The Huber Petite Fleur, Ministat and Minichiller are environmentally friendly and cost-effective thermoregulation machines charged with natural refrigerants, perfectly suited for laboratories, being eco-friendly, with small dimensions and boasting low investment costs.
Preserving natural resources and protecting the environment is an important obligation. Small and simple changes in design can result in effective and positive contributions to preserving the environment. A simple but effective change has been made by Huber — technical modifications that allow the use of alternative, environmentally friendly refrigerants.
The Huber Petite Fleur, Ministat and Minichiller are environmentally friendly thermoregulation solutions with low running costs. They are offered with the natural hydrocarbone refrigerant propane R290 as standard. R290 has no significant global warming potential (GWP) and no ozone depilation potential (ODP). The refrigerant has an unlimited availability worldwide so is easy to source. Also, most notably, it provides the same performance as synthetic, conventional refrigerants.
According to the company, Ministat is the smallest cooling circulator in the world. It allows temperature control of objects directly in the bath or to thermoregulate external applications. It has enough power to thermoregulate photometers, refractometers, viscosimeters, distillation apparatus, reactor vessels and mini plants. Three models are available with working temperatures from -45 to +200˚C.
The compact Minichiller is a space saving, environmentally friendly and economic cooling solution for laboratory applications. It is suitable for cooling of reactor blocks, vapour traps, vacuum pumps, rotary evaporators and heat exchangers. It ensures constant temperatures and highly efficient condensation of flow through vapours. The Minichiller is designed for continuous operation in ambient temperatures up to +40 °C.
The Petite Fleur, with a working temperature of -40 to +200˚C, is the smallest, hydraulically sealed dynamic temperature control system in the Unistat series and ideally suited to controlling small research reactors. It has exceptional thermodynamic properties and is reportedly unrivaled when it comes to responsive temperature control.
All three machines can be placed on the benchtop, in cabinets or integrated into automated systems. They are fitted with the new touchscreen controller Pilot ONE and operation is via a coloured 5.7” TFT display with intuitive menu icons, prompts and full text menu guidance in 11 languages.
