The full programmable ThermoStar 100 has simple digital controls and a two-line alphanumeric display that is backlit for easy reading.
The display normally shows the target and actual temperatures.
Additionally, it is used to display temperature, timer, and all programming functions.
The integrated timer supports time-sensitive incubations with a acoustic signal and a out-off function.
For an easy handling, the thermostat is full programmable and can be control via brand new software Q.mate via PC.
22 different exchangeable thermo blocks for almost all established sample containers ensure effective heat transfer and the flexibility to adapt to your particular application.
To set a target temperature, simply push the up or down arrows until the display shows the desired target temperature.
The unit will then go to that temperature.
Writing programs is simple as well and done through the up and down arrows on the membrane switch.
