Baths use aluminum oxide fluidized by low-pressure air as a dry bath medium with excellent heat transfer properties. Inert, nonflammable aluminum oxide is safer to use than oil and will not corrode your sample vessels or produce toxic fumes. Vessels of all shapes can be easily immersed and safely removed from the bath, without the hazard and mess of hot oils. Make temperature adjustments via a control knob and reference dial. Baths require a dry air flow of approximately 2 cu ft/min (57 L/min) at about 3 psi pressure; order an air pump separately. Order temperature controller (01184-50 or 01184-55) to accurately control the temperature of your sand bath. Baths feature a thermowell to hold a thermocouple thermometer. Note: not recommended for shape setting in laboratory research device manufacturing or for heating of reactors.|Working dimensions: 13-3/4" deep x 9" dia (35 x 22.8 cm) Overall dimensions (excluding tap): 27-3/8"H x 15-3/16" dia (69.5 x 38.5 cm)
