BeadBath Duo™ Water and Bead Bath
The BeadBath Duo™ Water and Bead Bath is the first laboratory bath designed to deliver precise, uniform temperature control when used with either water or Lab Armor® thermal beads. Unlike traditional baths, the BeadBath Duo™ features a dedicated MODE button that allows users to easily switch between Water Mode and Bead Mode. Each mode automatically optimizes the internal heating and sensing elements to ensure accurate and consistent temperature performance.
This versatile design gives laboratories the flexibility to use traditional water baths or take advantage of the growing popularity of bead baths, all in a single instrument. With the press of a button, the BeadBath Duo™ converts between bath types, providing the best of both worlds without compromising accuracy or convenience.
Main Attributes
- Dual operating modes for Beads or Water
- MODE button automatically optimizes heating and sensing for each bath type
- QuikCal™ in-lab calibration for fast, simple temperature adjustment
- Offers all the advantages of a bead bath while retaining water bath capability
- Eliminates constant water refills and reduces burnout risk
- Accessory-free securing of tubes and bottles
- Supports angled incubations
- Maintains continuous operation with no wait for heat-up
The BeadBath Duo™ is an ideal solution for laboratories seeking flexibility, reliability, and precision temperature control in a single compact bath.
