Provides accurate temperature control in a variety of laboratory applications.
The general purpose Temperature Controller (TC) provides accurate temperature control in a variety of laboratory applications. Combined with a heat lamp or heating pad, the TC Unit may be used to maintain the body temperature of anesthetized animals during surgery or stereotaxic procedures. Small animal cages are easily warmed with a heat lamp. Realizing that laboratory applications are diverse, Stoelting can provide several versions of the TC.The model specified depends on whether a laboratory has a general or specific need for the controller:
This version controls only powered heating or cooling devices such as a heat lamp. It is the least costly.
This model provides a low voltage DC output for electrically sensitive applications where frequencies might interfere with other monitoring devices. It comes standard with a built in DC power supply designed to operate with our Heat Plate for small rodents.
This is a combination version which includes both an outlet for controlling primarily resistance loads such as heat lamps and a low-voltage, low noise DC output for heat plate. This version allows you to control a variety of different loads.
All TC versions may be used with any of our extensive line of accurate Type T thermocouple probes, which act as the temperature feedback sensor. Most commonly used are the animal rectal probes that we offer:
