Description
MINISTAR 40 control S003 is a compact high-tech electronic overhead stirrer engineered for specialised laboratory applications. Positioned as the versatile model in the high-tech mini class, it reaches speeds of up to 1,000 min⁻¹ and handles viscosities up to 30.000 mPas with working volumes to 25 l. A high-quality glass display ensures excellent readability, while vibration detection automatically shuts the unit down if the stirring tool becomes unbalanced. Microprocessor-controlled regulation maintains constant speed even when viscosity changes, and the continuously adjustable range covers 0/30–1,000 min⁻¹. Additional functions include temperature measurement with on-screen display, a key-lock button, and an integrated timer. The chemical-resistant housing protects the instrument in demanding environments. USB connectivity supports parameter documentation, firmware updates and straightforward linking to labworldsoft® software. Supplied as a single unit with Swiss plug, this stirrer from manufacturer IKA combines power and precision in a minimal footprint for everyday and specialised mixing tasks.
This article is part of Overhead stirrers, in Stirring, shaking & mixing.

Questions about MINISTAR 40 control S003, Electronic overhead stirrer with Swiss plug
What is this article?
MINISTAR 40 control S003, Electronic overhead stirrer with Swiss plug 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.
