The Yamato MG-600H is a 6-point magnetic stirrer with an integrated hot plate at every position, six independent stirring-and-heating stations in a single W606 x D420 mm bench chassis. Each of the six ø126 mm ceramic-coated aluminum plates has its own rotation and heating control, so six reactions can run at different speeds and temperatures simultaneously. Built for parallel chemical-synthesis and dissolution work where one bench footprint must serve many flasks at once. This is the 115V variant, which draws 13.5A and ships with an external transformer; the electrically identical MG-600H-220V (7A) is the international-voltage twin at the same list price.

Application Profile
The MG-600H is purpose-built for parallel bench chemistry where a single instrument must serve multiple simultaneous reactions:
- Multi-sample chemical synthesis. Six flasks under independent stir and heat, each tuned to its own protocol.
- Comparative reaction screening. Run a temperature or speed series across the six positions at once (method development, condition optimization).
- Batch dissolution and sample prep. Parallel dissolution, digestion, or reagent preparation across up to six 100–2000 mL vessels.
- Teaching and shared-facility labs. One instrument covers a full bench of student or multi-user stations.
- Equipped with a circuit protector for continuous multi-position operation.
Because each position combines stirring with heating up to 250 °C, the MG-600H suits warm reactions and dissolutions that a stir-only plate cannot support. There is no active cooling. Operating range is heat-and-stir above ambient.
Design Architecture
Each of the six stations is a self-contained magnetic-stir + hot-plate unit: an AC shading motor drives the magnetic coupling at 300–1500 rpm, while a dedicated 230 W heater under a ceramic-coated aluminum plate provides heat to a max 250 °C under triac input control. Heating on each position is set by volume (with an OFF position) and adjusted independently of that position's rotation, so speed and temperature never share a control.
The chemical-resistant ceramic coating on each aluminum plate resists the spills and vapors typical of synthesis work. At 115V the unit draws 13.5A and is supplied with an external transformer (the 220V twin draws 7A). The 14 kg, W606 x D420 mm chassis is a fixed-position bench instrument rather than a portable stirrer.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions does the MG-600H have? Six independently controllable stir-and-heat stations, each with its own ø126 mm ceramic-coated aluminum plate and its own rotation and heating control.
What stirring and temperature range does each position offer? 300–1500 rpm stirring for 100–2000 mL vessels, with heating to a maximum plate temperature of 250 °C via a dedicated 230 W heater under triac control.
Does it provide cooling? No. There is no active cooling. The operating range is heat-and-stir above ambient.
What is included? The main unit (six stir/heat positions), six 30 mm stirrer bars, and the external transformer for 115V operation.
What voltage does it require? AC 115V, 13.5A, 50/60 Hz, supplied with an external transformer. Verify branch-circuit capacity for the 13.5A draw. The electrically identical MG-600H-220V (7A) is the international-voltage twin.

As a capital multi-position instrument, the MG-600H is quoted rather than added directly to cart. Confirm at quote:
- Voltage / plug. 115V (this SKU, external transformer, 13.5A) vs 220V (MG-600H-220V, 7A). Verify branch-circuit capacity for the 13.5A draw.
- Vessel mix. The 100–2000 mL per-position window and ø126 mm plate size against your flask footprints.
- Bench space. The W606 x D420 mm footprint and ~14 kg weight.
Warranty: per Yamato standard terms. Confirm at quote.
