Your Barnstead|Thermolyne Cimarec stirring hot plate is a
general purpose heating and stirring plate designed for
laboratory procedures requiring precise control of temperature and/or stirring speed. Each Cimarec stirring hot
plate model includes a digital display for monitoring actual
temperature. The hot plate is capable of producing accurately controlled top plate temperatures from 5°C through
540°C on all 4" x 4" and 7" x 7" models, and the 5°C
through 400°C on 10" x 10" models. The temperature is
controlled at the plate surface by an internal sensor.
The stirrer will accurately maintain stirring speeds from 60
rpm up to 1200 rpm. The top plate on the Cimarec units
is solid ceramic, and is suitable for use with glass or
metal vessels.
Your Cimarec stirring hot plate may be used for general
purpose heating applications and/or general laboratory
mixing of solutions, including sample preparation, heating
reagents, melting paraffin, warming resinous chemicals,
content analysis, solvent evaporations, digestions, media
preparation and sterilization, titrations, sand baths, and
microscale chemistry.
General Usage
Do not use this product for anything other than its intended usage.
8
Introduction
Each Cimarec unit utilizes the latest in microprocessor
technology to deliver a reliable, controlled, ceramic top
stirring hot plate.
Your Cimarec stirring hot plate has an electronic
closed-loop feedback control which will accurately
maintain temperature setpoints from 5°C through
400°C or 540°C, depending on the model. Top plate
surface temperatures are tested using the latest in
infrared temperature measurement. The measurements are made with an infrared camera mounted
approximately 26" above the top surface of the stirring
hot plate. If the temperature measurement of the
ceramic top is made with measurement devices other
than infrared, the error of the measuring technique may
be greater than the error of the unit.
The electronic stirring speed control will maintain the
speed setpoint when the unit is loaded at ±5.0%. The
motor in the Cimarec stirring hot plates produces maximum stirring torque under normal laboratory load conditions, and is combined with a powerful magnet to
provide exceptional magnetic coupling with a stir bar.
When stirring is turned off, the unique braking feature*
on the Cimarec models immediately brings the fluid
and stir bar down to a safe speed for quick flask
removal.

Principles of Operation
* Patent Pending
Unpacking
Remove your Cimarec stirring hot plate from the carton.
Inspect to ensure that the unit has not been damaged
during shipment. If the unit appears to have sustained
shipping damage contact the distributor from whom you

Cimarec Stirring Hot Plate
Cord
Stir Bar
Adapter (100V models only)
Knob
Operator’s Manual
If any of these items are missing from the carton, contact
Barnstead International.
Installation
Set the unit on a flat stable surface at least 12" away from
combustible materials, and plug the cordset into a properly grounded electrical outlet of correct voltage and current
handling capacity.
10
Unpacking and Installation
Warning
Use a properly grounded electrical
outlet of correct voltage and current
handling capacity.
11
When plugging in the stirring hot plate and powering it
up for the first time, you will see the software version
and hertz displayed briefly on the digital display.
There is no ON/OFF button on the Cimarec stirring hot
plate. Simply turn the HEAT and STIR knobs clockwise
to activate.
Setting the Stirring Speed
Your Cimarec stirring hot plate has an electronic feedback speed control which will maintain a speed setpoint from 60 rpm through 1200 rpm at ±5.0%.
(Maximum speed is dependent on viscosity of the solution.) The Cimarec stirring hot plates are equipped with
a strong magnet and high torque motor which will draw
a vortex in up to 1800 ml of water stirred in a 2 liter
flask with a new 2" stir bar (4"x4" models include a 1"
stir bar.)
To set the speed, turn the STIR knob to your desired
setting. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the speed
or counter-clockwise to decrease the speed. To discontinue stirring, turn knob counter-clockwise to OFF.
Operation
Warning
Use caution when heating volatile
materials; top surface and element
can reach the “Flash Point
Temperature” of many chemicals.
These hot plates and stirring hot
plates are not explosion proof. Fire or
explosion may result. Unit contains
components which may ignite such
materials.
Use appropriate hand and eye protection when handling hazardous chemicals.
“Caution: Hot Top. Avoid Contact.” The
top plate of the unit can remain hot for
some time after use. A “CAUTION HOT TOP” light will remain on until top
plate temperature cools to below
50°C.
Caution
To avoid damage to the top plate or
heating element, always keep a vessel
filled with liquid on the top plate of a
stirring hot plate when the unit is heating or cooling.
12
Setting the Temperature
Your Cimarec stirring hot plate has an electronic
closed-loop feedback control which will accurately
maintain temperature setpoints in 5° increments from
5°C through 400°C or 540°C, depending on the model.
An unloaded hot plate will heat to maximum temperature in just 8 minutes. The temperature is controlled at
the top plate by the internal sensor. A “CAUTION HOT TOP” light on the front panel will illuminate whenever the top surface temperature exceeds 50°C.
Your Cimarec stirring hot plate will display the temperature in °C. When choosing a setpoint, the display will
indicate the setpoint for 5 seconds, after which the display will flash until the desired setpoint is reached.
The display will alternate between “HOT” and “OFF”,
and the “CAUTION - HOT TOP” light will flash until the
top surface has cooled to below 50°C. Nothing will be
displayed on the screen when the unit has been cooled
below 50°C and the knob is turned to OFF.
To Achieve Fast Heat-up of
Large Volumes
If you are heating larger volumes, faster heating can
be achieved by turning the heat control knob to maximum temperature until the solution starts to heat, and
then turning the setpoint back to your desired top plate
temperature. The display will flash the new setpoint
until that temperature has been reached.
Heating Small Volumes
Preheating small volumes is not necessary as it may
cause the temperature to overshoot the desired setpoint.
OPERATION
Note
The solution temperature is approximately
25% cooler than the hot plate surface
temperature.
Note
If you allow the top plate to reach the
maximum temperature of 540°C while
preheating and then turn the control down
to a setpoint less than 200°C, the temperature of the top will drop rapidly to 200°C.
Because of the natural cooling characteristics of ceramic, the temperature of the
top will drop much more gradually after
the top plate temperature reaches 200°C.
Note
Boiling times are dependent on solution
volume and the surface area of the flask
that is exposed to the hot plate. For
example, when heating the same amount
of solution in a 2L flask vs. a 1L flask, the
solution will heat about 20% faster.
Heating Metal Vessels and
Sand Baths
Cimarec is capable of precisely regulating the top plate
temperature, metal vessels and sand baths may be
heated safely without the danger of the ceramic top
breaking. Use the lowest temperature setting possible
for applications to limit thermal stress to the ceramic
top. Using a metal vessel or sand bath may reduce
the life of the stirring hot plate.

Barnstead International (“BARNSTEAD”) warrants that a product manufactured by Barnstead shall be free of
defects in materials and workmanship for two (2) years from the first to occur of (i) the date the product is sold by
BARNSTEAD or (ii) the date the product is purchased by the original retail customer (the “Commencement
Date”). Except as expressly stated above, BARNSTEAD MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTY, EXPRESSED OR
IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE PRODUCTS AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES,
INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES OF DESIGN, MERCHANT ABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
An authorized representative of BARNSTEAD must perform all warranty inspections. In the event of a defect
covered by BARNSTEAD’s warranty, BARNSTEAD shall, as its sole obligation and exclusive remedy, provide free
replacement parts to remedy the defective product. In addition, for products sold by BARNSTEAD within the continental United States or Canada, BARNSTEAD shall provide free labor to repair the products with the replacement parts, but only for a period of ninety (90) days from the Commencement Date.
BARNSTEAD’s warranty provided hereunder shall be null and void and without further force or effect if there is
any (i) repair made to the product by a party other than BARNSTEAD or its duly authorized service representative, (ii) misuse (including use inconsistent with written operating instructions for the product), mishandling, contamination, overheating, modification or alteration of the product by any customer or third party or (iii) use of
replacement parts that are obtained from a party who is not an authorized dealer of BARNSTEAD.
Heating elements, because of their susceptibility to overheating and contamination, must be returned to the
BARNSTEAD factory and if, upon inspection, it is concluded that failure is due to factors other than excessive
high temperature or contamination, BARNSTEAD will provide warranty replacement. As a condition to the return
of any product, or any constituent part thereof, to BARNSTEAD’s factory, it shall be sent prepaid and a prior written authorization from BARNSTEAD assigning a Return Materials Number to the product or part shall be
obtained.
IN NO EVENT SHALL BARNSTEAD BE LIABLE TO ANY PARTY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY DAMAGES RESULTING FROM LOSS OF USE OR
PROFITS, ANTICIPATED OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SALE, USE
OR PERFORMANCE OF ANY PRODUCTS, WHETHER SUCH CLAIM IS BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT
(INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), ANY THEORY OF STRICT LIABILITY OR REGULATORY ACTION.
