Dry Block Heaters
Product Code : EL-BLS-10973
Last updated: 6 October 2026
Quick answer: A dry block heater for applications needing temperature stability, taking one or two interchangeable modular blocks fitted without tools. Available in analogue and digital models. Blocks and tube accessories are sold separately.
A dry block heats by conduction from a metal block rather than through water, which removes the evaporation, the contamination and the spill risk of a water bath. The listing states that close tube-to-block contact enables maximum heat retention, which is the mechanism: the heat transfers through the tube wall only where the block touches it, so a block cut for your tube size matters more than the heater itself.
That is the key commercial point here. The heater takes either one or two interchangeable modular blocks, fitted with no tools required, and an assortment of block accessories for tubes of varying sizes is available separately. So the heater alone will not heat anything: the blocks have to be ordered to match the tubes you use. Specify tube size and quantity in the enquiry.
Units come in analogue and digital models, with a painted steel housing and a support rod holder with locking knob, the latter useful for mounting a thermometer or a probe.
No temperature range is published, and for a heater that is the specification. Nor is the temperature stability, the heat-up time or the mains supply. Request all of these, the available block configurations, and the destination voltage before ordering.
