Applications
Boiling water baths like the American Dade W3022 are standard equipment in clinical, hospital, and research laboratories. They are used to heat samples, reagents, and glassware to 100°C for procedures such as inactivating complement in serum, preparing bacteriological media, performing serological tests, and denaturing proteins. American Dade was a well-known manufacturer of laboratory and clinical diagnostic equipment as a division of American Hospital Supply Corporation, and their water baths were widely used in hospital and clinical laboratory settings from the 1960s through the 1980s. This unit is compatible with standard US 110–120V outlets and requires no special wiring.
This American Dade W3022 Boiling Water Bath has been pulled from a working laboratory environment and is in good used condition overall. The brown steel housing shows light scuffing and surface soiling consistent with normal lab use.

The front-panel On/Off rocker switch and Water Level Alarm indicator are present and intact. The attached power cord and NEMA 5-15P plug are included and appear to be in good condition.
