The ConductScience Thermostatic Oil Bath provides precise temperature control for laboratory applications requiring stable heating at temperatures up to 300°C. This 23.5L capacity unit features ±1°C temperature fluctuation and precision for reliable thermal treatment of samples, reagents, and laboratory glassware. The LED display interface allows direct temperature monitoring and control across the RT to 300°C operating range.
Designed for benchtop operation, this oil bath accommodates various container sizes within its 280×280×300mm internal chamber. The 2000W heating element provides rapid heat-up while maintaining temperature stability essential for enzymatic assays, chemical syntheses, and sample preparation protocols requiring controlled thermal environments.
How It Works
Thermostatic oil baths operate through controlled resistance heating of a thermal transfer medium, typically mineral oil or specialized heat transfer fluids. The heating element generates thermal energy that is distributed throughout the oil volume, creating a uniform temperature environment. Temperature sensors monitor the oil temperature and provide feedback to the control system, which modulates heating power to maintain the setpoint within the specified precision range.
The oil medium provides superior temperature uniformity compared to air-based heating systems due to its higher thermal conductivity and heat capacity. This allows for stable temperature conditions around immersed containers and samples. The LED display interface shows real-time temperature readings and allows setpoint adjustment across the full operating range from room temperature to 300°C.

Practical Tips
Verify temperature accuracy using NIST-traceable reference thermometer at multiple points across your operating range.
Why: Ensures measurement traceability and identifies any temperature offset for correction in protocols.
Change oil regularly when it becomes discolored or viscous, especially after repeated high-temperature use.
Why: Degraded oil reduces heat transfer efficiency and can produce fumes or contaminants.
Allow 15-20 minutes for temperature equilibration before introducing samples, particularly for precise applications.
Why: Ensures uniform temperature distribution throughout the oil volume and eliminates thermal gradients.
Use appropriate heat-resistant gloves and tools when handling containers at temperatures above 60°C.
Why: Prevents thermal burns and allows safe manipulation of hot laboratory glassware and samples.
If temperature overshoots target, check for proper oil level and ensure heating element is fully immersed.
Why: Exposed heating elements can create hot spots and poor temperature control leading to overshooting.
Record actual oil temperature alongside display readings during critical temperature-dependent procedures.
Why: Provides documentation of actual thermal conditions and identifies any calibration drift over time.

Compliance
What type of heat transfer fluid should be used with this oil bath?
Use mineral oil or specialized heat transfer fluids rated for temperatures up to 300°C. Avoid water-based solutions which have lower boiling points and may cause safety hazards at high temperatures.
How long does it take to reach target temperature from room temperature?
Heat-up time depends on target temperature and thermal load, but the 2000W heating capacity typically achieves 100°C in 15-20 minutes and higher temperatures proportionally longer.
Can this unit be used for continuous operation at maximum temperature?
Yes, the system is designed for continuous operation at 300°C, though regular monitoring of oil levels and condition is recommended for extended high-temperature use.
What is the temperature uniformity across the chamber volume?
Consult product datasheet for specific uniformity specifications, though oil-based systems typically provide better temperature distribution than air-based heating.
How often should temperature calibration be verified?
Verify calibration annually or per laboratory quality procedures using NIST-traceable reference thermometers at key operating temperatures.
What safety precautions are needed for high-temperature operation?
Ensure adequate ventilation, use appropriate PPE when handling hot containers, and maintain proper oil levels to prevent overheating of heating elements.
