Why Heat & Cool vs Heat Only
| Feature | H2200-H Heat-Only | H2200-HC Heat & Cool (this product) |
| Heating | Yes (ambient +5 to 60 °C) | Yes |
| Cooling | No | Yes — down to -15 °C |
| Temperature range | Ambient +5 to 60 °C | -15 to 60 °C |
| Sub-ambient workflows | Limited (cold-room only) | Full bench-resident |
| List price | $987.00 | $987 |
| Premium for cooling | — | +$338 |
Pick the H2200-HC Heat & Cool when:
- Sub-ambient sample storage during workflow (RNA-prep cold-hold, enzyme cold-storage between use)
- Cold-cycle workflows at the personal-incubator scale (16 °C bacterial cold-shock, 4 °C antibody storage)
- Cold-room workflow consolidation — bring sub-ambient incubation to the bench
- Method-development workflows spanning sub-ambient through 60 °C on a single chassis
Stay with H2200-H Heat-Only ($987.00) for above-ambient-only workflows — saves $338 when sub-ambient capability isn't required.
Frequently Asked Questions
How cold can the H2200-HC go? Down to -15 °C, giving a full range of -15 °C to 60 °C including sub-ambient cooling.
How does the H2200-HC differ from the H2200-H? The H2200-H is heat-only (ambient +5 to 60 °C, $987.00). The H2200-HC adds cooling to -15 °C ($987) — a $338 premium — bringing sub-ambient incubation to the bench.
How many shelves are included? Two. An extra shelf (H2200-SH) is $52.
What voltage does the H2200-HC use? A single universal-voltage chassis rated 100–240 V, 50–60 Hz.
Ordering & Configuration
Confirm sub-ambient ramp time with Benchmark Scientific tech support — sub-ambient temperatures take longer to reach than above-ambient.
Plan ventilation clearance for refrigeration heat dissipation.
Confirm at quote: voltage / plug type, intended sub-ambient workflow, shelf inventory, ventilation clearance, and lead time.
Warranty: Per Benchmark Scientific standard capital-equipment terms.
