Ice makers: Recommendations and care
Ice makers are machines that make ice from moving water, as opposed to the traditional method of making ice, where the water is frozen. They are very useful equipment in the health and research sector, so it is essential to carry out proper maintenance and follow a series of steps to care for them.
Drying ovens or ovens: Are they sterilizers?
The oven or also called drying oven is a piece of equipment used to dry and sterilize glass and metal containers. It achieves this, thanks to the fact that inside the temperature is higher than in the environment. According to its mode of operation, there are basically two types of oven: those that operate by natural convection and those that operate by forced convection.
Laminar flow hoods: What are the best known brands?
A laminar flow hood is a highly specialized laboratory equipment that provides a sterile and safe area or zone within the laboratory, to carry out any activity that is required. This equipment constitutes a space with a specific air treatment, which provides an area with a strict control of non-road particles.
What is a laboratory heating blanket?
The heating blanket is a laboratory device that is equipped with a flexible, insulated and comfortable heating device that allows containers or containers to be positioned inside them, without those made of glass running the risk of breaking.
What is a laboratory magnetic stirrer?
A magnetic stirrer is laboratory equipment that uses a rotating magnetic field to mix one or more solutes with a solvent in an automated way. It is considered the most widely used type of stirrer, since it is silent, efficient and does not have direct contact with the sample.
The Vortexes at Kalstein
A vortex is a device used in laboratories to mix small vials of liquid. It consists of an electric motor with a vertically oriented drive shaft attached to a slightly mounted recessed rubber part.
Freeze dryers in pharmaceutical companies
Freeze drying has become a standard practice in the pharmaceutical industry, since the beginning of its first applications around the 40’s. Since then, the freeze dryer has gone from being a simple vacuum drying equipment to become a highly sophisticated system and integrated, which combines a series of processes to guarantee a systematic production according to technical and biological specifications.
Qu’est-ce qu’une équipe multiparamètre?
A multiparameter equipment is a device that allows measuring various variables in the water simultaneously, from a single sample, between said variables we can mention: pH, ORP, ion concentration, conductivity, total dissolved solids (TDS), salinity, Resistivity and dissolved oxygen. This equipment is very useful for laboratory processes and suitable environments for analysis, for the monitoring of water quality in rivers, lakes, swimming pools, water treatment plants and effluent treatment.
What do we use water purifiers for in a laboratory?
Pure water in laboratories is more than a necessity, it is considered an essential element, which is why the purification of water in laboratories is considered a fundamental process, and this is achieved through specialized equipment called a water purifier.
Turbidimeter – Units of Measurement
A turbidimeter is a laboratory device used to measure the turbidity of a liquid. These equipments can also establish the size and concentration of the particles that are placed in suspension through the diffusion of light in a tube.
