Mel-Temp provides precise melting points up to 500°C. Simple manual controls adjust the heating rates. Unit can accept up to three samples simultaneously using glass capillaries. Aluminum casting conducts and radiates heat uniformly to capillaries and thermometer. Heating chamber consists of aluminum heating block which avoids the hazards and mess associated with oil baths. Sample observation is enhanced by an integrated light and precision 6X lens. Three thermometer options are available: mercury thermometer, student digital thermometer or a precision digital thermometer.
