Surge Scientific · Model MS310 · "Tenson" 10-Position Series
10-Position Magnetic Hot Plate Stirrer
LED Digital Display
10 Synchronous Positions · Wear-Free Electromagnetic Drive · 120°C Heating · 0–1200 RPM · 99h Timer
Ten parallel runs on one footprint — synchronous heating and stirring across ten positions, all driven by a wear-free electromagnetic coil array with no moving parts under any plate. Heating to 120°C, sample temperature to 70°C, and a 0–99h 59min timer that lets a single technician run a 10-sample dissolution screen in the time it used to take to set up two of them.
Why an Electromagnetic Array Beats Ten Separate Stirrers
The naive way to run ten parallel samples is to line up ten standard stirrers — at which point you've consumed a meter of bench, ten power cords, ten different speed knobs that drift differently, and ten motors with ten independent service intervals. The samples that should be identical aren't, because the hardware mixing them isn't.
The MS310 puts ten electromagnetic stirring positions on a single 470 × 205 mm plate, all driven from one synchronized controller. Identical RPM at every station. Identical heating profile. Zero moving parts — the magnetic coils switch the field electronically, so there are no bearings to wear, no motors to fail, and no acoustic noise across an entire bench of parallel runs.
10 Synchronous Positions
Ten stirring positions on a single plate, 93 mm spacing, all driven at the same RPM and held at the same temperature. Reproducibility built into the geometry.
Wear-Free Electromagnetic Drive
No motors, no bearings, no brushes under any of the ten positions. The magnetic coils switch the field electronically — silent, vibration-free, and built for years of duty.
Heating + Economy Mode
Heats to 120°C with a 150°C safety cutoff. Economic mode auto-heats at low temperature for unattended overnight equilibrations without runaway risk.
99h Timer · Reverse Rotation
Continuous or timed operation up to 99h 59min with auto-shutoff. LED display shows speed, temperature, reverse-rotation status, and error codes for instant diagnosis.
"Ten samples. One controller. Zero moving parts." — The MS310 is built for parallel chemistry — synchronous heating and stirring across ten positions, driven by an electromagnetic array that has nothing mechanical to wear out.

Ideal Applications
Parallel Dissolution
Ten-sample dissolution screens, formulation development, and pharmacopoeia studies where every sample sees the same shear and the same temperature.
Microbiology & Media
Parallel media warming, broth equilibration, and reagent prep — ten beakers ready when the protocol needs them, none waiting on a queue.
Teaching & Training
One instrument supports a full bench of students or a multi-condition class lab — identical hardware, identical results, simpler grading.
What's in the Box
The MS310 ships ready for bench use — stir bars sized for the position spacing are sold separately to match your sample geometry.
