Dry block heaters - 2 blocks

Ohaus Dry block heaters - 2 blocks for Application-Based Model Selection

Designed for sample incubation, enzymatic reactions, microbiology workflows, and routine laboratory heating tasks, where the right choice often depends on differences in block count, temperature range, footprint, and throughput.

Multi-purpose Dry Block Heaters are ideal for applications that require temperature stability. The close tube-to-block contact enables maximum heat retention, resulting in efficient heating. High-wattage, constant-temp. analog models are an economical option, while digital models offer exceptional temp. uniformity & stability for applications that require repeatable results. Units hold optional interchangeable modular blocks with over 40 options.

• Customize your application with three templates. All models guarantee exceptional temperature uniformity with excellent thermal stability.

• Contamination prevention, for reliable and reproducible results. The heating block has a cover with a second heater that reduces condensation to maintain sample integrity.

• Guaranteed temperature accuracy. The digital models feature a unique single point calibration function that aligns the heating block display to a known external temperature reference for 3 temperature thresholds.

Product Q&A

What are dry block heaters used for?

Dry block heaters provide precise temperature control for incubation, enzymatic reactions, immunoassays, denaturation of nucleic acids, boiling/fusing points, and isothermal incubations. They are ideal when uniform heating and sample integrity are critical.

What is the difference between analog and digital models?

Analog models use external thermometers or setpoint devices and are simpler and economical. Digital models provide enhanced temperature uniformity, stability, and a unique single-point calibration for precise alignment with a reference temperature.

How is temperature stability ensured?

Close tube-to-block contact maximizes heat retention, while contamination prevention covers with secondary heaters minimize condensation. Digital models maintain consistent temperatures with high accuracy and reproducibility.

Can the blocks be customized for different applications?

Yes, both analog and digital units support interchangeable modular blocks with over 40 available options to suit different tube sizes and sample types.

What display and controls do the heaters have?

Digital models feature LED displays and touch control with audible alarms. Analog models have dual adjustment knobs with clear inscriptions for temperature control.

What safety or design features are included?

Painted steel housing with a locking stand door, audible alarms (digital models), and removable 3-wire power plug ensure safe operation and compliance with laboratory standards.
