36 New Refrigerated Circulating Bath Increases Sample Capacity in Compact Footprint
A new refrigerated circulating bath featuring innovative headless technology offers researchers working with temperature-sensitive samples a larger bath area than most competing models. The instrument is designed to allow laboratories to fit more samples in the same footprint, access the instrument more easily, and save valuable space in the laboratory. The Thermo Scientific VersaCool Refrigerated Circulating Bath is suitable for use as a refrigerated bath or circulator that can control the temperature of external equipment. It can easily be used under the bench, inside the fume hood or in industrial and even mobile installations. The VersaCool’s control head and heating/cooling coils are mounted internally, and this first-of-its-kind ‘headless’ design frees up valuable space inside the unit, allowing users to fit more samples in the same footprint and also clean the instrument more easily. A variable speed pump and fans contribute to reduced energy consumption when compared to previous models. The VersaCool’s advanced communications and control features are designed to ensure that samples are being properly maintained. This is achieved by monitoring the temperature of the fluid either in the bath, or circulated by the VersaCool into an application such as a bioreactor in biotech and biopharma labs or a condenser in chemical/petrochemical applications. Users can monitor the instrument and receive notifications through a Bluetooth™-enabled smartphone or tablet, or connect to an existing Thermo Scientific Smart-Vue enabled lab for wireless temperature monitoring and traceability.
The VersaCool’s hinged-lid provides an ergonomic feature that allows the user to switch easily between left-hand and right-hand bath access. Additional ergonomic features include the control panel being located on the front of the unit. Users no longer have to reach across the bath working area to access the control system, minimising the risk of bath fumes interfering with the touchscreen. Additional features include: tool-less, drip-less rack and lid; global voltage; intuitive touch-screen interface.

Save 30% on Running Costs with New Anaerobic Workstations
Don Whitley Scientific Ltd has launched two new anaerobic workstations that provide laboratories with significant cost savings in gas supplies.
The Whitley A85TG Workstation and the Whitley A95TG Workstation are very cost-effective anaerobic chambers as they run from three separate gases. Unique to DWS, these workstations can operate around 30% cheaper than dual gas versions (which use cylinders of ANO2
and N2 ).
The A85TG and A95TG run on separate cylinders of N2, H2 and CO2
to create anaerobic conditions,
which is much more cost-effective than purchasing pre-mixed anaerobic gas.
Both models are fitted with a large 30 litre airlock with powered internal door to provide effective sample and equipment transfer in the fastest possible time, whilst ensuring the minimum amount of oxygen is introduced into the chamber.
They are also fitted with manual, oval glove ports to enable you to work gloved or bare handed. Each gloveport also acts as a mini-airlock for 10 plates so you can transfer up to 20 plates as you insert your arms – another saving in gas as this avoids the need to run an airlock cycle for small numbers of plates.
The Whitley A85TG Workstation and the Whitley A95TG Workstation both have the colour, touch- screen control panel for ease of use and for visual display of parameters such as temperature, humidity, and airlock cycle status.
Additionally, they have an automatic commissioning cycle and a built-in de-humidification system, saving you time and resources. Both have a range of options and accessories to tailor the workstation to your specific application, including a fully integrated Anaerobic Conditions Monitor that displays real time oxygen levels and enables download of data for further analysis.
The A85TG can accommodate between 500 - 700 x 90mm Petri dishes and the A95TG is the larger model, accommodating between 1000 - 1400 x 90mm dishes in a chamber that has two sets of glove ports.
