They offer a safer alternative to open flames and are commonly used in chemistry, biology, and other scientific disciplines.<\/p>\n<p>Hotplates Heavy Duty<br \/> Heavy-duty hotplates are robust, high-temperature, or continuous-use heating devices designed for industrial, laboratory, and commercial applications. They provide reliable, uniform heat for tasks like material testing (e.g., concrete), chemical, biological, or analytical reactions, and high-volume food preparation, often featuring durable surfaces like metal or ceramic. <\/p>\n<p>Key Uses for Heavy-Duty Hotplates:<br \/> Laboratory &amp; Scientific Applications:<br \/> Sample Preparation: Used for digestion, extraction, and distillation of samples in analytical labs.<br \/> Chemical Reactions: Ideal for heating reaction mixtures and facilitating, or catalyzing chemical reactions.<br \/> Microbiology: Used for maintaining, melting, and preparing agar media in cell culture studies.<br \/> Material Testing: Used in construction materials laboratories, such as for testing concrete cylinders.<br \/> High-Temperature Work: Some digital hotplate, reach up to<br \/> 550\u2218C ~550\u2218C for demanding tasks.<\/p>\n<p>Industrial &amp; Industrial Support:<br \/> Material Testing &amp; Curing: Curing resins, adhesives, or testing stability in R&amp;D labs.<br \/> Continuous Operations: Designed for long-term use in manufacturing or processing environments.<br \/> Commercial Kitchen Applications:<br \/> Heavy-Duty Cooking: Used in busy restaurants for rapid boiling, simmering, or pan-frying, often with high power to speed up service times.<br \/> Temperature Control: Digital models allow for precise, granular control from a rolling boil to a gentle simmer.<br \/> Features for Heavy-Duty Use:<br \/> Durable Build: Often made with mild steel or ceramic for corrosion resistance.<br \/> Safety &amp; Stability: They offer a safer alternative to open flames.<br \/> Advanced Control: Man models, feature precise PID or energy regulation for consistent performance. <\/p>\n<p>Hotplate Heavy Duty<\/p>\n<p>Hotplates Heavy Duty<\/p>\n<p><strong>Features:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Heavy duty mild steel heating top with special coating<\/li>\n<li>Mild steel body treated for long term resistance to corrosion with an epoxy powder coated finish<\/li>\n<li>Unique body design to ensure maximum cooling airflow for the controls and wiring<\/li>\n<li>Suitable for continuous operation<\/li>\n<li>Variable energy regulator for optimum heat control<\/li>\n<li>Pilot light for power indication<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Technical Data 513<\/p>\n<p>Model No. <strong>500 501 502<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>External dimensions (mm)<\/p>\n<p>Surface Width: 300 450 600<\/p>\n<p>Height: 140 140 140<\/p>\n<p>Surface Depth: 300 300 450<\/p>\n<p>Electrical connection (V\/hz) 230\/50 230\/50 230\/50<\/p>\n<p>Power rating @ 230V (W) 1500 2000 3000<\/p>\n<p>Gross weight (kg) 16 22 31<\/p>\n<p>Hotplates Heavy Duty<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hotplate Heavy Duty: Model 501<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":59350,"template":"","meta":{"content-type":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[8222],"product_tag":[15864],"class_list":{"0":"post-59306","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-hotplate-and-magnetic-stirrers","7":"product_tag-hotplates-heavy-duty","9":"first","10":"instock","11":"shipping-taxable","12":"purchasable","13":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/chestxray.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product\/59306","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/chestxray.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/chestxray.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chestxray.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/59350"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/chestxray.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=59306"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chestxray.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_brand&post=59306"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chestxray.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_cat&post=59306"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chestxray.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_tag&post=59306"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
