This Lab-Line analog water bath features dual thermostats and an independent high limit thermostat for over-temperature protection. Hinged acrylic cover lifts to a 90° stay-open position or can be removed completely. Fins on the hinged clear acrylic gable cover (included) protect hands from hot vapors. Exterior remains cool to the touch even after extended use to prevent accidental burns. Temperature-resistant plastic rim fits over the seamLess stainless-steel reservoir for a leak-free seal. Stainless-steel exterior resists corrosion and has a tough, easy-to-clean enamel coating. Rounded, seamLess stainless-steel reservoir and diffuser tray resist rust and contamination for simple maintenance. Heating elements will not burn out if the bath accidentally runs dry. Easy-to-use analog control and hydraulic thermostat ideal for fixed-setpoint applications.
