Product Description
A sand bath mantle needs a controller to hold a safe, steady temperature, and this power control is designed for exactly that role. It regulates resistive heating circuits by cycling power on and off, giving repeatable heat settings for teaching and microscale labs.
This listing is for Kimble catalog number 720600-0115: Power Control. The control uses on-off proportional switching rather than varying voltage. Double-housed silver contacts cycle rapidly; at 40% the circuit is on 6 seconds and off 9 seconds. It is rated 1000 W at 50/60 Hz, has a grounded 3-wire cord, is fused at 8 A and carries CSA certification, equivalent to UL approval. LIGHT LABS ships genuine DWK Life Sciences products with knowledgeable support from our Englewood, Colorado team.
