What Is a Dry Bath Incubator (Heating + Shaking + Cooling)?

This instrument is a multi-functional laboratory device that combines dry bath heating, orbital shaking, and (on model 18101002) active cooling. It replaces separate incubators, shakers, and chillers, saving bench space and reducing sample handling. Used for protein expression (induction at 37°C with shaking), enzyme reactions (37-65°C, mixing), DNA denaturation (95-100°C), and cold storage of samples (down to 4-15°C on 18101002).

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can Hawach dry bath incubators replace Eppendorf ThermoMixer or Thermo Fisher shaking dry baths?

Yes. They are workflow-compatible – same 3 mm orbit, same temperature range, same interchangeable blocks. No method revalidation required.

Q: What is the difference between 18101001 and 18101002?

18101002 includes active cooling (down to RT-20°C) and faster cool-down (100°C-25°C in ≤10 min). Choose 18101002 for protein expression, cold enzyme reactions, or any protocol requiring temperatures below ambient. 18101001 is for heating + shaking only.

Q: How fast does the unit heat up and cool down?

Heats from 25°C to 100°C in ≤12 min (both models). Model 18101002 cools from 100°C to 25°C in ≤10 min, and from room temperature to RT-20°C in ≤15 min.

Q: What tube sizes are compatible?

0.2 mL PCR plates, 0.5 mL, 1.5 mL, 2.0 mL microtubes, 5 mL, 10 mL, 15 mL, 50 mL centrifuge tubes, and 50 mL conical tubes – see module list above.

Q: Can I use the unit without shaking (static incubation)?

Yes – simply set speed to 0 rpm for static heating or cooling.
