Plug-in fittings
LabChill Peltier recirculating thermostats feature easy connection to your laboratory application. Suitable plug-in fittings are included and are self-sealing to prevent unintended leakage. The tank can also be drained using a plug-in hose.

LABCHILL Peltier recirculating thermostats are not only among the most powerful systems of their kind, but also take modern ecological requirements into account. The high output of 600 watts allows LABCHILL thermostats to be used for cooling applications such as rotary evaporators. While conventional compressor-based systems rely on vapour compression and require environmentally harmful refrigerants, Peltier chillers operate completely without refrigerants.
At the core of LABCHILL thermostats is a high-performance, optimized Peltier unit that uses semiconductor modules to generate the temperature gradient. This also enables virtually vibration-free operation, as no rotating components are required.
LABCHILL Peltier thermostats use electrical current as the control variable for temperature regulation. Since this can be precisely controlled, temperature stabilities are achieved that are only possible with Peltier technology. This ensures a temperature consistency of < 0.05 K, making them suitable for highly temperature-sensitive applications such as test benches. By easily switching between cooling and heating modes, a wide temperature range can be achieved, with freely adjustable temperatures from -20°C to +70°C.
Precise control is handled by an integrated Peltier controller. The specially developed controller offers extensive functions and safety features. Temperatures are not only precisely regulated but also continuously monitored, helping to avoid downtime through early warning systems.
Multiple communication interfaces, including RS232, LAN, Wi-Fi, and web server-based control, provide extensive integration possibilities. This allows the LABCHILL Peltier recirculating thermostat to be integrated into virtually any application while enabling a high level of automation to increase productivity.

Recirculating Thermostats Accessories

LABCHILL laboratory thermostats are characterised by their compactness and high power density. This ensures a cooling capacity of 600 watts at the same temperature. A wide range of accessories simplifies the integration of the LABCHILL Peltier circulator into the laboratory or industrial application.

Glycotherm® heat-transfer liquids

Water-glycol mixtures for use at especially at low temperatures. Our Glycotherm products are available as Glycotherm 5, Glycotherm 20 and Glycotherm 30 with an operating temperature range down to -5 °C, -20 °C and -30 °C, respectively.
Additionally, the composition of the substances prevents algae formation during operation and thus ensures trouble-free use in your application.

Silotherm® Silicone oils

Silotherm silicone oils are especially suitable for use at high temperatures at which water or glycotherm products could outgas. The viscosity of our Silotherm silicone oils is also specifically matched to the operation with LABCHILL and PROCHILL recirculating thermostats.

Connection hoses

Our connection hoses enable quick and safe installation of the cooling-heating thermostats to the respective application.
The self-sealing connectors allow for a plug & play connection without the danger of liquid leakage when connecting the hose.

Insulated connection hoses

Insulated connection hoses are particularly suitable for applications with high temperature differences to the ambient temperature. The insulation prevents additional energy input in cooling mode or energy loss in heating mode of the cooling-heating thermostats. Our insulated hoses are also equipped with self-sealing connectors.

Examples of possible applications for the LABCHILL Peltier circulation thermostat:

Re-cooling of rotational evaporators

The LABCHILL ensures a constant and low temperature of the cooling medium during the immersion of the flask in the heated water bath. The condensate precipitates at the cooling coil through which the cooling medium flows. The Peltier cooler enables fast and efficient condensation. Compared to compressor coolers, the LABCHILL thus reaches the target temperature much faster and can reduce process times. The use of Peltier coolers without refrigerants enables largely maintenance-free operation and meets the ecological requirements of modern laboratories.

Temperature control of water baths

The LABCHILL offers reliable and precise temperature control of water baths, with a wide working temperature range. It combines cooling and heating operation in one and is also suitable for use with silicone oils. The high temperature stability ensures precise temperature control, even in demanding applications such as sensor calibrations.

Analytical devices like e.g. refractometers, viscosity-meters or polarimeter

In order to produce accurate measurement results, refractometers, viscometers or polarimeters depend on precise temperature control. Our device meets these requirements with a temperature accuracy of < 0.05 K. At the same time, the LABCHILL operates with low vibration and almost no noise in silent mode. In addition, it is characterized by its compactness and is therefore an indispensable tool in every laboratory.

Bioreactors

Temperature has a major influence on the growth and development of organisms, bacteria and viruses. Precise regulation of temperature is therefore crucial for controlled processes. Our bioreactor enables optimal control of the process through a wide media temperature range and agile adjustment of temperature control. This allows reactions in the bioreactor to be accelerated or slowed down to achieve the desired results.
