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 to 150 °C?
- Do you require refrigeration?
- 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, deep well plates, PCR strips, 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 equipment with a heated lid to prevent evaporation and condensation?
- Do you require an external temperature probe?
- Do you require equipment with two independent sections for temperature and time control?
- 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.
