In-line solution heating has proven to be one of the most effective methods of maintaining the temperature of perfusion solutions. The SC-20 Dual In-line Solution Heater/Cooler utilizes Peltier thermoelectric devices to regulate temperature both above and below ambient levels.

The SC-20 is designed to thermally regulate one or two solutions at the same temperature. Solution temperatures can be maintained at 0°C at flow rates of 2 ml/min., 5°C at 5 ml/min., or as high as 50°C at 5ml/min. An integral water jacket is used to remove excess heat from the SC-20. Running water from a tap or a large reservoir can be used. Flow rates as low as 4 liters per hour are sufficient to maintain cooling efficiency.

The SC-20 can be used with either one or two discrete perfusate solutions, or with a solution/gas combination. When coupled with a PHC Series Imaging Chamber Heater/Cooler Jacket, the SC-20 provides an effective means of temperature control in the chamber, even in the absence of solution flow.

Each heater/cooler is supplied with a TA-29 Thermistor Cable Assembly for monitoring the bath temperature.
