JULABO GmbH is a global leader in high-precision liquid temperature control solutions, headquartered in Seelbach, Germany. Founded in 1967, the company has revolutionized the scientific community by developing the first fully electronic laboratory thermostat. JULABO’s mission is centered on providing "Superior Temperature Control," ensuring that researchers in the pharmaceutical, chemical, and biotechnology sectors have access to the most reliable and accurate thermal systems on the market. With a dedicated focus on innovation and "Made in Germany" quality, the brand has become synonymous with durability and high-performance engineering. Today, JULABO operates worldwide, providing cutting-edge technology—from basic water baths to sophisticated dynamic temperature control systems—that enables scientists to maintain absolute control over their critical thermal processes and experiments.
The JULABO range at LabFriend features professional heating and cooling solutions, headlined by their world-class refrigerated and heating circulators. These units are essential for precise temperature regulation in external systems like jacketed reactors or for tempering samples directly in the bath. For higher-capacity requirements, the brand provides advanced analytical measurement and testing support through their recirculating chillers and the high-performance PRESTO® dynamic temperature control systems. Their portfolio also encompasses essential general laboratory aids, featuring versatile immersion circulators and high-purity thermal fluids. To support demanding laboratory workflows, JULABO offers specialized shaking water baths and ultra-low temperature freezers for long-term sample storage. By choosing JULABO through LabFriend, you benefit from competitive pricing and fast shipping on premium instrumentation designed for maximum stability and long-term professional use.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the difference between a refrigerated circulator and a recirculating chiller?
Refrigerated circulators are designed for both internal bath applications and external temperature control with high precision. Recirculating chillers are primarily designed to remove heat from external equipment, often replacing tap water cooling for higher efficiency.
2. Why should I use JULABO Thermal fluids instead of water?
JULABO Thermal fluids are specially formulated to offer a much wider temperature range, better thermal conductivity, and chemical stability, while also protecting the internal components of your circulator from corrosion and scale buildup.
3. Can JULABO circulators be controlled via a PC?
Yes, most JULABO models feature RS232, USB, or Ethernet interfaces. Using the "EasyTemp" software, you can remotely control the units, visualize temperature data, and document your processes for quality assurance.
4. How do I maintain my JULABO refrigerated circulator?
Regular maintenance includes checking the liquid level, cleaning the condenser of the cooling unit to remove dust, and inspecting the bath fluid for contamination. This ensures consistent cooling performance and extends the life of the compressor.
