Hydro water baths for every laboratory application
Laboratory water baths for temperature control from 25 to 100 °C
The LAUDA Hydro water baths exist for precise temperature control in laboratory applications. The series includes six water baths and two water baths with a circulating function, offering a wide range of configurations for different laboratory requirements.
With bath volumes from 4 to 41 liters, the Hydro water baths provide different bath depths and openings to suit various applications. All models operate within a temperature range up to 100 °C and achieve a temperature stability of ±0.1 K, allowing use in applications that require temperatures up to the boiling range.
Stainless steel construction and intuitive operation
The bath interior is manufactured from high-quality stainless steel. The bath vessel, cover, sieve plate and heating element are also made of stainless steel to support reliable laboratory operation.
A TFT color display provides intuitive operation and clearly displays process data. Temperature values can be displayed in either °C or °F, while the membrane keypad with clear symbols allows straightforward navigation. The temperature is adjustable and displayed in increments of 0.1 °C using digital setpoint adjustment.
Temperature control and timer functions
The LAUDA Hydro water baths provide direct temperature control for rapid heating and include three user-specific timer functions for application-specific operation. The timer settings are configurable in hours and minutes, providing flexible control over heating processes.
Safety functions
The Hydro water baths include several monitoring and alarm functions to support safe operation:
- Visual and acoustic alarms for low liquid level, undertemperature and overtemperature
- Sensor break and short-circuit monitoring
- Adjustable alarm trigger points for overtemperature and undertemperature up to a maximum of ±10 K
- Electronic monitoring of the temperature controller
A heat-insulating, double-walled stainless steel lid with inner curvature prevents condensation from dripping back into sample vessels.
Design features
The Hydro water baths include:
- Stainless steel bath vessel with drain valve
- Stainless steel lid and perforated floor supplied as standard
- One-point temperature controller
- Temperature display switchable between °C and °F
- Adjustable timer functions
- Membrane keypad with clear symbols
