Handling methods of common failures of magnetic stirrer

Troubleshooting of Magnetic Stirrer

Q: What should I do if the rotor of the magnetic stirrer does not move?

A: You can check if the stirring viscosity is too high and the magnetic force is not enough; or if you need to change a high-power magnetic stirrer or mechanical or electric stirrer.

If it is not the reason for stirring the sample, then check whether it is the problem with the accessories of the magnetic stirrer itself, and after-sales maintenance is required.

Q: How to clean the rotor?

A: It is recommended to select medium speed when mixing. When in use, after starting the power, adjust from low speed to high speed to prevent direct adjustment to high speed to cause the stir bar to jump, which affects the normal start and reduces the service life of the magnetic stirrer.

Q: How to extend the service life of magnetic stirrer?

A: (1) You can check whether the stirring viscosity is too high and the magnetic force is not enough; or whether it is necessary to change a high-power magnetic stirrer or mechanical or electric stirrer.

(2) If it is not the reason for stirring the sample, then check whether it is a problem with the accessories of the magnetic stirrer itself, and after-sales maintenance is required.

Q: How to choose the magnetic stirrer rotor?

A: The size of the rotor ensures a good mixing effect, which should match the size of your beaker.
