Huber Ministat ultracompact refrigeration circulator

Huber Ministats are small cooling circulators which have enough power to thermoregulate photometers, refractometers, viscosimeters, distillation apparatus, reactor vessels and mini plants. Their compact form allows them to be placed in areas where space is at a premium. They can be used to control external applications or objects that can be thermoregulated directly in the bath.

The range consists of three models which are available as air- or water-cooled versions. Depending on the model, working temperatures from -45 to +200°C and cooling capacities of 600 W can be achieved. The maximum admissible environmental temperature for continual operation is +40°C.

A powerful variable speed pressure/suction pump allows optimum circulation and can be controlled using an optional pressure sensor which protects delicate glassware. All models have Active Cooling Control for cooling power control at the maximum working temperature and an automatic cooling power regulation for energy-saving operation and reduced heat dissipation into the lab. Parts in contact with the thermal fluid are made of stainless steel or polycarbonate, guaranteeing long service life.

The product is fitted with the Pilot ONE touch-screen controller, which provides comfortable navigation and advanced control technology. Operation is via a colour 5.7″ TFT touch-screen display with convenient menu prompts and full text menu guidance in 11 languages. Important parameters such as process temperature, jacket temperature, pump pressure and safety equipment are visible at a glance - the temperature processes are graphically displayed and shown in real time.

Ease of use is facilitated with USB/LAN connections, which also benefits data recording or remote control. For example, temperature measurement data can be easily stored on a USB stick. The USB connection also allows a connection to a PC or notebook. Combined with the Huber Spy Software, requirements such as remote control or data transmission can be performed easily.
