The Grant QBD series are a versatile range of high quality digital dry block heating systems with excellent temperature control and a wide choice of interchangeable blocks for maximum flexibility.
The outstanding performance of the QBD series is based on advanced digital temperature control combined with high quality, precision-engineered blocks providing excellent thermal contact. The result is accurate, reproducible and safe heating of your samples.
There is a full range of models and options to cater for basic through to more sophisticated applications - choose from three digital systems with 1, 2 or 4 interchangeable blocks (QBD models).
These are complemented by an extensive range of interchangeable heating blocks to accommodate your sample tubes - from our standard range of blocks or tailored to suit your application. In addition, for 2-block systems QBD2, we offer accessory blocks for accommodating microplates and microtube strips.
High power heater for fast heat-up - 25ºC to 100ºC in only 15 minutes.
Simple-to-use rotor plus two keys provide access to the interactive interface for fast, accurate set-up and use
Clear digital display - easy to read from a distance for instant reassurance
Convenient timer facility, with audible buzzer, for reaction timing and function timing, e.g. delayed heater switch-on/turn-off
Wide range of interchangeable blocks enables you to mix and match sample tubes as desired - extraction tool supplied as standard for easy and safe removal of blocks.
Optional safety cover - protects samples from contamination and users from accidental contact with hot blocks
Overtemperature cut-out protects your samples and your workplace
High quality, robust construction in streamlined coolwall aluminium and chemical-resistant plastic - durable in demanding environments
Compact footprint to optimise use of benchspace
Options include blocks for 0.2 ml tubes, strips and 96-well microtitre plates used in molecular biology and biotechnology applications
