VELP AREC 10 Series Heating Magnetic Stirrers
The VELP AREC 10 Series are large-surface ceramic hotplate stirrers featuring a spacious 10x10-inch plate, engineered for temperature-sensitive and demanding applications where a larger working area is essential. Available in two variants, the AREC 10 Digital and the fully featured AREC 10 Advance, both models handle volumes up to 25 L and offer heating up to 550 °C along with precise medium thermoregulation via Pt100, Pt1000, or VTF probe. The robust ceramic top plate delivers exceptional chemical and scratch resistance with easy wipe-down cleaning, while a brushless motor with SpeedServo™ torque compensation maintains consistent stirring performance under changing load conditions. The AREC 10 Advance builds on the Digital with programmable temperature and speed ramps, viscosity trend monitoring, auto-reverse, intermittent mode, a safety lock, and remote control via the VELP Ermes Cloud Platform over Wi-Fi, making it the choice for the most demanding workflows. Designed and manufactured in Italy, the AREC 10 Series is built for laboratories that need serious heating and stirring capacity without compromise.
