Affordable Controlled Heating and Cooling of Round Bottom Flasks

Radleys has launched Breeze, a low cost temperature control system designed to deliver rapid heating and cooling of reactions from -30°C to +165°C. Offering a safer, cleaner and more efficient alternative to using oil or water baths and heating mantles, using the Breeze in conjunction with a Heat-On block combines to deliver a new level of temperature control of reactions carried out in single round bottom flasks from 10ml to 5 litres.

Combining a Breeze with standard Heat-On block and suitable thermoregulator replaces the need for separate cooling reservoir, oil bath or heating mantle, creating a compact, powerful, integrated reaction system - saving space, time and money.

Benefiting from a small internal volume - Breeze is quick to respond to changes in thermofluid temperature making it ideal for solution controlled experiments such as crystallisations that require a precise temperature profile.

The integral stand and support rods facilitates simple, secure and safe setting up of Heat-On blocks and attachment of an overhead stirrer, creating a neat alternative to small reaction set-ups. The integral stand also acts as a drip tray for any condensation that may occur when the system is used at sub-ambient temperatures.

Heat-On blocks are easy to set-up and offer safe temperature control of flask contents providing significant improvements in productivity. Manufactured from solid aluminium, Heat-On blocks provide even heat transfer to the entire flask, preventing hot spots.

Heat-On blocks feature a unique deep well shape proven to avoid sticking and cracking of flasks and also maximising the heating surface area further contributing to faster heat-up. Heat-On blocks also feature a fluoropolymer coating providing excellent chemical resistance.
