LEEC P33 Mk 11 Proportional Temperature Controller

• Precise temperature control in laboratory incubators for cell culture and microbiology.
• Maintaining stable thermal environments for pharmaceutical stability testing.
• Controlling temperatures in biotech research for enzyme reactions and sample preservation.
• Use in general laboratory settings requiring accurate thermal regulation for sensitive processes.

Control Type

PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) for stable and accurate temperature regulation.

Temperature Accuracy

Typically ±0.1 °C at 37 °C for this class of controller.

Temperature Range

Commonly controls temperatures from at least 5 °C above ambient up to 60-70 °C, depending on the connected incubator.

Display

Dual digital LED display for target and actual temperatures is standard.

Safety Features

Often includes a digitally adjustable over-temperature safety cut-out with visual indicators and alarms.

Power Supply

Typically operates on a standard single-phase UK mains supply (230V, 50Hz).

• What is the primary function of a proportional temperature controller like the P33 Mk 11?

  Its primary function is to maintain a highly stable and accurate temperature within a connected thermal processing unit, such as an incubator, by precisely regulating heating elements.

• Can this controller be used with any incubator?

• What are the benefits of PID control?

• How do I set the desired temperature on this unit?

• What maintenance is typically required for a temperature controller?

Temperature controllers and thermostats are considered reliable workhorses in laboratory and biotech environments. Buyers typically value precision, stability, and durability when selecting used units. Key considerations include calibration history, age of components, and compatibility with existing systems. Industry sentiment reflects strong demand for established brands known for consistent performance. Used models often deliver good value provided they have been properly maintained and show no signs of sensor drift or control inconsistencies.
