INTRODUCTION
LAB ARMOR BEADS REQUIRED
CS-BB20 bead baths come packaged with 15 liters of aluminum-coated thermal beads. The
manufacturer recommends using this full volume of beads to fill the tank to 1” (25 mm)below the top
of the bath. This level helps hold product containers in place.
Never fill the unit with water or oil. The bath tank is not watertight and filling the tank with liquid will
damage the heating elements and other electrical components, and voids the manufacturing defect
warranty
The beads are designed to maximize thermal conductivity while still allowing ease of placement for
product. When operating at your setpoint, the beads are highly resistant to temperature fluctuations,
providing optimal temperature stability and uniformity.
Bead baths and traditional water baths have slight operational differences. See page 33 for a more
detailed explanation.
