Huber's Minichillers provide a cost-effective, environmentally friendly cooling option for various laboratory applications. According to an estimate of water and wastewater expenditures, a Minichiller can save up to 48,000 liters of water per workweek.
The Minichillers are available in air- and water-cooled versions, as well as models with integrated heating. The variety of options enables users to select the model that best suits their requirements. All models are equipped with the OLÉ controller as standard, which is easy to operate and well equipped with an OLED display, RS232 and USB. On request, the Minichillers are also available with the Pilot ONE touchscreen controller for even more functionality.
The units only require a small amount of space on the laboratory bench and allow working temperatures from -20 °C to +80 °C. Consequently, Minichillers are the ideal solution for cooling reactor blocks, vapour barriers, vacuum pumps, rotary evaporators and heat exchangers. Due to the low purchase price, the return on investment in a Minichiller is amortised within a short period of time.
