Refrigerated Circulated Water Baths TWBRC

Thermoline's refrigerated baths are ideal for applications where low liquid temperatures are required. Essentially a combination of a laboratory water bath and a refrigeration unit, the refrigerated water bath allows for both heating and cooling of the water in the bath. 

The bath tanks are constructed from stainless steel and are insulated to minimise temperature loss.

Overview

Both the 12L and 24L refrigerated water baths feature a digital display that indicates the set temperature and actual liquid temperature, a bath drain valve for easy drainage, and a pump-out facility to circulate water to an external vessel. The built-in microprocessor control ensures accurate temperature stability and allows for easy temperature adjustments. The tank is constructed from stainless steel and insulated to minimise temperature loss. The baths operate with a refrigeration cooling system continuously, and heat and temperature control are provided by the TU3 unistat.

Key Features

  • Digital Display: Indicates both the set temperature and the actual liquid temperature for precise monitoring.
  • Bath Drain Valve: Allows for easy and efficient drainage of the bath.
  • Pump-Out Facility: Enables circulation of water to an external vessel, enhancing versatility.
  • Microprocessor Control: Ensures accurate temperature stability and easy adjustments.
  • Stainless Steel Tank: Provides durability and insulation to minimise temperature loss.
  • Continuous Refrigeration Cooling: Operates continuously to maintain the desired temperature.

Common Uses

Refrigerated laboratory water baths have a wide range of applications in various fields, including:

  • Biomedicine: Used for precise temperature control in experiments involving biological samples.
  • Life Sciences: Essential for applications in biochemistry, microbiology, and molecular biology.
  • Industry: Applied in cooling electrical components and light laboratory equipment.

Benefits

  1. Extended Temperature Range: Refrigerated water baths allow for a wider range of temperature control, which is essential for applications requiring below ambient room temperature settings.
  2. Precise Temperature Stability: The built-in microprocessor control ensures accurate and stable temperature settings, crucial for reproducible scientific results.
  3. Versatility and Efficiency: The ability to circulate water to an external vessel and the continuous refrigeration system make these water baths highly versatile and efficient for various laboratory and industrial applications.

Thermoline refrigerated water baths are essential tools in scientific and research applications, providing reliable temperature control and stability for a wide range of uses.

How do I control temperatures at or below ambient?
To achieve temperatures at or below ambient will require refrigeration of the bath. Thermoline has a wide range of refrigerated water baths to suit your needs. The TU3 is a heat-only device that controls temperatures +5°C above ambient temperature.
What are laboratory water baths used for?

Laboratory water baths are a type of laboratory equipment that are used for a variety of applications, including:

  1. Warming and thawing samples: Water baths can be used to quickly and uniformly warm or thaw samples, such as reagents or frozen biological specimens, to a specific temperature.

  2. Incubating and culturing samples: Water baths can be used to incubate samples at a controlled temperature for a specified period. This is commonly used in microbiology and molecular biology applications, such as growing bacterial cultures, conducting enzyme assays, and hybridisation.

  3. Heating and maintaining consistent temperature for reactions: Water baths can be used for heating and maintaining a constant temperature for chemical and biochemical reactions, such as PCR amplification, DNA melting, and protein denaturation.

  4. Melting point determination: Water baths can be used for determining the melting point of solid samples, such as organic compounds.

What are different types of water bath?

Some of the water baths that Thermoline supplies include:

  1. General-purpose uncircuated water baths: These are basic water baths that are suitable for a variety of laboratory applications, including warming samples and incubating cultures.

  2. Circulating water baths: These water baths have a built-in pump or external TU3 heater circulator that circulates the water to maintain a constant temperature throughout the bath. They are commonly used in applications that require precise temperature control, such as PCR amplification and protein denaturation.

  3. Shaking water baths: These water baths have a shaking platform that allows for agitation of samples during incubation. They are commonly used in applications that require mixing, such as bacterial culture growth and hybridisation.
