FALC's sand baths are ideal for the homogenous heating of the contents in the baths. The external structure is made of steel which has been oven coated with acid-resistant epoxy paint whilst the inner tanks are made of extra thick 304 stainless steel. The whole structure is insulated with a 40 mm thick layer of ceramic fibre which ensures that the temperature outside the apparatus remains at room temperature. Heating is provided by iron-clad stainless steel heating elements. Temperature regulation and control are provided by a bimetallic temperature regulation on a numbered scale. An illuminated green ON/OFF switch is provided as standard.
