VWR Digital Heatblock 11 Drybath

This listing is for the VWR Digital Heatblock 11 Drybath. The unit is in full working condition and is ready for immediate use.

Core Features & Capabilities

Precision Temperature Control: Uses PID microprocessor control, typically offering stability and uniformity as precise as ±0.1 °C. Temperature range often spans from ambient +5 °C up to approximately 120 °C, with some models reaching 150 °C, depending on configuration.

Flexible, Modular Design: Supports interchangeable modular aluminum blocks, accommodating a wide range of vessel types—microtubes, PCR strips, centrifuge tubes, vials, and microplates. These blocks often include a thermometer well and are engineered for close tube-to-block contact to maximize heat transfer.

Digital Interface & User Safety: Features LED or touchpad controls, with separate displays for set-point and actual temperature, plus a timer function with audible alarm when the set time or temperature is reached. Equipped with safety enhancements such as a “Hot” warning light when the block temperature exceeds around 40 °C. Calibration mode often allows you to calibrate using an external temperature device (RTD probe).

Versatility & Applications: Ideal for a broad range of lab uses including enzyme reactions, immunoassays, DNA denaturation, ELISA, melting/boiling point determination, activation or incubation of cultures, protein denaturing, and other routine laboratory protocols.
