Description
Electric sand bath model ST 82 is a laboratory hotplate appliance designed for controlled heating applications in the range from +50 to +300 °C. With a rated power of 2850 W, it supports demanding thermal work where even heat distribution through a sand medium is required for flasks, dishes, or other vessels. The unit is supplied as a single piece and has a substantial construction mass of 21,000 kg, reflecting a robust bench-top design suited to routine laboratory use. Categories of application include general labware heating tasks and processes that benefit from indirect, stable temperature transfer rather than direct contact with a metal plate surface. This electric sand bath model ST 82 from manufacturer Gestigkeit fits workflows in analytical, preparative, and teaching laboratories that need reliable elevated-temperature support without open flame. Its defined operating window from +50 to +300 °C and high power rating make it appropriate for evaporation, digestion support, and sample conditioning steps where sand baths are preferred. The appliance is offered as one complete unit for straightforward integration into existing laboratory appliance setups alongside other hotplates and heating equipment.

Questions about Electric sand bath model ST 82, +50 to +300 °C, 2850 W, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
Electric sand bath model ST 82, +50 to +300 °C, 2850 W, 1 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Gestigkeit for laboratory use. It sits in Hot plates & heating blocks, inside Heating, drying & cooling, in Lab instruments.
A hot plate heats a flat-bottom vessel from below, often with stirring. A heating block holds tubes in machined holes so each tube sees the same temperature. The block's hole diameter has to match the tube, or the heat never arrives.
Temperature equipment either holds a set point or drives a sample toward one. An oven dries. A furnace reaches the temperatures of ashing and melting. A bath surrounds a vessel with water or oil. A circulator moves that fluid. An incubator holds the mild warmth of a culture. An autoclave uses steam under pressure to sterilise. The number that matters is the temperature the article actually reaches, not the number painted on the dial. Temperature is part of the international system kept by the BIPM and compared by EURAMET.
