Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the IKA HBR 4 Control Heating Bath, 4 L, Magnetic Stirring, UK Plug used for?

It is designed for controlled heating and circulation of water or low-viscosity oil. Integrated stirring circulates the bath medium for improved temperature distribution, while the safety limiter and double jacket support controlled operation.

2. How does the bath improve temperature distribution?

An integrated magnetic stirrer circulates the heat-transfer fluid throughout the cylindrical bath. This helps reduce local temperature differences during controlled heating.

3. Which heat-transfer media can be used?

The bath can use water or low-viscosity oil up to 50 mPa·s. The medium must also be compatible with the required temperature and laboratory process.

4. What safety and control features are included?

The unit includes an adjustable safety temperature limiter in accordance with DIN 12877, a digital display and an RS 232 interface. This version is supplied with a UK Plug.
