Re: Fixing a laboratory waterbath
It's meant to be on for long periods of time. Sometimes 10 hours. We have another waterbath (same model but without a display) that I use all day long at 80 °C for protein gelation. I have checked the heatsink of that one and I d say it's more or less as hot.
The heating is probably as fast as before. Again comparing with the other waterbath which takes at least an hour to get to 80 °C. I didnt thoroughly compare but 20 °C in 20 min is reasonable. It holds I would say close to 10L of the antifreeze/water mixture which is a lot to heat up.
I dont know how to tell if it's fake but I trust the supplier. They re the go-to place for electronics. I m not too worried about it. If it stops working I ll get one from another store.
