Laboratory Cold Plate TCP

Many lab experiments require immediate cooling steps in a very accurate manner. Thermoline manufacture two cold plate models, which are designed to cool, freeze or maintain any particular sample below zero for short periods of time.

Both models feature a large cool plate area plus fast cool-down rates.

Overview

Thermoline's Australian Made Laboratory Cold Plate is an indispensable tool for various laboratory settings, including chemical, biological, and medical research. Designed to provide precise temperature control, this cold plate is ideal for cooling down samples before analysis or maintaining the temperature of sensitive equipment during experimentation.

Key Features:

  • Versatile Applications:

    • Sample Cooling: Efficiently cools samples before analysis.
    • Temperature Maintenance: Maintains the temperature of sensitive equipment during experiments.
    • Paraffin Wax Solidification: Reduces the time needed to chill paraffin blocks before cutting up at the microtome.
    • Extended Cooling: Capable of cooling samples to a low temperature for an extended period.

  • Temperature Control:

    • Digital PID Controller: Controls the plate at temperatures ranging from -10°C to -20°C, ensuring accurate and consistent cooling.
    • Efficient Refrigeration System: Provides reliable and efficient cooling performance.

  • Design Options:

    • TCP-2 Model: Has a smaller footprint to conserve bench space, making it ideal for laboratories with limited space.
    • TCP-3 Model: Features a stepped platform for easier loading at bench height.

Benefits:

  • Precise Temperature Control: Ensures accurate and consistent cooling, essential for maintaining the integrity of sensitive materials during experiments.
  • Enhanced Reliability: Provides stable and reproducible cooling conditions, enhancing the reliability of laboratory results.
  • User-Friendly Design: The stepped platform and compact footprint models cater to different laboratory needs, offering ease of use and space efficiency.

Applications:

  • Chemical Research: Ideal for cooling chemical samples to prevent reactions during analysis.
  • Biological Research: Maintains the temperature of biological samples and equipment, ensuring sample integrity.
  • Medical Research: Useful in various medical research applications requiring precise temperature control.

Thermoline's Laboratory Cold Plate is a crucial asset for laboratories requiring precise and reliable cooling solutions. Its versatile applications, precise temperature control, and user-friendly design make it an essential tool for enhancing the accuracy and reproducibility of experimental results.

What is a laboratory cold plate used for?
In laboratories, our cold plates are ideal for temperature control of assays, DNA ligations, cells and tissue, as well as insect paralysis testing and wax solidification. Notably, multiple Thermoline cold plate models have been used in published research articles, especially in pain, temperature preference and behaviour studies.
What is a laboratory cold plate?
Thermoline's unique range of cold plates has a flat aluminium work surface designed to cool, freeze, or maintain any particular sample below zero for short periods of time.
What variations of lab cold plate do Thermoline manufacture?
We manufacture two versions of the TCP cold plate: The stepped platform TCP-2 makes loading the plate easier at bench height, whilst the TCP-3 model has a smaller footprint allowing for more bench space.
What is the warranty on Thermoline products?
The standard warranty period on all Thermoline manufactured products, unless otherwise specifically stated, is 2 years.
