Water Bath with Passive Circulation, Stainless Steel, 180F, 7.76 Gal

Water Bath with Passive Circulation, Stainless Steel, 180F, 7.76 Gal

The Water Bath is a versatile and essential piece of equipment for any materials testing lab, engineered for precision, durability, and ease of use. This high-capacity, 7.76-gallon (29.4L) water bath is designed to maintain consistent temperatures for a wide range of ASTM testing applications, including those for asphalt, concrete, and aggregates.

Key Features:

• Wide Temperature Range: Operates from ambient temperature up to 180°F (82°C) with exceptional accuracy of +/-0.1% of the input span, ensuring your specimens are conditioned precisely as required.
• High-Capacity Specimen Accommodation: The spacious interior can hold up to twelve 4" diameter or three 6" diameter Marshall specimens simultaneously, increasing your lab's efficiency.
• Uniform Temperature Distribution: While designed for passive circulation, this model includes a magnetic stirring bar that induces gentle water flow. This ensures a uniform temperature throughout the bath, eliminating hot or cold spots for reliable and repeatable results.
• Intuitive Digital Control: The user-friendly front panel features a dual digital display that shows both the setpoint and the current process temperature at a glance, allowing for easy monitoring and adjustment.
• Durable and Efficient Construction: Built entirely with stainless steel for all exposed surfaces, the bath offers excellent corrosion resistance and easy cleaning. The unit is fully insulated to minimize heat loss, maintain temperature stability, and ensure energy-efficient operation. A stainless steel support shelf is included, which holds specimens securely while allowing for 2 inches of free-circulating water above and below, as mandated by many testing standards.
• Built to Last: The control panel is designed to be both water and corrosion-resistant, safeguarding the electronics in a demanding lab environment.
