Cole-Parmer has launched a range of Binder high-temperature convection ovens that is said to be ideal for laboratory use.
All models have a temperature range from 5C above room temperature to 300C with an accuracy of +/- 0.3C at 70C.
The laboratory ovens are available in a range of chamber sizes between 20L and 240L, and customers can select from gravity convection oven models or forced convection oven models.
Gravity convection ovens are used for drying, sterilisation and precise warm-storage tasks, while forced convection ovens are primarily used in applications requiring rapid drying and sterilisation.
The Binder ovens feature an electronically controlled APTline preheating chamber, assuring temperature accuracy and reproducible results, 304 stainless steel inner chambers, two-point door lock, ISO class 2 (DIN 12880) safety thermostat with visual alarm and an electronic timer.
Ovens with chamber size up to 115L are stackable to conserve laboratory space.
For applications requiring data logging, an optional RS-422 interface is available for selection.
The forced convection ovens feature a PID controller, digital timer and high-performance fan creating homogenous temperature distribution and rapid dynamic response efficiency compared with gravity convection models.
Programmable ovens offer flexibility of programs with adjustable time intervals.
Also included are 'delayed on', 'delayed off' and 'temperature-dependent delayed off'.
Additional features include adjustable ramp functions, fan speed and elapsed time indicator and ventilation options.
