Product Description
Teaching labs following the Williamson microscale textbook need a heat source that is safe, even and compatible with stirring. This sand bath mantle meets that need, heating small vessels gently through sand while an aluminum base lets a magnetic stirrer work underneath.
This listing is for Kimble catalog number 720500-0101: Sand Bath Heating Mantle. The mantle is designed for a 100 mL flask and reaches a maximum of 500 °C. It is ideal for microscale work with vessels of 5 mL or less. It comes with a one-meter, 3-wire cord and US plug and must be run with an input controller such as 720600-0115. Run continuously at 40% power; full power should not exceed 10 minutes. It is CSA certified. Order it from LIGHT LABS and keep your lab stocked with genuine DWK Life Sciences products.
