Useful details
You have purchased a high-quality product in this device.
Problem-free operation is ensured as a result of its convenient
form and simple handling characteristics. The materials which
were used and their precise identification allow and signifi-
cantly simplify recycling and the reuse of parts.
The speed-controlled, two-pulse EU external rotor motor
makes infinite settings of the rotational speed possible in a
range from 0 to 2000 RPM. The electronic motor regulation
maintains the set speed at a constant, even with slight increa-
ses in viscosity.
Commissioning
Check whether the voltage given on the type plate corre-
sponds to the available mains voltage. Before beginning ope-
ration, be sure that the knob for setting the rotational speed is
set completely to the left stop. If not, the device will begin to
run at the last rotational speed setting.
If these conditions have been met, the machine is ready to
operate when the mains plug is plugged in. If these conditions
8
are not met, safe operation is not guaranteed and the machine
could be damaged.
Observe the ambient conditions (temperature, humidity, etc.)
listed under Technical Data.
Output shaft
The output shaft is designed as a plug-in coupling in order to
allow the quick changeover of the stirrer tools. The stirrer tools
must have a shaft diameter of 4 mm in order to ensure that
they are properly held by the plug-in coupling.
Maintenance and cleaning
The stirrer RW 11 basic are maintenance-free. It is subject
only to the natural wear and tear of components and their sta-
tistical failure rate.
