Applications
Laboratory water baths like the Precision Scientific 184 are standard equipment in life science, chemistry, clinical, and industrial lab settings. They are used to maintain samples, reagents, cultures, or substrates at a stable, controlled temperature — common applications include warming buffers and media, running enzyme incubations, performing serological tests, sample digestion, and thawing biological materials. The 0–100°C range covers the full spectrum of typical aqueous work, from near-ambient incubation up to near-boiling temperatures. Precision Scientific (later part of GCA Corporation) was a well-known Chicago-based manufacturer of laboratory instruments throughout the mid-to-late twentieth century; their water baths were widely used in university, hospital, and industrial labs across North America. Units of this generation and style remain practical and serviceable for general bench use today.
This Precision Scientific 184 heated water bath has been inspected and is in good working condition — it powers on and heats up normally. The protective lid is not included. The stainless steel bath interior shows mineral/scale deposits consistent with normal lab use; the exterior blue housing shows light wear and minor scuffing. The immersion heating element is present. Power cord is included. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
