Heated directly by the stirrer’s<br />
hotplate; Digital temperature<br />
control ±0.5˚C<br />
Central inlet/outlet for vacuum and gas,<br />
combined with a radial gas distribution<br />
system and gas-tight PTFE caps allow<br />
reactions under an inert atmosphere<br />
Stainless Steel radial gas<br />
distribution barbs for improved<br />
chemical resistance<br />
Water cooled aluminium reflux head<br />
provides efficient refluxing within<br />
individual glass reaction tubes<br />
Round design makes all reaction<br />
tubes visible; with no need to lean<br />
into the fume cupboard<br />
Utilises the single rotating magnetic<br />
field of the hotplate stirrer to stir all<br />
the positions evenly and powerfully<br />
Quick release water coupling with<br />
cut-off valve for ease of connection removal<br />
of cooling water supply to reflux head<br />
Low profile base<br />
reduces heat-up time<br />
Provides twelve heated and stirred<br />
glass reaction positions, with<br />
a reaction volume of 5 to 20ml<br />
Easy to operate and set-up with minimal<br />
training time. No electrical or moving<br />
parts ensures maintenance free operation<br />
Rare earth cross shaped stirring<br />
bars for more vigorous stirring and<br />
a deeper vortex, without jamming<br />
Compact size has small bench-top<br />
footprint - easy to store<br />
Low profile base increases maximum<br />
recommended operating temperature from<br />
160˚C to 180˚C (220˚C for short periods)<br />
Fits on a standard <strong>Carousel</strong> or IKA<br />
hotplate stirrer, so utilising existing<br />
and readily available technology<br />

Gas Tight PTFE Caps with PTFE Valve<br />
Quick release water coupling with shut-off valve<br />
All positions stirred powerfully & evenly Innovative PTFE magnetic stirring bars <strong>Carousel</strong> Work-Up Station designed for use with <strong>Carousel</strong> Tubes<br />
What’s New?<br />
• Increased maximum operating temperature range from<br />
ambient to +180°C (220˚C for short periods).<br />
• Low profile base reduces heat-up time.<br />
• Quick release water coupling with shut-off value for ease<br />
of connection and removal of cooling water supply<br />
to reflux head.<br />
• Stainless Steel radial gas distribution barbs for improved<br />
chemical resistance.<br />
Standard Features<br />
• Simultaneously performs up to twelve heated and<br />
stirred reactions.<br />
• Individual glass reaction tubes have a working volume<br />
of 5 to 20ml per tube.<br />
• Fits on a standard <strong>Carousel</strong> or IKA hotplate stirrer or<br />
similar, utilising existing & readily available technology.<br />
• Utilises the single rotating magnetic field of the hotplate<br />
stirrer to stir all the positions evenly and powerfully.<br />
• Water cooled aluminium reflux head provides efficient<br />
refluxing within individual glass reaction tubes.<br />
• A central inlet/outlet for vacuum & inert gas, combined<br />
with a radial gas distribution system & gas-tight PTFE<br />
caps, allows reactions under an inert atmosphere.<br />
• Round design makes all reaction tubes visible, with<br />
no need to lean into the fume cupboard.<br />
• No electrical or moving parts ensures maintenance<br />
free operation.<br />
• Easy to operate and set-up – minimal training time.<br />
• Compact size with a small bench-top footprint.<br />
Innovative Stirring and Temperature Control<br />
The patented <strong>Carousel</strong> provides heating, stirring and<br />
refluxing with inert gas control of twelve reaction<br />
tubes simultaneously.<br />
Efficient Refluxing<br />
The integrated water cooled reflux head ensures even<br />
and extremely efficient refluxing, minimising solvent<br />
evaporation during synthesis for even the most volatile<br />
solvents such as ether. Cooling water is introduced<br />
through quick connect couplings with shut-off valve.<br />
Radial Gas Distribution/Inlet System<br />
The radial gas distribution/inlet system is built into<br />
the centre of the reflux head to create an inert atmosphere<br />
for air sensitive/moisture sensitive chemistry. The single<br />
central inlet/outlet is designed for a tidy installation<br />
and easy purging.<br />
