High-performance hotplate for temperatures up to 600°C with a very short heating-up time (600°C within 20 minutes). The extremely efficient insulation allows the appliance to also be used on working surfaces which are not heat-resistant.  The insulated hinged lid has been designed to keep heat loss to the absolute minimum.

The temperature can either be controlled with a temperature or programme controller. With the temperature controller the hotplate's complete heating surface is held at a constant selected temperature.

The programme controller allows so-called temperature profiles to be worked with, i.e. selected heating-up, cooling off and stop phases (maximum of 5 stages) can be programmed, whereby each phase can last up to 5 hours 59 minutes.
