Description
RC 2 basic is a highly energy-efficient recirculating chiller designed for cooling tasks down to −20 °C, delivering a strong 400 W cooling capacity. A speed-controlled PEEK pump allows indirect, stepless adjustment of maximum pressure and flow rate, while excellent temperature stability of ± 0,1 K (at −10 °C) supports demanding laboratory applications. From the high-quality insulated 4-litre bath reservoir, up to 2,5 litres of thermal fluid are available for the external cooling circuit without refilling. An integrated filling funnel and drain valve enable safe, clean handling of the fluid; an optimised bath base ensures complete emptying. Temperature setting and pump speed are shown on a large, easy-to-read LED display, complemented by a clearly visible fill-level indicator. The easily opened front flap provides convenient access for cleaning the air filter. Optical and acoustic warning functions enhance operational safety. This compact unit from manufacturer IKA is well suited to circulating thermostats and cooling baths in research and routine laboratory work.

Questions about RC 2 basic, Recirculating chiller
What is this article?
RC 2 basic, Recirculating chiller is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes IKA for laboratory use. It sits in Circulators, chillers & thermostats, inside Heating, drying & cooling, in Lab instruments.
A circulator or thermostat holds a bath liquid at a set temperature and pumps it through a jacket. A chiller is the same idea aimed below ambient. The temperature range, the cooling power and the pump flow are the three numbers. The fluid has to match the range.
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.
