Flexible. Modular. Intuitive. The smart dry block heater that grows with your lab

06 May, 2026

Velp ECODryBlock is designed to redefine how laboratories approach sample heating, delivering uniform, stable, and controlled temperature conditions without compromises. 

Traditional water and oil baths have long been used for heating applications, but they introduce complexity: liquid handling, routine maintenance, safety concerns, and contamination risks. 

Dry block heaters addressed these limitations by enabling direct heat transfer through high-conductivity metal blocks, eliminating liquids, speeding up heating, improving precision, and creating a cleaner, safer, and easier workflow.

Now, ECODryBlock takes this concept even further.

  • Flexible: Interchangeable blocks support a wide range of vessels, including vials, microcentrifuge tubes, PCR tubes and strips, microplates, and cuvettes.
  • Modular: A single ControlPad manages up to two independent heating modules, each accommodating two blocks.  
  • Intuitive: A touchscreen interface enables straightforward setting of temperature and timing parameters, ensuring full control with minimal effort.  

Precision for Every Assay

In life science laboratories, temperature accuracy directly impacts reproducibility. Even small deviations can influence assay reliability and experimental outcomes.

For this reason, ECODryBlock delivers stable and uniform heating performance:

  • ±0.2 °C stability and uniformity at 37 °C
  • ±0.4 °C stability and uniformity at 60 °C

These conditions support a wide range of applications, including PCR, cDNA synthesis, enzyme reactions, DNA/RNA hybridization, and protein studies. The system is equally suited for routine laboratory activities such as sample preparation, as well as clinical workflows like microbial culture incubation and blood sample handling.

By ensuring controlled and repeatable thermal conditions, ECODryBlock helps laboratories maintain consistency across assays and workflows.

Upgrade Your Sample Heating Workflow

ECODryBlock is more than just a dry block heater. It integrates precision, modularity, and intuitive operation into a single platform, supporting more efficient and reliable laboratory processes.

It enables laboratories to move away from complex, maintenance-intensive systems toward a cleaner and more streamlined approach to sample heating

  • Say goodbye to messy water baths or outdated dry block heaters.
  • Say hello to clean, efficient, and reliable sample heating
