Cannon™ CT-500 Constant-Temperature Bath

Description

• Two electric heating elements rapidly heat bath medium to any desired temperature within the operating range Built-in cooling coil, when connected to tap water or cooling system (not included), permits operation at or near ambient temperature† Selector switch on the front panel facilitates rapid setting of ten temperatures for kinematic viscosity determinations: 20°, 25°, 30°, 40°, 50°, 60°, 70°, 80°, 90°, and 100°C After setting, the bath will equilibrate to within a fraction of 1° of the desired temperature Separate fine-tuning control allows temperature adjustment to within ±0.01°C VARIABLE setting on the front panel sets any temperature within the operating range Cylindrical 17L (4 1/2 gal.) clear glass bath chamber vessel measures 12 H × 12 in

• (30.5 × 30.5cm) Stainless-steel baffle in the center provides a plain reflective background for viewing instruments Top cover has seven 2 in
• (5.1cm) holes for viscometer holders Two additional 3/8 in
• (1cm) holes accommodate thermometers Safety features include a bath thermistor that senses any overtemperature fault condition If such a condition occurs, all power is removed from the bath until an operator resets the overtemperature limit circuit A liquid-level sensor prevents the control circuit from heating the bath until a safe operating level is obtained Power is also removed from bath heaters if the control thermistor is disconnected Compliance ASTM™ D 445
