Laboratory dryers
Laboratory dryers
A laboratory dryer is used for safe drying within a temperature range of +5°C above ambient temperature up to +300°C. Our devices with a temperature chamber are distinguished by high usability and provide consistent testing conditions regardless of the size and quantity of samples. Thanks to the APT.line™ preheating chamber, they achieve uniform temperature regulation, and excellent thermal insulation contributes to low operating costs.
Types of laboratory dryers
A laboratory dryer is constructed to ensure uniform temperature inside the chamber during conducted experiments. Depending on the type of air circulation, different types of laboratory dryers can be distinguished:
- Natural convection dryers – they have natural air circulation, ensuring precise drying and heating of materials, while operating silently.
- Forced convection dryers – airflow is generated by a fan, resulting in even heating throughout the entire surface; they are characterized by fast operation and high precision, often used for drying samples with high humidity.
- Vacuum dryers – used for drying substances that tend to oxidize quickly and have thermal instability, allowing precise temperature control.
- Safety dryers – providing excellent conditions for drying materials with flammable solvents, such as varnishes.
Application of dryers in the laboratory
Laboratory dryers are used for processes such as sample drying, glass tempering, and sterilization. They find applications in chemical, medical, pharmaceutical, biological, and physical laboratories. For example, they are used to examine the effect of high temperature on product properties, dry plant samples, or conduct research on protein serum.
