Key Features & Capabilities

The Compact Digital Stirrer BDC2002 is a stirrer that maximizes productivity, fits into any area of the laboratory including a fume hood or enclosed workstation, gives accurate, repeatable results every time.

Illuminated Observation: By pressing a button, the distinctive Stirlight™ illuminates, allowing solutions to be observed clearly without added external lighting.

Brushless DC Motor Technology: Similar to our other stirrers, the CompactDigital™ utilizes a brushless DC (BDC) motor to mix larger quantities for extended periods at increased speeds while reducing maintenance needs.

Smooth, Quiet, & Efficient Drive: The belt‑driven system operates smoothly and silently while providing excellent power efficiency, minimizing distraction in shared lab spaces.

Intuitive Touch Controls: The four buttons on the Compact Digital Stirrer’s touch control — power on/off, speed up, speed down, and light on/off — are user‑friendly and responsive for precision adjustments.

For laboratories requiring consistent liquid preparation and sample homogenization, complementary mixing equipment can further optimize workflow efficiency. Instruments such as the Scilogex Vortex Mixer MX-S provide rapid agitation for small tubes and biological samples, supporting routine analytical preparation tasks. For applications involving larger vessels or culture flasks, the Scilogex K-O330-Pro Orbital Shaker delivers smooth orbital motion with precise electronic speed control for reliable mixing across research and industrial environments. When heating and stirring must be performed simultaneously during reagent preparation or solution development, the Ohaus Guardian 5000™ Hotplate Stirrers offer integrated temperature regulation and durable construction designed for demanding laboratory operations.

Q&A

What is the maximum volume this stirrer can mix effectively?

The Compact Digital Stirrer BDC2002 is suitable for a wide range of volumes up to moderate lab‑scale liquid volumes, depending on viscosity and stirring bar size. For best performance, use appropriately sized stir bars for your specific application.

Can the stirrer run continuously for long experiments?

Yes, the BDC2002’s brushless DC motor and belt drive system are designed for prolonged operation with minimal wear, making it well‑suited for long‑duration mixing tasks.

Is the lighting adjustable or fixed?

The integrated Stirlight™ is switched on and off with a dedicated button, providing bright illumination for observing solutions. While brightness levels are fixed, the light enhances visibility in enclosed or low‑light workstations.

How do I clean and maintain the Compact Digital Stirrer?

Disconnect the unit before cleaning. Wipe the exterior surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid getting liquids into the control panel or motor housing. Routine inspection of the drive belt for wear is recommended to ensure long‑term performance.
