Memmert UN160pa: performance and reliability for sample preparation
The Memmert UN160pa is a paraffin oven specially designed to meet the requirements of laboratories, research centres and industrial facilities requiring precise temperature control. With a temperature range from +20 °C to +80 °C and a display accuracy of 0.1 °C, it enables consistent and reproducible heat treatment, which is essential for scientific and analytical applications. Its natural convection system ensures even heat distribution, guaranteeing high-quality results across all samples.
The UN160pa's structure, made of high-quality stainless steel, combines robustness, durability and hygiene. The inner chamber, reinforced by deep ribbing and protected by integrated heating on four sides, offers virtually gas-tight insulation and is easy to clean. Its 161-litre capacity and maximum load of 210 kg allow a large number of samples to be processed simultaneously, while maintaining the thermal stability required for the most stringent protocols.
Control technology and optimised user interface
The UN160pa's ControlCOCKPIT TwinDISPLAY control system provides two high-definition colour screens for clear and intuitive reading of parameters. Digital PID control ensures precise temperature maintenance, while specific functions such as HeatBALANCE, which allows the heat distribution between the upper and lower sections to be adjusted, and SetpointWAIT, which starts the timer only once the target temperature has been reached, enhance process control.
The oven is compatible with AtmoCONTROL software, allowing programmes to be created, managed and transferred via USB or Ethernet. In the event of a power failure, the programme is automatically saved to ensure continuity of operations. The three-point calibration function adds an extra level of precision and adaptability to suit the user's needs.
Safety, versatility and traceability
The Memmert UN160pa incorporates several safety devices, including a mechanical temperature limiter (TB), an overheating control (TWW or TWB) and an AutoSAFETY system that automatically monitors temperature deviations from the set point. Visual and audible alarms immediately alert the user in the event of a malfunction.
Its multilingual interface (German, English, French, Spanish, Italian, Polish, Czech, Hungarian and Chinese) facilitates integration into international environments. The materials used, including textured stainless steel for the exterior and electropolished stainless steel for the grilles, ensure both durability and ease of maintenance.
With its robust design, precise control technology and numerous safety and programming features, the UN160pa is an essential tool for laboratories and industrial sites looking for reliability, thermal control and productivity.
