High-Torque Overhead Stirrer Solutions for Demanding Laboratory Applications
The High Torque and Speed Overhead Stirrer range by Wiggens, available from Apex Scientific, delivers precision mixing for medium to high viscosity liquids and solid-liquid mixtures. Designed for laboratories in South Africa, the WOHS-200 Pro, WOHS-400 Pro, and WOHS-20 HPro models offer high-performance stirring for chemical synthesis, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and related scientific fields.
Powerful and Versatile Mixing Performance
Each stirrer in this series supports high-viscosity, large-volume sample mixing. Advanced microcomputer control keeps the speed constant—even under heavy load. Additionally, adjustable speed settings and torque outputs offer exceptional flexibility. At low speed, torque exceeds high-speed torque by over five times. Therefore, whether emulsifying complex compounds or suspending particles, these stirrers provide the strength and consistency needed for demanding tasks.
Built for Durability and Continuous Operation
A brushless DC motor powers each unit, ensuring quiet, maintenance-free performance. This motor handles high loads with ease and is optimized for daily use. As a result, labs experience less downtime and fewer maintenance issues. Furthermore, each stirrer works with various impellers to suit different viscosities and mixing goals.
Intuitive and Scientist-Friendly User Interface
Wiggens stirrers prioritize usability. A bright TFT display provides high-contrast visibility, even from a distance. You can control speed using the central turning knob and responsive touch keys, accurate to ±1 rpm. Operational status is easy to interpret: blue indicates standby, green signals active use, and red shows an alarm. This color-coded interface ensures you always know the status of your equipment.
Advanced Features for Enhanced Control
These stirrers include a keyless chuck that allows tool-free shaft changes with a clamping range of 0.5–10 mm. RS232 and RS485 communication ports enable automated control and logging. Moreover, the digital timer can be set for up to 99 hours and 59 minutes. An integrated temperature sensor provides measurements from -10 to 350 °C, with 0.1 °C resolution for precise monitoring.
