1-Channel Low-noise Cooling controller

Can be used with temperature controlled microscope stages, heated and cooled

Low electrical noise, heating and cooling temperature controller for microscope stages

  • External Bath probes (optional) and internal Stage temperature sensor
  • Automatically switches from Heating to Cooling
  • Over-heating protection prevents damage to your sample
  • Does not introduce electrical noise during recordings
  • Standby mode
  • Plastic-encapsulated external probes: no metal ions leakage into solutions

Most heating and cooling stages work as inline solution pre-heaters. Can be used with flow control and perfusion systems. Includes connecting cables. An external temperature probe might be needed, to monitor bath temperature for example

Programmable 2-Channel Bipolar Precision High Stability Temperature Controller BTC-2-100, Low Electrical Noise

Can be used with temperature controlled microscope stages

Provides higher stability required for some sensitive applications, nano / piezo positioning, confocal or AFM imaging for example. Flexible controls for stable operation and easy to use through the graphical touch-screen. Up to four steps (or ramps) can be programmed (8 steps if only one channel is used)

  • No drift due to high stability, 0.01°C.
  • No vibrations during imaging and recording - no internal fan
  • Plastic-encapsulated external probes: no metal ions leakage into solutions
  • Automatic cooling
  • Self-tuning, no adjustments are required
  • Multiple temperature sensors to choose for feedback, STAGE and BATH
  • Built-in overheating protection
  • Inputs for programmed temperature changes
  • Analog and Digital Outputs to monitor and SET temperature, RS232 port
  • Digital interface for software control
  • No electrical noise - suitable for electrophysiology

Can be used with objective heaters and with perfusion systems: most heating stages work as inline solution pre-heaters
