This model focuses on compactness and excellent value for money. It is ideal as a reliable companion for rotary evaporators (e.g. IKA RV 3, RV 8, RV 10), for fermenters or for temperature control of small reaction vessels. Where large recirculating chillers take up too much space and are too expensive, the HRC 2 lite really comes into its own. Sustainable cooling with R290 The HRC 2 lite sets a clear example of sustainability. It uses natural R290 (propane) as its refrigerant. This refrigerant is not only extremely energy-efficient, but also future-proof and environmentally friendly (very low global warming potential, GWP). With a cooling capacity of 400 watts (at 20 °C) and an operating temperature range of –10 °C to +100 °C, the unit covers all standard applications in basic research and process chemistry. High-performance discharge and suction pump A common problem with compact chillers is an underpowered pump that cannot overcome the resistance in glassware (e.g. narrow cooling coils). This is not the case with the HRC 2 lite: IKA has fitted a powerful discharge and suction pump made from high-quality PEEK. With a flow rate of 18 litres per minute and a pump pressure of 0.35 bar, it ensures a turbulent flow and thus optimum heat exchange in the connected apparatus. At the same time, the integrated level indicator allows the liquid level in the 2.5-litre reservoir to be monitored at all times. Easy maintenance and operation In everyday laboratory work, speed is often of the essence. The HRC 2 lite impresses with its maintenance-friendly design. The air filter (mesh filter), which protects the unit from dust and lint, is easily accessible at the front and can be removed for cleaning without the need for tools. Draining the temperature-controlled fluid is also a clean and simple process thanks to an easily accessible drain valve. The intuitive control menu allows the target temperature to be set quickly, without the need to pore over thick manuals. Safety and connectivity To ensure safe operation, the unit continuously monitors the liquid level and temperature. It complies with Safety Class II (FL) in accordance with DIN 12876. For modern laboratories (“Lab 4.0”), the HRC 2 lite comes with USB and RS 232 interfaces as standard.

IKA C-MAG HP 4, heating plate, ceramic (100 x 100 mm), 250 W, 0003581600
Thermodynamic infrared transmission and amorphous ceramic matrix The application of extreme thermal gradients to reaction vessels requires material architectures that are thermophysically completely resistant to high temperature differentials and corrosion. The IKA C-MAG HP 4 operates as a pure laboratory hotplate (without electromagnetic stirring) and utilises a monolithic base plate (100 x 100 mm) made of glass-hard, amorphous industrial ceramic. This microstructured silicate plate is physically inert to highly corrosive acids, halogens and alkalis, and acts as a highly efficient infrared emitter. With a heating power of 250 watts, the system raises the surface temperature to up to 500 °C. The thermal energy is not primarily transferred via conductive heat transfer, but is coupled deep into the glass matrix of the reaction vessel through an extremely high proportion of infrared radiation. This drastically minimises thermodynamic latencies during the heating of micro- and macro-volumes. Metrological cybernetics and isochoric temperature control An integrated PID microprocessor controls the thermal vectors. Metrological monitoring is carried out via a high-resolution LCD display, which accurately shows the digital setpoint temperature. The control loop modulates the electrical heating power of the 250 W resistance heater in real time and regulates the energy supply proactively to prevent thermal overshoot of the ceramic plate. This architecture guarantees a reproducible thermal environment for the distillation or digestion process. (Note on system limitations: As a dedicated HP model, this system does not have a DIN interface for external contact thermometers; the control system relates exclusively to the plate temperature). System stability and thermodynamic hardware safety The continuous operation at 500 °C requires uncompromising insulation of the electronic chassis. The housing architecture of the C-MAG series thermally isolates the hot ceramic top from the sensitive circuit boards in the base unit. Occupational health and safety is ensured by an independent, hardware-based safety circuit which physically cuts off the power supply when the plate reaches a limit temperature of exactly 550 °C. In addition, the visual ‘Hot Top’ indicator warns of latent infrared residual heat from the ceramic matrix (at temperatures > 50 °C), even when the system has already been disconnected from the mains supply. This prevents irreversible thermal injuries (burns) to the user. Technical details Thermodynamics & Heating Technology Heating power: 250 W Heating temperature range: 50 to 500 °C Base material: Amorphous industrial ceramic (monolithic) Heating rate (1 L H₂O in H 1500): 2.5 K/min Setting and display resolution: Digital via LCD (10 K increments) Metrology & Control Engineering Temperature display: LCD (liquid crystal display) Control: Microprocessor-controlled PID architecture External sensor interface: Not available (heating plate temperature control only) Stirring function (kinetics): Not available (hotplate-only model) Materials Science & Dimensions Footprint dimensions: 100 x 100 mm System dimensions (W x H x D): 150 x 105 x 260 mm Unit weight: 3.0 kg Housing material: Chemical-resistant plastic / metal base Safety & Environmental Conditions Hardware safety circuit (heating plate): Fixed at 550 °C Residual heat indicator: Visual ‘Hot Top’ indicator (> 50 °C) Permissible ambient temperature range: 5 – 40 °C Permissible relative humidity: max. 80 % Protection class (in accordance with DIN EN 60529): IP 21 Electrical & Infrastructure Voltage / Frequency: 230 V / 50/60 Hz Power consumption: 255 W Contents of delivery 1 x IKA C-MAG HP 4 hotplate 1 x power cable for IT equipment Important note: The HP series is a purely thermodynamic unit. The system has no electromagnetic drive (no stirring motor) and no connection for external medium temperature sensors (such as the ETS-D5). If you require isochoric temperature control directly within the fluid or mixing, it is essential that you purchase the IKA C-MAG HS series (Heating & Stirring). Custom requirements & accessories The C-MAG HP 4 is the ideal heat source for static digestion or sand baths. To optimise the thermophysical transfer in asymmetrical flasks (such as round-bottom flasks) and prevent infrared radiation losses to the laboratory atmosphere, we recommend the use of specific aluminium heating blocks or traditional laboratory sand baths, which can be placed directly on the 100 x 100 mm ceramic matrix. Please feel free to contact our procurement service at any time to discuss the configuration of your thermodynamic setup.

Memmert WTB15 water bath, 17 litres, touchscreen, central drain
A space-saving solution for the laboratory: the Memmert WTB15 water bath The Memmert WTB15 water bath (MPN WTB15) is the ideal solution for laboratories that require greater capacity but do not wish to compromise on ergonomics and hygiene. As part of the latest generation of Memmert products, it combines a usable volume of 17.1 litres with innovative touchscreen technology and a design concept that minimises cleaning times and maximises process reliability. It is ideally suited to temperature control tasks in the range from +5 °C above room temperature up to +100 °C, whether in microbiology, food chemistry or industrial materials testing. Maximum hygiene thanks to a deep-drawn stainless steel bath The standout feature of the WTB15 is its high-quality stainless steel inner bath (grade 1.4301). Memmert has deliberately avoided any obstructive internal fittings: No heating elements inside the chamber: the heating elements and sensors are situated on the outside of the bath, where they are protected. Softline design: The corners are deep-drawn with large radii. There are no sharp edges or recesses where dirt, limescale or biofilms can accumulate. Central drain: The tank base is designed to slope towards the central lowest point. This ensures complete, residue-free drainage via the standard drain tap, without the need to laboriously tilt the unit. Intuitive operation: Touchscreen with CustomView The WTB15 is controlled via a modern 3.5-inch touchscreen graphic display. The user interface is clearly structured, hygienically protected behind glass and can be operated precisely even whilst wearing laboratory gloves. The innovative CustomView function puts you in control: using drag-and-drop, you decide which parameters (e.g. current temperature, timer, alarm limits) should be displayed large and prominently on the screen. This allows the water bath to adapt to your workflow, and ensures that important information remains legible even from a distance. Precise temperature control and safety Thanks to its large, external heating element, the WTB15 achieves excellent temperature uniformity through natural convection – without any turbulence or heat input from a circulation pump. This is particularly beneficial for sensitive samples. A multi-stage safety system protects users and samples: a dry-run protection feature switches off the heating element if the liquid level falls below the minimum, whilst individually adjustable alarm limits warn of overheating. Generous space and robust housing With its internal dimensions, the WTB15 offers enough space for several test tube racks side by side or larger vessels such as Erlenmeyer flasks. The outer housing is made of scratch-resistant textured stainless steel, which remains visually appealing even in the harsh conditions of everyday laboratory use and is corrosion-resistant. Thanks to the modular range of accessories (available separately), such as shakers or various lid options (gabled roof/flat lid), the WTB15 can be flexibly adapted to changing tasks. Technical data Model: WTB15 Volume: 17.1 litres Interior: Deep-drawn stainless steel tray (grade 1.4301), without fittings Internal dimensions (L x W x H): 482 x 277 x 150 mm Housing dimensions (L x W x H): 749 x 349 x 375 mm (textured stainless steel) Minimum fill level: 20 mm Max. fill level: 114 mm Temperature range: +5 °C above room temperature to +100 °C Setting accuracy: 0.1 °C Operation: 3.5" touchscreen (CustomView) Drain: Central drain with standard drain tap Heating: Corrosion-protected large-surface heating (external) Voltage: 230 V, 50/60 Hz Weight: approx. 8 kg (net) Contents 1 x Memmert WTB15 water bath 1 x mains cable 1 x calibration certificate 1 x user manual (Note: The lid and insert racks are accessories and must be ordered separately!)

IKA HB digital heating bath, 4 litres, water/oil, 180 °C, 0020016334
Thermodynamic heat transfer and dual matrix compatibility In preparative distillation and thermal sample preparation, the precise and loss-free transfer of thermal energy into reaction vessels is essential. The IKA HB digital is designed as a universal thermodynamic heating bath that allows the physical application of two fundamentally different heat transfer media: water and thermal silicone oils. The monolithic heating bath is manufactured from high-alloy, corrosion-resistant stainless steel (AISI 304). A ring heating element integrated into the base transfers thermal energy through the stainless steel matrix directly into the liquid medium with a massive heating power of 1350 watts. Controlled by a microprocessor-based control system, the system heats aqueous media to up to 100 °C and, thanks to the seamless switch to high-boiling-point silicone oils, enables a maximum operating temperature of 180 °C – a condition that is physically essential for the distillation of low-volatility solvents under high vacuum. Flow mechanics of the piston geometry and dead volume minimisation The architectural geometry of the 4-litre volume is precisely calibrated, from a process engineering perspective, to meet the fluid dynamics requirements of rotary evaporators (such as the IKA RV series). The elliptical tank shape, optimised for low-point performance, conforms to the contour of rotating evaporator flasks (up to 3 litres in volume). This design-driven minimisation of thermodynamic dead volume (less unused fluid in the peripheral areas) drastically reduces the specific heat capacity of the bath that needs to be utilised. This results in significantly steeper heating rates (isochoric heat flux) and faster thermal equilibrium of the system, which massively reduces energy consumption during continuous operation. System cybernetics and mechanical health and safety The use of thermal oils at 180 °C poses enormous occupational health risks (thermal injuries). The HB digital is equipped with a hardware-based, continuously adjustable safety circuit. This independent sensor monitors the maximum temperature and, should it be exceeded, immediately cuts off the power supply via the hardware (preventing the oils from reaching their flash point). The cybernetic LCD interface features an electronic lock function (key lock), which physically prevents accidental manipulation of the target temperature caused by swiping movements or vibrations during the distillation process. To safely remove the thermodynamically saturated, hot fluids after the batch process, the chassis is fitted with two thermally decoupled, ergonomic carrying handles that enable safe transport without contact with walls. Technical details Thermodynamics & Heating Technology Heating power / heat transfer: 1350 W Operating temperature range: Room temperature to 180 °C Dual compatibility: Approved for demineralised water and thermal silicone oils Heating bath material: Corrosion-resistant stainless steel (grade 1.4301 / AISI 304) Heating element design: Integrated ring heater in the bottom of the bath Metrology & Control Technology Control: Microprocessor control (PID) Setting and display resolution: 1 K User interface: High-contrast LCD display for setpoint and actual values Control accuracy: ± 1 K (depending on the medium) Geometry & Dimensions Total volume of the inner chamber: 4.0 litres Optimised flask size (rotary evaporator): standard up to 1 litre (maximum 3 litres) System dimensions (W x H x D): 330 x 190 x 325 mm Weight (unloaded): 3.0 kg Safety & Environmental Conditions Independent safety circuit: Continuously adjustable from 50 to 210 °C Operational safety: Integrated lock function (key lock) Tamper protection: Thermally decoupled carrying handles in the chassis Permissible ambient temperature range: 5 – 40 °C Permissible relative humidity: max. 80% Protection class (to DIN EN 60529): IP 21 Electrical & Connectivity Voltage / Frequency: 200 – 240 V / 50/60 Hz Power consumption: max. 1350 W Contents of delivery 1 x IKA HB digital heating bath 1 x IT equipment mains cable (Schuko) (Important note: Thermal fluids, silicone oils or protective polycarbonate covers are not included!) Individual requirements & accessories The HB digital is the core thermodynamic module for rotary evaporator systems. If you are distilling solvents with high boiling points, water is physically insufficient as a heat transfer medium (limited to a maximum of 100 °C). In this case, you must obtain temperature-stable IKA thermal fluid (silicone oil) with a flash point well above your operating temperature. To minimise water evaporation losses during long-term distillations and to increase energy efficiency, we recommend using the appropriate IKA protective hood (HB 10.1). Please contact our procurement service at any time for thermodynamically correct calculations of cooling and heating circuits.

IKA RC 2 basic, recirculating cooler, 400 W cooling capacity, -20 °C, 0004171000
Thermodynamic compression refrigeration machine and isochoric heat sink The condensation of solvent vapours in rotary evaporators or temperature control in double-walled reactors requires a constant, thermodynamically stable heat sink to dissipate the exothermic heat generated. The IKA RC 2 basic operates as a high-performance recirculating chiller with a microprocessor-controlled compression refrigeration unit. At an ambient temperature of 20 °C, the system generates a substantial cooling capacity of 400 watts and cools the circulating temperature-control medium down to -20 °C. Unlike unregulated mains water circuits, the RC 2 basic completely eliminates the hydrological fluctuations typical of domestic water networks. The cybernetic PID control algorithm modulates the cooling system in real time and guarantees metrological temperature stability of ± 0.1 K, which completely stabilises the vapour pressure of the condensing fluids in the vacuum setup. Fluid mechanics and PEEK pressure-suction kinematics The hydrodynamic peripherals of the RC 2 basic are designed for maximum process flexibility. At the heart of the fluidics is a generously dimensioned pressure and suction pump made from highly chemically resistant polyetheretherketone (PEEK). This pump generates a maximum flow rate of 15 litres per minute and a delivery pressure of 0.3 bar. The key physical function of this pressure-suction principle is the ability not only to control the temperature of closed systems (such as the cooling coils of rotary evaporators), but also to actively draw the medium back from external open baths. This physically prevents hydrodynamic overflow in asymmetrical peripheral systems. The internal, highly insulated stainless steel storage tank (up to 4.0 litres in volume) acts as a thermal buffer to smooth out kinetic load fluctuations from the external consumer. System stability and energy efficiency The architectural integration of the RC 2 basic into the laboratory infrastructure is designed for minimal space requirements and maximum continuous load. The heat exchangers (microchannel condensers) are thermodynamically optimised to minimise energy consumption. An easily accessible, mechanical stainless-steel mesh filter protects the condenser from particulate blockages (dust) originating from the laboratory environment, thereby maintaining thermodynamic efficiency in the long term. Parameter control is carried out via a high-contrast LED display, which shows the current temperature readings in real time. Technical Details Thermodynamics & Refrigeration Technology Operating temperature range: -20 °C to room temperature Cooling capacity (at 20 °C): 400 W Cooling capacity (at 0 °C): 350 W Cooling capacity (at -20 °C): 140 W Refrigeration technology: Compression refrigeration machine Refrigerant: R134a (charge defined metrologically) Metrology & control technology Temperature controller: PID microprocessor Temperature stability (in accordance with DIN 12876): ± 0.1 K Temperature display: Digital LED display Setting and display resolution: 0.1 K Fluid Mechanics & Pump Kinematics Pump principle: Pressure and suction pump Pump material (in contact with the fluid): PEEK (polyetheretherketone) Max. flow rate (pressure side): 15 l/min Max. discharge pressure: 0.3 bar Max. suction head: 0.2 bar Pump connections (inlet/outlet): M16x1 external thread System infrastructure & dimensions Bath volume (minimum / maximum): 1.4 litres / 4.0 litres Material of the inner chamber / bath: Stainless steel System dimensions (W x H x D): 220 x 475 x 525 mm Machine weight: approx. 29.5 kg Level indicator: Visual indicator on the front of the housing Safety & environmental conditions Safety feature: Visual and audible warning signals at critical fill level Permissible ambient temperature range: 5 – 32 °C Permissible relative humidity: max. 80 % Protection class (to DIN EN 60529): IP 21 Electrical & Connectivity Voltage / Frequency: 230 V / 50/60 Hz Power consumption: max. 300 W (depending on the thermal load) Data interfaces: USB and RS 232 (for labworldsoft®integration) Contents of delivery 1 x IKA RC 2 basic recirculating chiller 2 x olive fittings (hose connections for DN 8) 1 x power cable for cooling units 1 x USB cable (A-B) Important note: Thermally insulated pump hoses (to prevent thermodynamic losses and condensation), an external temperature-control medium and heat transfer oils are essential for correct operation and are not included in the scope of delivery. Customised requirements & accessories The RC 2 basic generates significant thermal gradients. To transfer this cooling capacity to the external reactor or rotary evaporator without loss, the use of uninsulated silicone hoses is thermodynamically prohibited (significant loss of cooling capacity and condensation on the outer surface). You must obtain highly insulated IKA temperature-control hoses (M16x1). To prevent algae growth or corrosion within the closed PEEK/stainless steel system, we recommend using specific heat transfer fluids (such as IKA H.F.) instead of pure demineralised water. Please contact our procurement service at any time for the fluid dynamics- and thermodynamics-correct configuration of your cooling circuit.

LAUDA Loop L 100 Thermoelectric Circulating Bath, +80 °C, L000027
LAUDA Loop L 100: A revolution in compact temperature control The LAUDA Loop L 100 (MPN L000027) marks a technological shift in the laboratory. Where loud, heavy compressor-based coolers once stood, this thermoelectric circulation thermostat now ensures precise temperatures. The unit is based on Peltier technology. This means it operates entirely without refrigerant or a compressor. For you as a user, this means: less noise, fewer vibrations, less maintenance and a drastic reduction in your environmental footprint. The Loop L 100 is specially designed for external temperature control applications requiring constant temperatures between +4 °C and +80 °C. Peltier technology: cooling and heating using electricity At the heart of the LAUDA Loop L 100 is the Peltier element. When an electrical voltage is applied, heat is transferred from one side to the other. This technology offers key advantages over conventional systems: Refrigerant-free: As no F-gases (fluorinated greenhouse gases) are used, the unit is not subject to strict environmental regulations or leak tests. It operates in a completely climate-friendly manner. Low vibration: As there is no compressor in operation, there is virtually no mechanical vibration. This makes the Loop L 100 the ideal choice for vibration-sensitive applications such as microscopy or optical measurement techniques. Compact design: The design is extremely space-saving. With a width of just 17.5 cm, the unit fits on any laboratory bench, no matter how full it is. Dual function: The system can both cool and heat. Simply switching the polarity is enough for the Loop to switch seamlessly between modes to maintain the target temperature precisely. Main area of application: External applications The LAUDA Loop L 100 is a circulation thermostat only. It does not have an open bath into which samples are immersed, but rather a small internal reservoir. Its strength lies in supplying external devices. Typical areas of application include: Refractometers & polarimetres: Here, a constant temperature (often 20 °C or 25 °C) is crucial for accurate measurement results. Electrophoresis: Dissipation of the heat generated during the process to protect the gels from overheating. Micro-reactors: Temperature control of chemical syntheses on a millilitre scale. Sample preparation: Maintaining a constant temperature for cuvette holders in spectroscopy. Performance and efficiency Despite its small size, the Loop L 100 delivers impressive performance figures. It offers a cooling capacity of up to 120 watts (at 20 °C), which is more than sufficient for most small laboratory instruments. The pump capacity, with a flow rate of 2.6 l/min and a pressure of 0.8 bar, is optimally designed to deliver fluid even through narrower tubing or heat exchangers. A key feature is its energy efficiency: the fan adjusts its speed according to the load. In partial-load operation, the unit is therefore whisper-quiet and consumes only a minimal amount of electricity. Thanks to the wide-range mains adaptor (100–240 V), the Loop L 100 can be used worldwide without the need to switch settings – ideal for research groups operating internationally. Ease of use: simplicity is key Operation of the LAUDA Loop L 100 is kept to the essentials. Just three buttons are needed to make all the settings. OLED display: The display is bright, high-contrast and exceptionally easy to read, even from oblique angles. It shows the actual and setpoint values as well as the operating status. Plug & Play: Quick-connect couplings (CPC connectors) on the inlet and outlet allow the hoses to be connected in a matter of seconds without spilling a drop. A hose set is often already prepared, so you can get started straight away. Interface: An RS 232 interface is integrated as standard to integrate the device into automated laboratory environments or to document process data. Maintenance and safety Where there is no refrigerant, none can escape. And where there is no compressor oil, none needs to be changed. The Loop L 100 is virtually maintenance-free. Only the air filter on the front should be cleared of dust from time to time – this can be done without tools thanks to a magnetic mount. Safety is ensured by over-temperature protection and low-level protection. As the fill volume is very small (only approx. 0.3 litres), handling the temperature-control fluid is also safe and cost-effective. With the LAUDA Loop L 100, you are choosing the future of laboratory temperature control: green, quiet, compact and precise.

IKA IB R 20 eco plastic bath for thermostats, polycarbonate, 20 litres, 0020004383
The IKA IB R 20 eco plastic bath is a structurally stable, high-capacity, materials-science-based system solution for the professional temperature control of larger sample volumes in clinical, chemical and biological laboratory environments. Specially developed as a perfectly matched system component for IKA immersion thermostats (such as the universal ICC or Bridge series), this high-quality temperature-controlled vessel, with a capacity of 20 litres, provides the ideal basis for safe and reproducible water bath applications on a larger scale. For precise thermodynamic processes in everyday laboratory work, structural durability and excellent thermal insulation are the primary criteria for ensuring constant temperature control throughout long-term test series in a way that is gentle on materials and reliable for the process. Material robustness and complete process visibility The material design of the IB R 20 eco is based on a high-quality, transparent polycarbonate (PC). This specialised plastic is characterised by outstanding impact strength, mechanical resilience and excellent dimensional stability at temperatures of up to 100 degrees Celsius. The crystal-clear optical properties of the bath material offer the user a decisive advantage in day-to-day laboratory use: they allow continuous and unrestricted visual monitoring of all sample vessels (such as test tubes, flasks or reactors) within the bath at any stage of the temperature control process, without the need to disrupt the thermal equilibrium by opening a lid. Generous capacity and optimised thermodynamics From a thermodynamic perspective, the wall thicknesses and geometry of the bath have been optimised to minimise heat loss to the surroundings, even with a large volume of 20 litres. This energy efficiency significantly reduces the load on the attached thermostat and helps to lower the overall carbon footprint of laboratory operations whilst minimising material consumption. To ensure safe fluid management and optimal ergonomic handling, the plastic bath features integrated, ergonomically shaped carrying handles on the front sides. These enable laboratory staff to move, transport or empty the bath in complete safety, even when it is filled with warm temperature-controlled medium. Seamless system integration and rigorous GLP compliance The bath’s structural design guarantees a perfect fit when installing the heating components. The interaction with the original IKA bath bridges ensures that the suspended thermostat is fixed in place absolutely wobble-free and securely. This reliably prevents uncontrolled vibrations or the heating unit from slipping during continuous operation. The easy-to-clean, non-porous surface of the polycarbonate also prevents the build-up of germs or algae residues, enabling the IB R 20 eco to meet the highest standards for clean workplaces in accordance with stringent GLP guidelines.

Specially developed as a perfectly matched system component for IKA immersion thermostats (such as the universal ICC series), this high-quality temperature-controlled vessel provides the ideal basis for safe and reproducible water bath applications. For precise thermodynamic processes in day-to-day laboratory work, structural durability and excellent thermal insulation are the primary criteria for ensuring constant temperature control throughout long-term test series in a way that is gentle on the material and reliable for the process. Excellence in materials science and visual process control The material design of the IB 8 eco is based on a high-quality, transparent polycarbonate (PC). This specialised plastic is characterised by outstanding impact resistance, mechanical resilience and excellent dimensional stability at temperatures of up to 100 degrees Celsius. The crystal-clear optical properties of the bath material offer the user a decisive advantage in day-to-day laboratory use: they allow continuous and unrestricted visual monitoring of the sample vessels (such as test tubes or Erlenmeyer flasks) within the bath at any stage of the temperature control process, without the thermal equilibrium having to be disrupted by opening a lid. Thermodynamic efficiency and ergonomic design From a thermodynamic perspective, the wall thicknesses and geometry of the bath have been optimised to minimise heat loss to the surroundings. This energy efficiency significantly reduces the load on the attached thermostat and helps to lower the overall carbon footprint of laboratory operations whilst minimising material consumption. To ensure safe fluid management and optimal ergonomic handling, the plastic bath features integrated, ergonomically shaped carrying handles on the front sides. These enable laboratory staff to move, transport or empty the bath in complete safety, even when it is filled with warm temperature-control medium. Seamless system integration and GLP compliance The bath’s structural design guarantees a perfect fit when installing the heating components. The interaction with the original IKA bath bridges ensures that the suspended thermostat is fixed in place absolutely wobble-free and securely. This reliably prevents uncontrolled vibrations or the heating unit from slipping during continuous operation. The easy-to-clean, non-porous surface of the polycarbonate also prevents the build-up of germs or algae residues, meaning that the IB 8 eco meets the highest standards for clean workplaces in accordance with stringent GLP guidelines.
