2-Position Chilling/Heating Plate
Chill, heat, or freeze two separate sets of samples at two separate temperatures with individual control from -20°C to 100°C without a sample block. These completely solid-state 2-Position Chilling/Heating Dry Baths are versatile, reliable, and easy to use. Each heating/chilling station has its own Peltier module, and the entire unit has only two moving parts: the fans. Each plate can be set separately for any temperature within the range of the unit without interaction between the plates. It has simple digital controls and a two-line alphanumeric digital display that is backlit for easy viewing. The display shows the target and actual temperatures of both plates.
The chilling/heating surfaces are each 2.875” (7.3 cm) x 4.375” (11.1 cm) aluminum plates that are very flat for optimal contact with the sample blocks. When unloaded, the plates will reach below 0°C in under two minutes. They will heat to 37°C in under a minute. The chilling and heating rates will change with loads. For instance, temperatures to 4.0°C can be reached on sample blocks as large as 4” (10.2 cm) x 3” (7.6 cm) x 6” (15.2 cm) in about 30 minutes.
Units come complete with a bench-top power supply, instruction manual, and AC line cord. Sample blocks and covers are available as accessories and are shown on the price list.
