• Place the magnetic stirrer on a clean, dry, stable, and level laboratory workbench.
• Keep sufficient clearance around the unit for ventilation and safe operation.
• Connect the equipment to the specified 220 V / 50 Hz electrical supply.
• Place a clean magnetic stir bar inside the laboratory beaker before adding the prepared liquid.
• Center the beaker on the working platform to maintain stable magnetic coupling.
• Begin stirring at a low speed and increase gradually until stable liquid circulation is achieved.
• Set or monitor temperature according to the semen extender manufacturer's preparation instructions.
• Confirm that the extender powder is completely dissolved before using the solution for semen dilution.

• Disconnect electrical power and allow the platform to cool before cleaning.
• Wipe the working surface with a soft cloth and laboratory-compatible cleaning agent.

• Inspect the power cable, control knob, temperature probe, and accessories periodically.
• Do not operate the unit with damaged electrical components.
• Avoid placing oversized or unstable containers on the platform.
• Store the unit in a clean and dry laboratory environment when not in use.

Q: What is this magnetic stirrer mainly used for?
A: It is mainly used for dissolving boar semen extender powder in purified water and preparing a uniform extender solution before semen dilution.

Q: Why use a magnetic stirrer instead of manual stirring?
A: Magnetic stirring provides continuous and uniform liquid circulation, reduces manual workload, and can improve consistency during preparation of semen extender solutions.

Q: Does the unit include heating?
A: Yes. The listed model has a 300 W heating system and digital temperature display.

Q: What is the maximum stirring speed?
A: The listed adjustable speed range is 0–2400 rpm.

Q: Should semen extender be mixed at the maximum speed?
A: Not necessarily. The appropriate speed depends on liquid volume, vessel size, stir bar size, and extender formulation. Start at a low speed and increase only as required to achieve stable and complete mixing.

Q: Can the magnetic stirrer be used to heat semen directly?
A: The unit is primarily intended for laboratory solution and extender preparation. Semen itself should only be handled according to validated semen-processing temperature procedures to avoid thermal damage to sperm cells.

Q: What type of container should be used?
A: A clean laboratory beaker or another compatible flat-bottom container that fits securely on the 120 mm platform should be used.

Q: How should the magnetic stir bar be cleaned?
A: The stir bar should be washed, rinsed, and disinfected according to the semen laboratory hygiene protocol before reuse to reduce the risk of contamination.

Q: Is the stirrer suitable for commercial boar studs?
A: Yes. It is suitable for boar studs, commercial semen production centers, pig AI laboratories, breeding companies, and veterinary reproduction laboratories that routinely prepare semen extender.
