ALab™ Mini HCL100/Mini HC100/Mini H100 Mini Dry Bath
Product Detail
ALab™ Mini HCL100/Mini HC100/Mini H100 Mini Dry Bath — portable, lightweight mini dry baths with an LCD display, ±0.5°C control accuracy and 9 program memories; the Mini HCL100 has a hot lid.

The Mini Dry Bath is mini, lightweight and safe, with an LCD display, digital control over both temperature and time, a built-in user recalibration function that guarantees long term temperature accuracy and overheating protection. It is portable and can optionally be powered by an automobile power adapter. It is useful for rapid and uniform heating of biological samples in applications like preservation, denaturation of nucleic acids and proteins, and many other applications. The Mini HCL100 has a hot lid to prevent water condensing on the tube cap; the Mini HCL100 and Mini HC100 offer heating and cooling (setting range 0–100°C) and the Mini H100 heating (setting range 25–100°C). The photo is the brochure picture of the Mini Dry Bath; the specification table lists the three models side by side.
