Benchmark BDC2010 Digital Overhead Stirrer for Chemical and Biological Sample Mixing

The Overhead Stirrer BDC2010 delivers 50% more power than the BDC2002 while keeping the same compact footprint, Stirlight™, and through shaft

The BDC2010 overhead stirrer is widely recognized in laboratory and industrial settings for its robust performance and precise mixing capabilities. Studies in laboratory mixing have highlighted the benefits of using brushless DC motors for consistent torque and reduced maintenance, which the BDC2010 provides. Peer reviews and customer feedback frequently note its reliability, ease of use, and versatility across applications, including chemical reactions, sample preparation, and educational demonstrations. This stirrer is popular among labs requiring accurate, repeatable results and those working with varying viscosities of liquids, offering both professional and practical user satisfaction.

Flexible and Repeatable

The BDC2010 works smarter and allows the user complete mixing control. The stirring direction can be changed with the touch of the reversing button. The countdown timer times a stirring activity and beeps when completed. In xRx mode the stirrer is set up to continuously reverse from one direction to the other for a set length of time.

For applications requiring higher torque and the ability to process larger or more viscous batches, the High Torque Stirrer Caframo BDC3030 offers enhanced performance and speed control for demanding mixing operations. In workflows where heating and mixing must be carried out simultaneously, the Ohaus Guardian 5000™ Hotplate Stirrers provide integrated temperature control with consistent magnetic stirring for laboratory solutions and reagents. For smaller-volume analytical or chemical preparation tasks, the Magnetic Stirring Heating Mantle 500 enables precise heating and agitation in a compact format suitable for research, quality control, and educational laboratory environments.

Q&A

What liquids can the BDC2010 handle?

The BDC2010 can handle a wide range of viscosities, from thin aqueous solutions to more viscous chemical mixtures, maintaining consistent speed and torque throughout.

How accurate is the timing function?

The countdown timer provides precise control, stopping the stirrer automatically at the end of the set period, ensuring repeatable and accurate results for laboratory experiments.

Can the direction of stirring be changed during operation?

Yes, the reversing button allows you to switch between clockwise and counter-clockwise rotation at any time, providing flexibility for different mixing needs.

Is maintenance difficult?

No, the brushless DC motor reduces wear and requires minimal maintenance, while impeller adjustments through the through shaft are quick and straightforward.

What is included with the BDC2010?

It comes with a chuck, chuck key, mounting support rod, external power supply, and grounded power cord. Clamps, stands, and additional impellers are available separately.
