PR1MA™ Digital Dry Bath Series

• Digital temperature control
• Hinged lid
• External (optional) temperature probe
• Available with Quick-Flip universal blocks (supports all common tube sizes, PCR strips and PCR plates)
• Blocks sold separately

MIDSCI's PR1MA™ Digital Dry Bath Series is a "next generation" product line that introduces several major advantages over traditional dry baths. They are the first digital dry baths to include advanced microprocessor controls, timed or continuous operation and a removable hinged lid. In addition, an optional external temperature feedback probe can be positioned directly inside a sample tube, providing real-time control and monitoring of actual sample temperature.

The PR1MA™ Digital Dry Bath's transparent lid helps to promote better uniformity and minimize temperature stratification in the block by maintaining a warm air jacket layer. It also helps to reduce energy consumption by minimizing heat loss to the environment. The hinged lid can be flipped open (to the rear), or easily removed (lifted off) to accommodate taller tubes.

Both the single and dual block models can be ordered in a configuration that includes our unique Quick-Flip blocks. These universal blocks accept tubes from 0.5 to 2.0 mL and, with just a quick flip to the other side, accommodate 0.2 mL tubes, PCR strips or (in the dual block model only) a PCR plate. Other blocks are available for tubes up to 50 mL.

Bead Baths from Lab Armor are designed with the user in mind and are optimized to work with Lab Armor Bath Beads. Bead Bath performs all the essentials, including warming, thawing, incubating, chilling and does so while maintaining a constant temperature just like a water bath. These baths deliver exceptional temperature uniformity up to 80°C. The baths are available in 6L, 14L, and 20L sizes, with and without beads included.

Uniform Temperatures - with Bead Bath designed specifically for beads, temperatures are consistent and uniform everywhere in the bath. Thermal uniformity is an amazing ±5 °C at 37 °C and ± 1 °C at 65 °C. Since Bead Bath won't boil off like water, or pose danger of combustion like oil, it is ideal for most applications from 37°C to 400 °C.

Fast Start - Bead Bath gets up and running faster and you never need to turn it off. There is nothing to evaporate. Unlike a standard bead-filled water bath, Bead Bath allows you to achieve a new set temperature quickly, without long warm up delays, so you can make quick adjustments.

Stays Organized - Unlike water baths that require racks, floats and bottleneck weights, Bead Bath naturally holds things in place without accessories. The types and kinds of vessels that can be used with the Bead Bath aren't limited to water-tight containers. So you can safely incubate multiwall plates and petri dishes-or thaw samples without fear of water wicking under the lids. And vessels can be set into the beads at any angle for better thermal optimization.

Low Maintenance - Water baths must be routinely monitored, cleaned and maintained. While it is a good idea to keep an eye on Bead Bath, it rarely needs attention. A bi-weekly or monthly spritz of a biodegradable disinfectant is usually sufficient.

Dry, metallic beads that replace water in water baths, aluminum blocks in dry baths, or ice in ice buckets. Lab Armor® Beads are convenient, versatile, and can maintain hot or cold sample temperatures in just about any vessel type.

For the Water Bath

• Not prone to microbial contamination like water
• Eliminates the need for harmful agents such as azides
• Bottles or tubes will not tip over and float
• Eliminates the need for racks, floats, or bottleneck weights
• No more emptying, cleaning, or refilling the water bath
• Eliminates water evaporation and burnout worries

For the Ice Bucket

• No more melted ice and floating tubes
• No more long trips to the ice machine
• Reduce contamination worries without water

For the Heating Block

• Replace drilled out aluminum blocks
• Convenience - no blocks to switch out for different sized tubes
• Flexibility - incubate a bottle, tube, petri dish, or microplate in your heating block
• Less costly - no need to purchase multiple blocks

• Two separate modes for BEADS or WATER
• Quik-Cal™, simple in-lab calibration function
• Offers all of the advantages of a "Bead Bath"
• Eliminates constant refills (Burn-out protection)
• Easy (accessory free) securing of tubes and bottles
• Allows angled incubations
• Runs constant (no wait for heat-up)

The BeadBath Duo™ series are the first laboratory baths designed for precision temperature control when used with water, or with (the increasingly popular) Lab Armor® thermal beads. Unlike any other laboratory bath, they feature a "MODE" button that can be used to toggle between "Bead" or "Water" mode. Choosing the correct mode will automatically adjust the operation and balance of the multiple internal heating and sensing elements to ensure optimal performance. The result is one combination bath that is suitable for accurate, and uniform temperature control in either condition.

While most research laboratories today are using water baths, many prefer the convenience of bead baths due to the advantages listed below. With the BeadBath Duo™, the lab gets the best of both worlds, allowing conversion from one bath type to the other, with the simple press of a button.
 
 
Specifications 

The Benchmark series of digital dry baths offer digital control over both temperature and time, eliminating the need for an external thermometer 
or timer.  Available in three configurations, the digital dry baths offer capacity for up to four blocks.  They are extremely space efficient.  (The four block model can accommodate up to 96x1.5ml tubes in less than a square foot of bench space.) 

The cavities of the high grade aluminum blocks are precision machined to match the conical size and shape of 0.5, 1.5, 2.0, 15 and 50ml tube sizes, providing unsurpassed temperature uniformity.  Assorted blocks are available for compatibility with nearly all common tube sizes.  Custom blocks are also 
available upon request, please check Benchmark's web site for a list of all available blocks.

All Benchmark dry baths offer a built-in user recalibration function, to guarantee long term temperature accuracy.  Each dry bath includes an 
easy to use block lifter, with a temperature insulated handle for quick, convenient exchange of blocks, even while they're still hot.

From 4 °C to -20 °C, the Chill Bucket delivers up to 4 hours of constant cooling on once ice pack or with a handful of dry pellets. Every ChillBucket Kit includes a durable polyeurethane laboratory bucket and lid, two gel packs and a mesh sack filled with metallic thermal beads. Each component of the kits was developed with the researcher in mind.

Bucket - The Chill Bucket's bell-like shape and molded side knobs help you carry it stably in one arm. If the knobs were too big, they would get in the way; too shallow, they would not hold the bead bag in place. So the current design is optimized for carrying and stability on the bench.

Bead Bag - The Bead Bag's nylon mesh allows any condensation on the beads to escape and the nylon fiber also resists mold and mildew. If the beads need to be washed, the mesh bag works like a wash bag-the mesh hold are small enough to keep the beads, which makes washing them a breeze.

Chill Packs- The Chill Packs are standard ice packs which hold temperature for a long time and are tough enough to be used over and over again without breaking or tearing like vinyl shipping freeze packs can. In addition, they can be cleaned with alcohol or bleach to keep the Chill Bucket System free of mold and other microbes.
