TCU-1
Heated Circulator Bath
BDC Laboratories’ TCU-1 heated circulator bath establishes stable and reliable thermal control for any fluid test environment. This fully saline-compatible system has the unique ability to monitor and control either the fluid temperature within its bath or a remotely measured temperature in the associated test chamber.
Designed for continual operation and heating of an adjacent fluid filled test chamber through an integrated circulation pump, the TCU-1 heated circulator bath can be used for numerous applications that require reliable and tight thermal stability.
Common Applications:
- Fluid baths for fatigue test systems
- Heat exchangers for bioreactors
- Controlling fluid temperature in simulated use systems and universal tester fluid baths
Key System Features
