Cooling Baths

Cooling Baths

Bhanu Scientific Glass Co. provides high-performance cooling baths for temperature-sensitive processes, ensuring precise and uniform cooling for laboratory, pilot, and industrial applications. Our cooling baths are ideal for glass reactors, cylindrical vessels, and other process vessels where controlled temperature reduction is critical.

Cooling baths are designed to maintain a stable, low-temperature environment around the vessel or reaction mixture. They utilize circulating coolant fluids (water, glycol, or other thermal fluids) to achieve precise temperature control, which is essential for exothermic reactions, condensation, and heat-sensitive processes.

Key Highlights:

• Material: Stainless steel or corrosion-resistant alloy bath
• Cooling mechanism: External or integrated circulation of coolant
• Capacity: Suitable for vessels from 5 L to 500 L
• Temperature range: Typically from -20°C to +25°C (customizable)
• Applications: Chemical synthesis, pharma, biotechnology, and fine chemicals

Design Features

• Uniform cooling: Circulating fluid ensures consistent temperature distribution across the vessel
• Digital temperature control: High-accuracy controllers with displays
• Integrated insulation: Minimizes heat gain from ambient environment
• Flexible design: Accommodates different vessel sizes and shapes
• Safety features: Overcooling protection and fluid containment
• Support frame: Sturdy, corrosion-resistant frame for vessel stability

Key Benefits

• Precise temperature management for sensitive reactions

FAQs

Q1: What fluids can be used in the cooling bath?
A: Typically water, glycol, or other compatible thermal fluids depending on the desired temperature range.

Q2: Can the bath handle multiple vessels at once?
A: Yes, with proper frame design and spacing, multiple vessels can be accommodated.

Q3: What is the temperature control precision?
A: Digital controllers allow ±1°C stability in most standard setups.

Q4: Are cooling baths compatible with vacuum vessels?
A: Yes, provided vessel mounting is stable and connections are secure.

Q5: Can the bath be customized for extreme low temperatures?
A: Absolutely, custom low-temperature baths can be designed with refrigerants or advanced cooling fluids.
