The Lab Armor Bead Bath provides a unique alternative to conventional laboratory water baths. Specifically designed for use with innovative dry thermal beads that stay clean and provide efficient temperature control. Bead Bath remains dry, clean and at proper temperature all the time. Since Bead Bath is waterless there is no evaporation to cause frequent reheating cycles. This reduces energy consumption and eliminates microbial contamination that can occur in conventional water baths. Ideal for use with multi-well plates, petri dishes, tubes and containers with open tops. Accepts up to 4x4L (299104) packs of beads. Includes stainless steel lid and power adapter.
