Typical areas of application
Thanks to its stable temperature control and fast response times, the circulating thermostat is suitable for numerous applications in laboratories and manufacturing, including:
-
Temperature control of technical equipment: Ensures constant conditions during automated manufacturing steps and process series.
-
Material testing and stress tests: Essential for determining temperature resistance and ageing processes in plastics, metals or composite materials.
-
Basic research and experimental science: Fine adjustment of temperature profiles for biochemical analyses, cell culture, protein expression or enzymatic reactions.
-
Reactor temperature control: For syntheses and scalable experiments in chemical laboratories or technical centres, especially where precise temperature profiles are required for substances such as ethanol, water, glycol or silicone oil.
-
Sample preparation: Precise heating and cooling of laboratory materials, plant juices, blood sera or reference solutions for stabilisation prior to analysis.
-
Temperature simulation: Simulation of environmental conditions for materials research or service life testing of electronic components and sensors.
The flexibility in terms of usable cooling and heating media (e.g. special fluids, silicone oils or water-glycol mixtures) allows precise adjustment to the respective application and temperature requirements.
FAQs about the refrigerated circulator
Maintenance and operating costs
The system is designed for minimal maintenance. It is recommended to regularly check the coolant level and the function of the ventilation openings. Longer downtimes are minimised by robust components and filters.
Selection of the appropriate temperature fluid
Only use fluids approved for the temperature range, such as water, ethanol, glycol or commercially available silicone-based heat transfer oils. Always follow the manufacturer's recommendations for maximum operational safety and a long service life of the device.
Reaching the target temperature
The optimised cooling system and powerful heating allow for rapid temperature changes. The time required to reach the target temperature depends on the model selected, the volume of the medium and the temperature difference, but is typically in the range of a few minutes.
Continuous operation
The device is designed for continuous operation under laboratory conditions. Continuous use over several hours or days is possible without any problems and without compromising temperature stability or reliability.
