Used VWR Heat Block II #9146161 for sale

VWR Heat Block II is a high-performance laboratory equipment and accessory designed for multiple sample block heating applications. This ergonomic unit is an excellent addition to any laboratory, combining ease of use with tailored heating capabilities and a wide range of applications. It is ideal for rapid heating and cooling of samples, such as PCR reactions, enzyme assays, and nucleic acid extractions. The instrument features five two-position block inserts with 12, 16, or 24 sample wells. Each block allows homogenous sample heating for superior biochemical and immunological analyses. Additionally, temperature variable ranges from 5°C above ambient to 150°C (302°F) with an accuracy and uniformity of ± 0.3°C (at 95°C) and a stability of ± 0.2°C (at 95°C). These block inserts fit perfectly within the aluminum heating block and the robust polycarbonate housing ensures the user-friendly operation. Heat Block II also features an easy-to-read LCD display that provides temperature degree readings, block selection options, as well as on/off settings. The timer function allows users to set heating parameters, such as temperature and duration of operation. Once the block is in heating mode, the aluminum heating plate on the interior heats up, causing the precise temperature setpoint to be maintained for efficient sample processing. Moreover, the unit has a rapid heat-up feature for quick pre-heating of multiple wells. VWR Heat Block II is also designed with a convenient safety feature that automatically shuts off the unit when the timer has expired or when the temperature setting reaches 150°C. In addition, the heating block is compatible with both standard and deep-well block inserts, ensuring the best performance for any sample. This versatile pre-programmable and adjustable laboratory equipment and accessory is the perfect solution for efficient sample block heating. Heat Block II is efficient, user-friendly, and provides excellent performance for the most demanding molecular applications.
