FAQs
How accurate is the temperature control in this water bath?
The temperature is maintained with an accuracy of ±0.2 °C (according to DIN 12876-3). Fine adjustment is carried out in increments of 0.1 °C directly via the display or via software.
Can the water bath circulate both internally and externally?
Yes, thanks to the integrated pump, the device can be used for external circulation, which is particularly useful for applications with external temperature control.
What safety precautions are in place for everyday operation?
A float switch protects against damage caused by low water levels, while an overtemperature shut-off and acoustic/visual alarms provide early warning of malfunctions.
What volume sizes are available and how is the medium changed?
Models with a volume of 12 litres or more have a drain cock for easy and safe emptying and cleaning of the bath.
Can the device be programmed and controlled?
Up to 10 different programmes with 100 segments each can be stored. The device can be controlled via the touchscreen or via LabwiseTM PC software.
Is the device suitable for continuous operation or sensitive samples?
Yes, its long service life, robust construction and reliable temperature control make the system ideal for use in continuous laboratory operation - even with sensitive samples and substances.
What connection voltages are supported?
All models can be used flexibly with 120 or 230 V at 50-60 Hz mains voltage.
