The Techne SBS-4 fluidised F932D bath by Cole Parmer can be used for heat-treating processes, calibrating temperature sensors, and testing electrical components. Offering a safe alternative to high-temperature oil and salt baths.
The bath can be bench-mounted or floor-standing and requires an electrical and air supply of about 3 cu ft/minute at about 3 psi for operation. Air passes through the aluminium oxide (Alundum) particles via a porous plate in the unit’s base, separating the individual particles and suspending them in free air to give liquid-bath properties.
The inert, nonflammable aluminium oxide will not corrode your sample vessels or produce toxic fumes. You can quickly immerse vessels of all shapes and safely remove them from the bath without the hazard and mess of hot oils. Adjust temperature with a control knob and a reference dial.
Heaters are fitted within the bath, allowing temperatures up to 500°C. Both models in the range feature a stainless-steel inner container insulated from the outer wall, a safety air pressure switch to protect against loss of air pressure and a thermal cut-out.
Order the TC-9D temperature controller separately (Series Number FSB-200, Model Number FSB-200-TC-S, Item Number 01184-50, Legacy SKU F937P). Digital temperature controller with airflow meter for small fluidised sand baths (FSB-200), 0°C to 620°C (230 VAC).
