The HB120-S, HB120-SC and HB60-S are low profile, space saving dry baths with digital control and display of time and temperature, a timer and overheating protection. The HB120-S and HB120-SC reach room temp+5 to 120°C (setting range 15–120°C) with ±0.5°C uniformity at 37°C and are rated 170 W; the HB120-SC has a temperature calibration function inbuilt for users. The HB60-S works at five discrete temperature levels (25, 30, 37, 45 and 60°C), with ±0.3°C uniformity at 37°C, is rated 160 W and carries a 5mL×30+10mL×8 dual purpose heating block. The photo shows the HB120-S/SC; the specification table lists the models side by side.

Where it fits

The dry bath series is small in footprint, with accurate and uniform temperature control, overheating protection and a lid for heat preservation. Choose HB120-S / HB120-SC for a continuous setting range of 15–120°C (HB120-SC adds the user temperature calibration function) or HB60-S for the five fixed levels 25, 30, 37, 45 and 60°C. The Heating blocks table lists the capacities and catalogue numbers printed for HB120-S/HB120-SC, in a standard and a thin version; HB60-S has its own 5mL×30+10mL×8 dual purpose heating block.

Frequently asked questions

Which models are on this page?

HB120-S, HB120-SC and HB60-S. The specification table lists an HB120-S / SC column and an HB60-S column; select the model in the order menu.

What is the difference between HB120-S and HB120-SC?

Both share one specification column. The HB120-SC has a temperature calibration function inbuilt for users.

What are the temperature range and the setting range?

HB120-S/SC: temperature range room temp+5 to 120°C, setting range 15–120°C. HB60-S: temperature range room temp+5 to 60°C, 5 gears at 25, 30, 37, 45 and 60°C. The two are listed as separate rows.

What accuracy and uniformity are published?

Temperature control accuracy ±0.5°C for both columns. Temperature uniformity at 37°C: ±0.5°C (HB120-S/SC) and ±0.3°C (HB60-S); this value is the uniformity at 37°C, not the control accuracy.

Which heating blocks are listed?
