Cell Stirring Module

Tubing Connections and Operation

The cell stirring module can be driven by either water or air. Water is
preferable because it is more easily controlled. Water temperature can be up to
100 C (212 F) with a maximum allowable back pressure of 4 bar
(approximately 60 psi). If air is used to drive the cell stirring module, the
pressure should be less than 0.3 bar (approximately 5 psi) when the stirrer is
started. Again, the maximum pressure is 4 bar (approximately 60 psi).
There are several ways you can connect a water or air supply to the cell
stirring module, see Figure 15. In all cases we recommend using 3/16 inch i.d.
silicon tubing between the water supply and the stirring module.
• The stirring module can be used alone, without the thermostattable
• The same water supply can be used to regulate sample cell temperature and
