All stainless steel Ministats are exceptionally compact and powerful. Their compact form allows them to be placed in the smallest space, e.g. in a laboratory extract hood. All three ministats® are now available with air- or watercooling. Compliance with DIN 12876-1, class 3 allows it to be used unsupervised in continuous operation.
A powerful variable speed pressure/suction pump can thermoregulate either objects in the bath and/or external applications. The maximum pressure can be controlled using an optional pressure sensor. VPC (variable pressure control) protects delicate glassware. This small volume and high power means exceptionally rapid heating and cooling rates are achieved. Optional displacement inserts reduce the bath volume by approximately 50% increasing this effect. All models have Active Cooling Control for cooling power control at the maximum working temperature and an automatic cooling power regulation for energy saving operation and reduced heat dissipation into the lab.
The bath opening is large enough to allow small objects to be thermoregulated in the bath. All parts in contact with the thermal fluid are made of stainless steel or high quality plastic and Ministats® have the CCPilot with Plug & Play-Technology (proven since 1980).
In the event of service the controller can be simply swapped. Using a data cable the ministat® can be remotely controlled. The CC-Pilot has a state of the art microprocessor controller and a high precision temperature measurement system for exact and reproducible temperature control. The functionality and TFT-display are supported by Easy Control. Ministats® can be fitted with a ComG@te (NAMUR Standard) and so be integrated in a process control system.
Typical applications for the smallest cooling thermostat in the world are external closed systems e.g. photometer, refractometer and viscosimeter.
Increased functionality with optional accessories :
- External pressure sensor for VPC pressure control
- ComG@te (NAMUR Standard): (RS232, RS485, programmable volt-free contact, ECS (external control signal), Level monitoring
- Calibration and displacement insert
