About this item
The VWR® Cooling Thermal-Shake Touch is designed for applications that require consistent and precise results.
- Intuitive 4.3" LCD Touch Screen simultaneously displays all settings for complete control and monitoring
- Rapid temperature cycling and high-speed shaking ability result in increased throughput
- Internal memory stores five separate 5-step programs, and operational data can be exported via USB
- Interchangeable blocks are ideal for processing micro tubes, conical tubes, cryotubes, and microplates
- Now with Best-in-Class, Exclusive 5-Year Warranty
- Available with a NIST Traceable, ISO/IEC 17025 Accredited Calibration Certificate from Troemner
With heating, cooling, and shaking capabilities, the Cooling Thermal-Shake Touch uses interchangeable blocks to accommodate a wide variety of tubes and microplates
The low-profile design minimizes the unit’s footprint on the bench. The LCD touch screen enables faster input of temperature, speed, and time, which can all be viewed at once. Display features on-screen help topics with operational tips and touch screen is compatible with rubber gloves used in labs. USB port can transfer information to a flash drive for data logging, program storage, and software updates. Program control capabilities allow user programmable operation for automated use plus storage of five separate 5-step programs. Adjustable temperature ramp rate feature separately defines the heating and cooling rate in increments of 0.5 degrees/min. For maximum temperature accuracy, the single point calibration proceedure allows the user to calibrate at 6 distinctly defined temperatures. Though the unit can process an array of sample sizes in various VWR Blocks (sold separately), the Cooling Thermal-Shake Touch conveniently and effectively operates with non-VWR Blocks. The unit is equipped with a pulse mode feature for quick vortex applications.
The VWR® Cooling Thermal-Shake Touch has numerous innovative safety features that support consistent operation and ensure effective workplace safety. Constructed from a high quality heat- and chemical-resistant polymer, the unit’s housing remains cool to the touch throughout normal operating temperatures.A maximum temperature limiting function ensures the temperature will not exceed user defined limits, allowing user control of temperature sensitive samples. A hot-top warning light will illuminate when the temperature reaches 40 °C, and will remain lit until the temperature drops below 40 °C. In timed mode, an alarm will sound if the timer reaches zero, or if set point temperature is reached. Additionally, the heat function will automatically shut off if the unit recognizes an internal issue. The unit’s enhanced electronics, dual temperature sensors, and audible and visible alarms provide users with both safe and accurate results.
The easy-to-use, 4.3” color LCD touch screen allows users to save and visibly track progress through the live status bar for five user defined programs each with 5 individual steps. The unit’s enhanced electronics and dual temperature sensors provide accurate, dependable temperature settings across the operating range.
