The Master Science 550°C LED Hot Plate is a single-position laboratory heater with a 184 × 184 mm glass ceramic work plate. The glass ceramic surface resists chemicals and transfers heat efficiently, and the plate can be set from room temperature up to 550°C in 5°C steps.
An LED display shows the temperature, and an external PT1000 probe can be connected for direct control of the sample temperature with ±0.5°C accuracy. A separate safety circuit with a fixed 580°C limit and a flashing HOT warning above 50°C, even after switch-off, make the Master Science 550°C LED Hot Plate safe for daily use.

Problems the Master Science 550°C LED Hot Plate Solves
Basic hot plates can overheat or leave operators guessing. The Master Science 550°C LED Hot Plate helps with:
- Uncertain sample temperature: An external PT1000 probe controls the liquid directly.
- Corroded heating surfaces: Glass ceramic resists chemicals.
- Accidental burns: The HOT warning flashes while the plate is still hot.
- Runaway heating: An independent safety circuit cuts out at 580°C.
