FAQ
What temperature range and accuracy do these baths provide?
Operating range is RT + 5 °C to 99.9 °C with 0.1 °C display resolution and stability of ±0.5 °C (2 L, 5 L) or ±0.3 °C (13 L, 24 L).
Do the baths include a lid and base tray?
Yes. Each unit ships with a transparent lid (with probe port) and a base tray to elevate samples for improved uniformity.
Is there protection against dry start and overheating?
Yes. Dry-start protection and an over-temperature cut-off with alarm are built in to safeguard samples and equipment.
Can I program and save setpoints?
You can store up to three quick-launch programs and run either continuous or timed cycles (up to 99 h 59 min on larger models).
Is calibration simple?
Yes. A guided two-point calibration (low/high) is accessible via the glass-touch interface. Annual calibration is recommended per lab protocol.
