Description

The MD-MINI is a robust and compact dry block heater that uses a range of interchangeable alloy blocks for heating samples in tubes and tube strips. The MD-MINI has a moulded aluminium block chamber that ensures even heating and no leakage so that the instrument can also be used as a water bath or bead bath.

The MD-MINI features a PTFE coating for stain resistance and easy cleaning and a clear polycarbonate lid for increased temperature stability. The unit has a bright LED display with a touch control panel and a timer function with audible alarm.

The MD-MINI is ideal for remote use as it can be powered from a vehicle using the vehicle adapter. The unit incorporates a USB port for easy data logging.

Blocks and other options

These precision-machined aluminium alloy blocks allow for highly efficient heating of samples. They have a block lifting well to assist in removing the block from the instrument and a well to allow the insertion of a thermometer.
