About This Product
Laboratories use this cabinet to dry washed glassware and paper chromatograms, and to hold agar-based media at a molten temperature before pouring. Sheathed heating elements in the base warm the cabinet, while the thermostat holds the set temperature. The glass doors let staff see the contents without opening them. It can be mounted on a shelf or a bench.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. How hot does the cabinet get? The thermostat allows a maximum of 50°C above ambient temperature, which suits drying and keeping media molten rather than high-temperature work.
