Water Bath
Product Code : EL-LWB-11101
Last updated: 6 October 2026
Quick answer: A 9 litre stainless-steel water bath with a knob temperature adjustment, ambient to 65 degrees C without the lid, control to +/-0.5 degrees and a lighted on/off switch. Tub interior 11-1/2 x 9-1/2 x 6 inches.
At 9 litres this is the largest bath in the family and the one suited to a class working simultaneously: the tub interior is 11-1/2 by 9-1/2 by 6 inches, enough for several racks of tubes or a set of flasks at once.
Control is by knob rather than digital display, holding temperature to +/-0.5 degrees across a range of ambient to 65 degrees C without the lid. That range covers the common molecular biology temperatures, 37 degrees for culture and incubation, 42 for heat shock, 55 to 65 for digests and hybridisation, but not boiling, so it will not serve for a 95 degree denaturation step.
The tank is stainless steel, which is the right material: it cleans easily and does not corrode where the water line sits, which is where painted or plated tanks fail first. A lighted on/off switch shows at a glance whether the bath is powered, worth having on an instrument left running between classes.
The lid is not mentioned as supplied although the temperature range is qualified as being without it, so confirm whether one is included. Evaporation from an uncovered 9 litre bath at 60 degrees is significant over a day, and the water level needs watching.

Only what this listing publishes is recorded above. Confirm the supply voltage before ordering: the published electrical specification is a 110 to 120 V nominal supply, which is not the Indian mains standard; ask whether a 220 to 240 V, 50 Hz version is available for your destination. It is not stated whether a lid is supplied, although the temperature range is qualified as being without one, and no tube racks are mentioned. Wattage, weight, temperature uniformity across the tank and whether a low-water cut-out is fitted are also not stated. Confirm these before ordering.
