Clifton Water Bath NE1 – 8 Litre (Hydraulic Thermostat, Lockable Dial)

The Clifton Water Bath NE1 8L is a robust and dependable laboratory water bath designed for reliable, everyday heating tasks in educational and quality‑control environments. Constructed with a stainless steel tank housed within a durable outer case, this model offers excellent longevity and resistance to corrosion, making it well suited to busy school science laboratories.

Temperature control is achieved using a straightforward hydraulic thermostat, providing consistent heating across a wide temperature range from ambient +5 °C to 100 °C. The controls include an illuminated on/off switch and a heater‑on indicator, allowing users to quickly and safely confirm operational status. A new lockable temperature control dial helps prevent accidental adjustments during experiments, improving safety and reliability when used by students.

The bath is supplied with a removable stainless steel perforated shelf, ensuring even water circulation and stable support for samples. While the unit will operate up to 100 °C, it is not intended for continuous boiling. For temperatures above 60 °C, a lid or polypropylene spheres are recommended to reduce evaporation and maintain temperature stability.

Featuring an 8‑litre capacity, this model includes a built‑in drain tap for safe and convenient emptying. The water bath is supplied with a reassuring 3‑year manufacturer’s warranty.

External dimensions: 332mm (W) × 270mm (D) × 290mm (H)
Internal dimensions: 300mm (W) × 240mm (D) × 150mm (H)
