IKA Dry Block Heaters - Dry Block Heater 3

IKA’s Dry Block Heater 3 is a digital block heater for three aluminum blocks; designed to provide precise temperature control in small vessels.

The included PT 1000 temperature sensor allows direct control of temperature within the vessel, and it can be used with PCR strips, PCR tubes, microplates, cuvettes and Greiner tubes.

The block heater is ideal for the determination of melting and boiling points, incubation and activation of cultures, enzyme reactions, DNA denaturation, immunoassays, culture media tests, coagulation tests, blood-urea-nitrogen determination and in situ hybridizations.
