Item No.: TDS024 - HotBlock® - 24-Position, StableWeigh TDS HotBlock
The TDS HotBlock provides the perfect solution for the initial evaporation step using StableWeigh vessels for either Total Solids (TS) or Total Dissolved Solids (TDS).
Standard Methods requires an initial evaporation step to remove all liquid from the evaporation vessel prior to placing in a 180ºC oven for the final heating cycle. The unique holes in the TDS HotBlock facilitate the opening of the vessels to ensure thorough evaporation of liquid at a temperature below boiling. Vessels can then be easily removed from the block and placed in a rack for transfer to the 180ºC oven.
For a time-study of evaporation times check out the StableWeigh TDS HotBlock Report.

Question/Answer
Is the TDS024 HotBlock programmable?
It is not programmable. This controller is the same as is found on our regular HotBlocks. You can pick a temperature up to 150°C and it will hold at that temperature for as long as the block is turned on. The block is intended for evaporation of the liquid only. You will still need an oven capable of maintaining 180°C for the second stage of the drying process.
