Alpha RA 8: Precision and reliability for your thermal applications
The LAUDA Alpha RA 8 is a laboratory cooling thermostat designed to meet the basic requirements of temperature control in scientific, industrial and pharmaceutical environments. Thanks to its integrated cooling technology, it enables precise temperature control in a range from -25 °C to +100 °C, while ensuring thermal stability of ±0.05 K.
This model is equipped with a continuous electronic controller, a single-line LED display for viewing the actual or setpoint temperature, and an intuitive three-key menu, making it easy to use even for novice users. The stainless steel bath guarantees excellent durability and corrosion resistance, while the integrated circulation pump ensures even temperature distribution in the bath or to external applications.
The cooling system is based on an intelligent compressor that only activates when necessary, reducing energy consumption and extending the compressor's service life. This energy-saving principle is particularly advantageous for laboratories concerned about their energy footprint.
The RA 8 is also equipped with low-level and overheating protection, ensuring optimum safety when used with non-flammable liquids such as water or water/glycol mixtures. In the event of a fault, visual and audible alarms immediately alert the user.
The compact design of the RA 8 (235 x 500 x 605 mm) allows for easy integration into laboratory benches, while offering a bath volume of 5 to 7.5 litres. The drain connection at the rear facilitates maintenance and replacement of the heat transfer fluid.
This thermostat is ideal for applications such as:
- preparing samples for chemical or pharmaceutical analyses,
- temperature control in medical fields (serology),
- thermostatisation tasks in biotechnology.
The LAUDA Alpha RA 8 combines reliability, ease of use and energy efficiency, making it an essential choice for laboratories looking for high-performance, economical temperature control equipment.
