• Stainless steel tank – high grade seel with durable polished finish
• Clean, painted steel case – maximum chemical and abrasion resistance
• User settable, over-temperature sample protection - protects samples from over-heating
• Fixed thermal cut-out – protects the user if the bath is accidentally run without water or in the very unlikely event of failure of control system
• Raised feet – allow lifting whilst holding base of tank
• Grant non-drip polycarbonate lid, included as standard – improves performance, limits evaporation and conserves energy
• Simple dial temperature setting – easy to use and provides quick visual indication of temperature and ability to re-set dial position
• Polycarbonate perforated base tray, included as standard – promotes heat convection and optimal temperature uniformity, also allows any container to be placed directly in bath
• Heater mat and sensor bonded to the underside of the tank – optimises temperature uniformity and workspace
• Removable dial – enables calibration

Accessory options for JB Aqua 18

Lids and polypropylene spheres

AQL26 Polycarbonate transparent lid (blue) – directs condensation away from immersed vessels, avoids contamination, reduces evaporation and saves energy

LF28 Flat lids (6 ring sets)* - with ring sets of variable hole diameter to accommodate tall vessels whilst reducing evaporation

PS20 polypropylene spheres* – Useful alternative to a lid, minimises evaporation and heat loss whilst allowing easy access to vessels in the bath; particularly useful for tall vessels

*should be used above 60 ^oC

Trays and racks

AQBT26 base tray – Required if flat-bottom flasks are to be placed directly on the base of the bath and to promote thermal convection in the bath

RS14H raised shelves – Provides two alternative depths to accommodate different sizes/shapes of vessels simultaneously. More than one shelf can be used to achieve a range of depths. 120 x 90 x 80mm (w x l x h), covers 20% of the area of the JB Aqua 18.

J2 test tube rack – The JB Aqua 18 will accommodate three J2 test tube racks. There is a choice of eight variants to accommodate different tubes diameters and microtubes
