The Steroglass 500ml (COMP-53) heating mantle is an excellent choice for those working in the pharmaceutical, chemical, cosmetic and food industries. This is a used device, but in excellent condition, offering high performance and the guarantee of uniform and controlled heating for various laboratory applications. The Steroglass is synonymous with quality and reliability, with years of experience in the field of laboratory instrumentation.
The Steroglass 500ml heating mantle has a compact and solid design. The main body is constructed from a single piece of rust-proof aluminium, fire-painted for greater resistance to external agents. The external appearance conveys a sense of robustness, suitable to withstand intense working conditions in the laboratory. The internal heating mesh, handmade with glass yarn, has no joints, a feature that guarantees uniform resistance to high temperatures.
The structure of the mantle is covered with a layer of high quality mineral wool, which allows for optimal thermal insulation, avoiding heat loss and keeping the temperature stable inside the container. This makes the Steroglass 500ml heating mantle a particularly safe and high-performance device, especially in work environments with flammable liquids.
The Steroglass 500ml is designed to accommodate vessels with a maximum capacity of 500ml , making it ideal for processing small to medium sized samples. The heating capacity is regulated via a thermoregulator with a numbered scale, which allows precise temperature control up to a maximum of 350°C .
The required power supply is 100-240V , with a power of 200 VA at 50 Hz , ensuring stable and safe operation in a wide range of laboratories and industrial environments. This makes the Steroglass 500ml heating mantle also suitable for laboratories where the electrical supply may vary slightly, a significant advantage over less flexible models.
The distinctive element of the Steroglass heating mantle is its integrated energy regulator. This component allows you to dose the intensity of the heat precisely, thanks to light indicators that signal both the power supply status and the actual operation of the heater. This allows you to maintain complete control during heating operations, reducing the risk of overheating and ensuring the integrity of the processed substances.
The procedure for use is extremely simple: just insert the glass or crystal container (up to 500 ml ) into the mantle, set the desired temperature using the thermoregulator and start heating. The heat distribution system is very efficient, thanks to the internal heating network which distributes the heat uniformly without points of excessive concentration.
Among the accessories that can be combined with this Steroglass 500ml heating mantle , there are supports to securely fix the container during heating and thermal probes for direct monitoring of the temperature of the liquid. Furthermore, it can be integrated with other laboratory instruments for combined operations, such as magnetic stirrers or cooling systems.
Main areas of use include pharmaceuticals , where it is used to heat delicate chemicals; the chemist , for laboratory experiments requiring precise temperature control; cosmetics and food , it is used for transformation processes that require controlled heating. It is also ideal for the medical device , where heated liquids must maintain a certain stability.
Maintenance of the Steroglass 500ml heating mantle is quite simple: simply clean the internal part periodically and make sure that the electrical connections are in good condition. Thanks to its sturdy, rust-proof aluminum construction, this tool is intended to last a long time, even in intense working environments.
As far as safety is concerned, Steroglass heating mantles follow the strictest regulations in the sector. CE certification , it is advisable to check compliance with current regulations and, if necessary, make the necessary modifications for use in regulated environments. This may include the addition of additional safety devices, such as overheat protection systems.
Buying a used Steroglass 500ml heating mantle is a great deal if the machine has been properly maintained. Before making the purchase, it is important to check that the heating system is working properly, that the temperature reaches the set values and that the shell body is free of damage or corrosion. A quick test with a temperature probe can provide confirmation of the temperature controller's accuracy.
Buying used is convenient because the quality of Steroglass is notoriously long-lasting. As machinery is built to resist wear and ensure optimal performance over time, a used model offers the same level of efficiency as a new one, at a significantly reduced cost.
In conclusion, the Steroglass 500ml (COMP-53) heating mantle represents a safe and advantageous choice for anyone working in the chemical, pharmaceutical or food sector. With a solid structure, high-level technical features and excellent ease of use, this equipment offers an excellent opportunity for those looking for a reliable and high-performance tool without having to bear the cost of a new product.
