Block Heaters

Dry Baths and Block Heaters

Dry baths, also known as block heaters, offer an efficient and dry method of heating samples without the use of water or oil. They are ideal for applications such as incubation, enzyme reactions, DNA denaturation or sample preparation in molecular biology and clinical laboratories.

Precise Dry Temperature Control

Block heaters provide rapid and uniform heating via interchangeable aluminium blocks. The temperature is precisely adjustable and maintained stably throughout the entire process. Thanks to the short warm-up time, the units are quickly operational, contributing to an efficient workflow in the laboratory.

Interchangeable Blocks for Maximum Flexibility

The system operates with interchangeable blocks suitable for a wide range of tube sizes, microplates and other labware. By simply switching blocks, the same unit can be deployed for different protocols and sample formats. This makes the equipment particularly versatile and cost-effective.

Compact and Low-Maintenance

Thanks to the dry heating principle, there is no risk of contamination from water baths and maintenance is minimal. The compact dimensions save valuable workspace on the laboratory bench. Operation is straightforward and intuitive, meaning the equipment is immediately deployable without extensive training.

Broad Range of Applications

From routine sample preparation to specialist molecular biology protocols, block heaters are a reliable choice for diverse laboratory environments. Poly Temp supplies dry baths and block heaters in various configurations and is happy to advise on selecting the right model and accompanying blocks for your application.
