Rapid heating & cooling
High heating and cooling capacity, high-quality insulation and minimal heat loss enable short heating and cooling times. For maximum dynamics and efficiency in every process.
Precise temperature stability
LAUDA Universa guarantees exact temperature constancy down to 0.01 K – for internal and external temperature control. Ideally suited for processes with tight tolerances and the highest quality requirements in static and dynamic applications.
Intelligent safety functions
LAUDA Universa offers comprehensive protection in daily operation: with adjustable overtemperature protection, automatic system diagnostics, acoustic alarm functions and intelligent warning messages. For a high level of safety even in sensitive applications.
Powerful pump
The speed-controlled pressure or pressure-suction pump ensures even temperature distribution – adapted to your application, whether internal or external temperature control. For demanding media such as oils at high temperatures, the pressure-suction pump is also available in a ball bearing version. For even greater operational reliability in continuous operation.
Extra quiet, clean and durable
The speed-controlled technology enables trouble-free, low-noise operation and extends the service life of the compressors - for more quietness and planning reliability in the laboratory.
Modular, intelligent, future-proof
Control heads and base parts can be replaced or upgraded as required. This means that LAUDA Universa grows with your requirements – without you having to buy a complete new one. The built-in electronics are also designed to be future-proof: Its intelligent structure forms the basis for functional updates, digital services, remote maintenance and AI-supported functions.
PATENTED
Bath edge ventilation for condensation-free, clean operation
An innovative, software-controlled ventilation system prevents condensation and vapors from entering the control head. The air is extracted in a targeted manner - for a dry, clean and safe working area. Icing is also reduced, which significantly increases reliability.
PATENTED
Efficient refrigeration technology - speed-controlled compressors, minimal energy consumption, quiet operation
The refrigeration system automatically adjusts the cooling capacity to the requirements of the respective process. Speed-controlled compressors minimize energy consumption – for dynamic temperature control with high precision, quiet operation and a reduced CO₂ footprint.
Our experts will assist you in selecting the right device configuration tailored to your requirements in laboratory, research, or industry.
Efficiency that pays off twice
LAUDA Universa relies on speed-controlled compressors, intelligent refrigeration control and natural refrigerants – for maximum performance with minimum energy consumption. The system is particularly efficient and application-optimized, especially at partial load. The innovative technology not only ensures low power consumption, but also measurably reduces the carbon footprint.
Natural refrigerants – safe & environmentally friendly
All LAUDA Universa refrigerated thermostats use natural refrigerants with an extremely low Global Warming Potential (GWP). The filling quantity remains below 100 grams, even with the most powerful devices. This eliminates the need for complex safety measures or special transportation regulations.
Quiet in operation, strong in occupational safety
The lower housing of the bath features high-quality insulation and a three-part bath edge – for optimum energy efficiency and safe working conditions. Speedcontrolled fans in the chillers also ensure quiet, resourcesaving operation. This promotes focused work in the laboratory and supports occupational safety in noisesensitive environments.
Durable. Modular. Future-proof.
The modular system enables simple repairs, targeted upgrades and the long-term replacement of individual components – all in the interests of a sustainable product life cycle. Regular updates ensure that LAUDA Universa is always at the cutting edge of technology.
Up to 78.8 % energy savings
Thanks to state-of-the-art components, such as a speed-controlled compressor and fan as well as electronic expansion valves, LAUDA Universa significantly reduces energy consumption compared to the market standard. This results in energy savings of between 46.7 % and 78.8 %, depending on the operating mode.
High-precision temperature control for industry, research and development
Internal temperature control: For quality control and calibration
Inline tests require temperature-stable conditions. LAUDA Universa offers a large bath volume for several samples, uniform liquid circulation, and precise temperature stability. Accessories such as lid inserts, baskets, or racks support standard-compliant quality testing in the bath.
For the calibration of sensors, thermometers, or components, LAUDA Universa ensures uniform spatial temperature distribution, stable temperatures over the entire calibration period, and optional cylindrical inserts and weirs for even higher temperature homogeneities.
The result: reproducible calibration values in research, production, and quality assurance.
External temperature control: For reactors and systems
LAUDA Universa bath circulators create ideal conditions for precise temperature control of reactors: a pressure-suction pump ensures high flow rates, while powerful heating and cooling output enables fast attainment of target temperatures.
A particular advantage of the LAUDA Universa MAX devices is the standard Pt100/LiBus interface. It enables direct temperature monitoring in the reactor and precise control of the external temperature – making even sophisticated reactor temperature control systems safe and efficient.
LAUDA Universa bath thermostats are suitable for controlling the temperature of a wide range of systems – from analysis devices to complex systems and machines. They can be flexibly integrated or operated independently. Digital tools like the LAUDA Command App for remote control and monitoring, as well as LAUDA.LIVE Services for data analysis and process optimization, enable wireless control, monitoring, and data analysis – for reliable, safe, and efficient continuous operation.
Accessories and heat transfer liquids: Optimally matched to LAUDA Universa
For maximum safety, efficiency, and compatibility: With matched heat transfer liquids and perfectly fitting accessories, you can get the most out of your LAUDA Universa – whether for high temperatures, special applications, or customized lab setups.
