Description
MINISTAR 20 control laboratory stirrers are overhead laboratory stirring units rated for working volumes of up to 15 l. With a power rating of 60/46 W and a selectable speed range of 50–2000/min, the instrument supports controlled agitation for routine mixing, dissolution and homogenisation on the laboratory bench. Each unit is supplied with a Pt 1000 H 67.60 temperature measuring sensor and R 300 stirrer shaft protection, allowing temperature to be monitored during operation while the drive shaft is mechanically safeguarded. The stirrer is delivered as 1 pc and has a weight of 3,470 kg. Within the MINISTAR control range from manufacturer IKA, this model addresses small- to medium-volume stirring tasks where adjustable speed and integrated temperature sensing are required. The stated volume capacity, power class and broad speed window define a clear performance envelope for research, quality-control and teaching laboratories. Ready-to-use accessories included with the drive complete a practical package for day-to-day sample preparation and process development work up to the specified 15 l limit, without the need for separately sourced shaft protection or a matching Pt 1000 probe.
This article is part of Overhead stirrers, in Stirring, shaking & mixing.

Questions about MINISTAR 20 control laboratory stirrers, up to 15 l, 60/46 W, 50-2000/min
What is this article?
MINISTAR 20 control laboratory stirrers, up to 15 l, 60/46 W, 50-2000/min is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes IKA for laboratory use. It sits in Overhead stirrers, inside Stirring, shaking & mixing, in Lab instruments.
An overhead stirrer drives a shaft from above, for volumes and viscosities a magnetic bar cannot move. Torque and speed range are the ratings. The chuck and the stand are part of using it. A high-speed disperser is a different head.
Stirring keeps a mixture uniform or helps a solid dissolve. A magnetic stirrer spins a bar inside a closed vessel. An overhead stirrer drives a shaft when the liquid is viscous or the volume is large. A vortex mixer agitates a tube. A shaker moves a whole rack or a plate. The shape of the impeller and the speed decide whether the liquid turns over or merely spins. The vessels being stirred are indexed under ISO laboratory glassware.
