Deep-Well Compact Baths

Is it possible to combine speed, high stability, depth, and convenience into a quiet, compact fluid bath? Absolutely! Hart's new "Deep-Well Compact Bath" series includes four baths that cover temperatures from 40°C to 300°C, –20°C to 150°C, –40°C to 150°C, and –80°C to 110°C. Stability and uniformity start at ±0.005°C and ±0.007°C respectively.
The footprint of these baths is just 14" by 31" (356 by 788 mm), yet each bath includes an 18-inch-deep tank (457 mm), making it perfect for long-stem liquid-in-glass (LIG) thermometers or SPRTs. (An optional "LIG Cal Kit" raises the meniscus of the bath fluid to within about 0.5", or 12.7 mm, of the top surface of the bath itself.)
The access opening to each bath is 4.7 by 6.8 inches (120 by 172 mm), so users can calibrate plenty of thermometers at once. Fluid requirements, however, are just 4.2 gallons (15.9 liters), so fluid costs are minimized. All baths are compatible with Hart's MET/TEMP II software for automating thermometer calibrations.
