The Laboratory Heating Thermostats category supports laboratories that need to heat, cool, incubate, freeze or stabilise samples and processes at defined temperatures. The range spans routine bench requirements and more specialised applications where material choice, control and repeatability become especially important.
Temperature uniformity, recovery and control stability influence reaction rates, storage integrity and the reproducibility of many laboratory methods. This is why laboratories should assess uniformity and stability, pump flow or air circulation, controller and logging options, and working temperature range before choosing a product, rather than relying only on capacity, appearance or headline specifications.
A complete temperature-control setup matches the load and vessel to the working range, heating or cooling capacity, circulation, monitoring and safety requirements. Looking at the full sequence makes it easier to identify the correct accessories and consumables before the equipment is put into service in research, biotechnology, pharmaceutical, food, materials and industrial laboratories. As part of the Laboratory Heating and Cooling Equipment range, these products can be selected with the equipment and consumables used before and after this stage.
Our Laboratory Heating Thermostats Range
Our collection covers purpose of the grant raised shelves, the ika icc eco and pro models, choose a polycarbonate tank like the polyscience 28l, and use ika immersion circulators with other bath tanks, giving laboratories practical choices for routine work and more specialised applications.
Purpose of the Grant Raised Shelves
Raised shelves, such as the S26 model, are used within a bath to lift samples off the bottom, ensuring better fluid circulation around the vessels and preventing direct contact with heating elements. The most suitable format depends on uniformity and stability, pump flow or air circulation, and controller and logging options. Laboratories should also confirm how the product will be prepared, used, cleaned or disposed of between runs. Within the wider method, these products help laboratories hold samples and processes within the conditions required for repeatable work and dependable storage. They should be reviewed together with associated consumables, accessories and cleaning requirements.
The IKA ICC Eco and Pro models
The IKA ICC 150 Lite Pro models generally offer a higher maximum temperature (up to 150°C) and more advanced circulation features compared to the standard 100 Lite Eco models. Selection should take account of pump flow or air circulation, controller and logging options, and working temperature range. It is also worth checking cleaning, replacement and storage requirements before the item becomes part of a routine procedure. Within the wider method, these products help laboratories hold samples and processes within the conditions required for repeatable work and dependable storage. They should be reviewed together with associated consumables, accessories and cleaning requirements.
Choose a polycarbonate tank like the PolyScience 28L
Polycarbonate tanks are transparent, allowing for full visual monitoring of your samples, and are resistant to temperatures up to approximately 100°C, making them ideal for aqueous applications. For routine and specialised work, assess controller and logging options, working temperature range, and heating or cooling capacity. Matching these points early helps avoid adapters, consumables or operating limitations being discovered after purchase. Used correctly, this part of the range helps laboratories hold samples and processes within the conditions required for repeatable work and dependable storage. The result is a setup that is easier to train, document and maintain.
Use IKA immersion circulators with other bath tanks
IKA ICC immersion circulators are designed with universal clamps or bridges, allowing them to be mounted on various bath vessels, provided they meet safety and volume requirements. For routine and specialised work, assess working temperature range, heating or cooling capacity, and chamber or bath volume. Matching these points early helps avoid adapters, consumables or operating limitations being discovered after purchase. In practice, this supports efforts to hold samples and processes within the conditions required for repeatable work and dependable storage. It also gives staff a clearer and more repeatable procedure when multiple users or shifts share the same equipment.
