Dry baths, also known as thermoblocks, are laboratory equipment designed for heating and, in some models, precise cooling of samples in tubes or microplates, ensuring high thermal uniformity and stability throughout the process. They use interchangeable metal blocks that allow them to accommodate different shapes and volumes of containers, making them versatile for various laboratory applications.
Available in versions with and without cooling, these devices offer precise digital temperature control and may include additional features such as programmable timer and agitation control, ideal for protocols that require controlled incubation and simultaneous homogenization.
Specifications of the various models available:
- Desired maximum temperature: 100 or 150 °C?
- Do you require refrigeration? If so, what is the desired minimum temperature (ambient temperature -25°C to 100°C, ambient temperature -15°C to 100°C, or ambient temperature -10°C to 100°C)?
- Do you require agitation? If so:
- Maximum speed up to 1500 or 3000 rpm. Which do you prefer?
- 2 mm or 3 mm orbit. Is this relevant?
- Do you require a timer?
- Do you only want adjustment (simple control) or to define cycles and parameters (advanced control) for agitation, temperature, and time?
- We have a range of interchangeable block accessories, including microtube holders for 0.2, 0.5, 1.5 and 2 mL (conical and round bottom), 5, 15 and 50 ml tubes, water bath, 96 or 384 well microplates, 10 mm cuvettes, 2 and 5 ml cryotubes, 6 to 25 mm tubes. Which blocks do you require and the maximum capacity (number of tubes per block)?
- Do you require a dry bath with metal beads/microbeads?
Please inform us of the desired specifications and our team will recommend the most suitable equipment.
