Configurations

• Two-Chamber — Basket Transfer (Vertical Stack): Sample basket moves vertically between high-temperature and low-temperature chambers for fast transfer and high cycle throughput; suitable for frequent cycling and batch testing.
• Single-Chamber — Static Sample (Airflow Switching): Single chamber with rapid hot/cold airflow switching; sample remains static (no mechanical transfer); suitable for delicate or wired samples; supports RS-232 / RS-485 data logging.

Features

• Recovery ≤ 5 sec (conversion) and ≤ 5 min (temperature recovery) for rapid thermal shock cycles.
• Three low-temperature grades down to −65 °C and an optional high-temperature up to +200 °C.
• Programmable cycles up to 999 cycles and 999 hours per step for extended automated sequences.
• Touch-screen control with RS-232 / RS-485 interfaces; automatic and manual modes.
• Cooling options: water-cooled (semi-hermetic double-stage compressor) or air-cooled (hermetic double-stage compressor).

Key Features
