a pressure-cast alumium housing (IP65). The temperature pre-selection 50...500°C is made directly via a °C temperature scale. The heating time to maximum temperature is approx. 8 minutes. The special heating system is designed to achieve an even temperature distribution over the entire heating surface. The hotplates are manufactured in different sizes and types: As a benchtop unit with attached control (type A), a benchtop unit with seperate control (type SR), and as a built-in hotplate with separate panel-mounted controller (type EB-C).

Type A - Benchtop Devices with Attached Controller

Type A benchtop units are manufactured as compact units with attached control housing. The entire surface of the glass ceamic top plate is heated by a special radiant heating element. The temperature range is adjustable from 50...500°C. Four feet, adjustable in height by approx. 8 mm, allow a wobble-free and horizontal set-up. The type 4A has 4 support rod sockets at a distance of 100 mm.

Type SR - Benchtop Devices with Separate Controller

Hotplates of type SR are manufactured with a separate temperature controller. The electrical connections between the control housing and the heating plate are protected by a flexible metal hose. The entire surface of the glass ceramic top plate is heated by a special radiant heating element. The temperature range is adjustable from 50...500°C. The four feet, which can be adjusted in height by approx. 8 mm, allow the unit to be set up horizontally and wobble-free. The type 4SR has 4 support rod sockets at a distance of 100 mm.

Type EB-C - Built-In Devices

EB-C series (successor of EB-R series) is for installation in desks, supplied with mounting hardware. The evenly heated area is clearly marked on the glass-ceramic surface and designed to minimize heat losses to the tabletop and at the heating surface edges. The temperature range is adjustable from 50...500°C. The separate controller is intended for installation in a panel. The electrical connections between the temperature controller and the hotplate are protected by a flexible metal hose.

CT10 - Express Hotplate

The low-mass high-performance hotplate features a circular heating area with a diameter of 150 mm and a square glass-ceramic working surface measuring 175 × 175 mm. It is mounted in a durable stainless steel housing. The temperature is controlled by a power regulator 10...100%. The device reaches up to 500 °C in approximately 3 minutes. A built-in temperature monitor provides overheating protection.
