Julabo has introduced a new generation of refrigerated and heating circulators. The new circulators of the Corio series will replace the successful Economy series models and will give users improved performance specifications, expanded functionality, and even greater value for their money. Julabo circulators are used worldwide for applications in research, science, laboratories, pilot plants, and the process industry.
The new Corio series are completely redesigned and will simplify daily work and routine tasks in laboratories, such as during basic research or materials testing. The new series includes a variety of models ranging from immersion circulators, open bath circulators, heating circulators as well as powerful refrigerated circulators. They meet the high expectations customers have for accuracy, reliability, and ease of use.
An intuitive operating concept permits rapid configuration of all models for the intended use. The displays are bright and easily readable from long distances. The new Corio units contain several new functions as well. Models are suitable for standard internal applications and are provided with a redesigned, more robust bath clamp. All units are designed for standard internal and external applications. New features on these models include a USB connection and the ability to continually toggle the pump between internal and external circulation directly under the display. Both models, Corio C and Corio CD, are extremely quiet in operation and can be easily adapted to various international power supplies thanks to an exchangeable power cable.
The bath circulators are delivered with the customer’s choice of either a high quality transparent or stainless steel bath. All closed baths are equipped with a redesigned bath cover and an easy-to-use drain tap. Corio refrigerated circulators deliver greater cooling capacity. Conveniently located mains power switches make it easy to switch the circulator and cooling machine on and off. When in operation, the circulator fully controls the functionality of the attached cooling unit. The redesigned cooling units have no side ventilation openings. This advantage is common in Julabo units and saves space on the laboratory bench. An extensive range of accessories, such as inserts, tubes, adapters, and more ensures that Corio units are readily adaptable to individual applications.
