Laboratory Hot Air Oven

Product Description

The Metalab Laboratory Hot Air Oven is designed for reliable drying, heating, ageing and sterilization applications in laboratories, research facilities and industrial quality control environments. Built with a double-walled stainless steel construction, the oven provides excellent temperature stability and uniform heat distribution, making it suitable for laboratories that require consistent thermal performance for routine testing and sample preparation.

The oven features an SS 304 inner chamber with a mirror finish and a matt-finished exterior, while the cavity between the two walls is insulated with high-quality glass wool to minimize heat loss and improve energy efficiency. Heating is provided through specially designed energy-efficient air heaters located at the bottom of the chamber, and a forced air circulation system ensures uniform temperature distribution throughout the workspace. The fully insulated door with a silicone gasket, brass hinges and secure locking mechanism helps maintain stable operating conditions during extended use.

Equipped with a microprocessor-based Auto Tune PID temperature controller, a Class A PT100 temperature sensor, temperature deviation alarm and independent safety thermostat, the oven delivers precise temperature control from 50C to 250C with a 0.1C resolution. The Metalab Laboratory Hot Air Oven is available in multiple chamber sizes and power ratings to suit different laboratory requirements. Optional accessories including an inbuilt timer, castor wheels, single-channel data logger and RS-485 communication with 21 CFR software compatibility are also available based on application requirements.
