Thermodynamics in Perfection
The PRESTO© family continues to grow. JULABO has launched two additional highly dynamic temperature control systems: the PRESTO© A80 and W80.
JULABO introduces the newest members of the completely redesigned PRESTO© family: the A80 and W80. They unite high efficiency and unsurpassed performance for modern laboratories. Both instruments cover a working temperature range from -80 °C to +250 °C, offer 1,2 kW cooling capacity and 1,8 kW heating capacity. They are robust and work reliably even at increased room temperatures up to +40 °C. Highly efficient components permit the extremely fast compensation of exothermic and endothermic reactions.
The powerful, maintenance-free pumps provide up to 1.7 bar and pump up to 40 l/min max. They guarantee high flow rates at consistent pressure and dynamically adjust to viscosity changes of bath fluids. The required pump capacity can be adjusted in four stages or a pre-programmed pressure value.
A special characteristic of the new PRESTO is the interactive user guidance via an integrated 5.7'' industrial color touch screen. All important information is displayed with a clear structure. The touch screen function facilitates easy operation even when wearing gloves.
Extensive interfaces permit flexible application in laboratories with remote control via an Ethernet network, wireless control with JULABO's WirelessTEMP solution or integration into control systems.
Many features of the new PRESTO instruments make day-to-day laboratory life easier. Just to name a few: the filling opening is easily accessible on the top; They operate as quiet as a whisper and are barely heard in a laboratory; Like every JULABO unit the PRESTO has closed sides without venting slits reducing the required floor space to a minimum. Other laboratory equipment can be placed closely to the new PRESTO.
With competent advice, JULABO staff consults directly with customer to specify suitable solutions choosing from additional services to guarantee that every user of JULABO instruments has the optimal temperature control solution. JULABO supports its customer in installation and calibration, supplies documents for equipment qualification and operational training ensuring that the user can operate their JULABO unit quickly and safely for a long time.

JULABO invests in new Headquarters for US Subsidiary
In June JULABO opened its new headquarters of the US subsidiary in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
Supported by the Lehigh Valley Area Chamber of Commerce the opening of the new, state-of-the art facility of the JULABO subsidiary in North America was celebrated with many guests. Informative guided tours and lectures provided a comprehensive overview of the individual departments, the innovative product range with their varied applications. As a surprise guests were served culinary delicacies prepared in the sous vide method. As the highlight of the event Ralph Juchheim, President of JULABO USA Inc., officially opened the new office with a symbolic red ribbon cutting.
The modern building with state-of-the-art technology is optimally organized and houses the production, technical service and quality control departments, inventory, shipping and receiving area, training rooms as well as the entire administration under one roof. The workflow oriented lay-out facilitates streamlined processes in the entire company.
In 1993 JULABO USA Inc. was established as JULABO’s first subsidiary abroad and today employs a staff of more than 30 people.
Thermodynamic Power
The new PRESTO® from JULABO represents the state-of-the-art for modern laboratories. The first models in this redesigned line of temperature-control instruments are the air-cooled A30 and A40 as well as the water-cooled W40. These instruments cover a working temperature range of -40 to +250 °C with 1.2 kW of cooling capacity and 2.7 kW of heating capacity. Maximum heating capacity can also be adapted to fluctuations in the mains power supply. Highly efficient components give these instruments the ability to compensate for exothermic and endothermic reactions with extraordinary speed. The new PRESTO® units are extremely robust and work reliably even if the ambient temperature climbs as high as +40 °C.
Magnetically-coupled pumps in the PRESTO® units are powerful and maintenance-free. Lab users benefit from high flow rates, constant pressure, and a controlled build-up of pump pressure. The pump in the A30 has a rated pressure of 0.5 bar and a maximum flow rate of 25 Lpm. The A40 and W40 have more powerful pumps with pressure up to 1.7 bar and a flow rate as high as 40 Lpm. The operator can adjust pump capacity by selecting one of four stages or by entering a specific pressure. The closed pumping loop isolates the heat transfer liquid from ambient air, preventing penetration of moisture and oxidation.
The integrated 5.7-inch industrial color TFT touch screen is one of the identifying characteristics of the new PRESTO®. It gives the user a clear and well-organized view of important information while greatly improving user-friendliness. Fingertip control via the new touchscreen makes it incredibly easy to operate the new PRESTO® units.
Password management for one administrator and up to two additional levels of authorization makes it easier to manage laboratory procedures.
For example, the new PRESTO® units use one and the same heat transfer liquid across the entire working temperature range. The filling opening for the liquid is easily accessible on the top side of the unit.
Once in operation, the new PRESTO® units are whisper quiet and barely audible in a laboratory. Like all JULABO instruments, the new PRESTOs® have closed side panels without ventilation slits. This reduces to a minimum the amount of space needed to operate the units because any other lab instruments may be placed directly next to the PRESTO®.
A retractable handle and integrated rollers make it easy for one person to move the new PRESTO® like a wheeled cart.
Multiple interfaces permit remote control of the PRESTO® across networks and in superordinated control systems. The integrated Ethernet interface provides complete access to all of PRESTO®’s operating functions.
Yet another control option is the USB interface, a first in dynamic temperature control systems. When combined with the proven JULABO WirelessTEMP solution, it permits completely wireless control of the instrument.
German quality, local support
JULABO instruments are reliable. They comply with stringent national, European, and international standards as well as specific requirements at the place of operation. JULABO units complete numerous tests during every phase of production. A comprehensive quality management system according to the directives of DIN EN ISO 9001 ensures that all products leave the factory in a technically flawless condition.
JULABO customers can depend on competent pre-sales support and access to additional services that ensure they always receive the most optimal solution to their temperature-control needs. JULABO offers its customers installation and calibration services, documentation for instrument qualification, and user training so users can start using their instruments right away and benefit from years of safe operation.

circulators with natural refrigerants.

May 11, 2009 Highly Dynamic Temperature Control
Systems
JULABO’s new product series „Presto PLUS“ offers highly
dynamic temperature control systems for demanding, external
temperature control. „Presto PLUS“ systems are used primarily
for the temperature control of jacketed reaction vessels,
autoclaves and reactor systems. The large heating and cooling
capacities combined with state-of-the-art control technology and
small liquid volumes provide short heat-up and cool-down times
for fast compensation of exothermic and endothermic reactions.
The closed-system design permits a wide range of working
temperatures without changing the bath fluid while at the same
time preventing fumes and odors. The closed-system prevents the
oxidation of bath fluid resulting in a prolonged bath fluid
lifetime when compared with open air circulators. This feature
also prevents condensation and ice build-up at low working
temperatures. The „Presto PLUS“ series includes 6 models in
different performance classes with cooling capacities up to 7
kW, heating capacities up to 6 kW and pump capacities up to 30
l/min. Working temperatures range from -80 to 250 °C depending

May 11, 2009 EasyTEMP Software: Version 3.0 now
available
A new version of the JULABO Software EasyTEMP is now available.
The new software program controls and monitors JULABO
temperature control instruments via PC. The software offers
varied functions to view and record temperature, and time
dependant processes. The new version (3.0) was completely
revised. The connection to laboratory instruments can be
established not only via RS232/RS485 and profibus but also
wirelessly. The EasyTEMP ‘Professional’ software supports the
new WirelessTEMP products. Wireless communication can be easily
established with the USB stick inserted into the PC and a
transmitter connected to the JULABO instrument. The operating
interface of the software was improved. Now each connected
instrument has its own window with individual settings and its
own diagram function for graphic display of measurement values.
If required the measurement values can be saved and evaluated,
for example in Microsoft Excel™. The programmer for temperature
profiles can be set down to the second and supports the
realization in an endless loop. The behavior characteristics of
each unit after the run of a profile can now be set individually.
As an additional improvement temperatures now can be changed
from Celsius (°C) to Fahrenheit (°F) independently from the
connected equipment. The EasyTEMP software is available in two
version; the basic version of EasyTEMP supports applications
