Lovibond TC 720 S thermostat cabinet with steel door
The Lovibond TC 720 S thermostat cabinet with steel door is tailored to the flexible storage of temperature-sensitive samples and the precise determination of biological oxygen demand (BOD). Thanks to its powerful cooling and heating system, combined with a precise control system, the desired temperature can be regulated to within 0.1 °C. The appliance thus combines state-of-the-art technology and user-friendliness in a robust, energy-efficient system. Similar equipment options are offered by the [Lovibond TC 160 S] thermostat oven, which also scores with reliable temperature management for laboratory and industrial applications.
Detailed features and functions
The system covers a range from +2 °C to +40 °C and is therefore suitable for a variety of demanding applications in laboratories and industrial operations. A convenient LED display provides precise information about the selected and current internal temperature at all times. The integrated temperature control unit complies with the EMC directive IEC 61326, which stands for a high level of safety and reliability. Highly efficient components and reinforced insulation are used to ensure particularly low operating costs.
In addition, several internal sockets provide additional flexibility when using external analysis systems or measuring devices. The device shows its strengths particularly in waste water analysis laboratories, where BOD determinations have to be carried out at a constant 20 °C, for example. The robust steel door is a durable solution in an industrial environment that reliably withstands high loads.
Technical highlights
- Temperature range: +2 °C to +40 °C, adjustable in 0.1 °C increments
- Energy consumption: approx. 1.26 kWh/24 h
- Usable capacity: 488 liters, 4 slide-in grids
- Climate class: 5 (+10 °C to +40 °C)
- Coolant: R600a for environmentally friendly cooling

The operating unit with two buttons with tactile feedback in a water-protected foil front makes setting and monitoring easier. Thanks to a load capacity of 60 kg per shelf, even heavy sample vessels can be placed safely. As the cabinet cannot be placed underneath, it is best suited for stand-alone installations with sufficient space. The dimensions of 750 × 1684 × 769 mm (WxHxD) nevertheless ensure efficient use of space in laboratories or production areas.
Certifications and standards
The thermostat cabinet is CE-certified and complies with the IEC 61326 directive for electrical appliances. These standards guarantee that all safety and quality requirements are met. This increases reliability in continuous use and safety in demanding working environments
Application examples
- BOD determination in wastewater laboratories: With an exact 20 °C setting, the device is often used to determine biochemical oxygen depletion.
- Microbiological order tests in the food and beverage industry: thanks to stable temperatures, bacterial counts or growth tests can be carried out reliably.
- Research and development in the pharmaceutical industry: The device is ideal for storing temperature-sensitive samples or test series, e.g. for stability tests.
- Quality control in chemical plants: Sensitive chemicals and intermediate products remain well protected thanks to precise control.
FAQs
How precise is the temperature control
The temperature can be set to an accuracy of 0.1 °C and remains constant over the entire measurement period. An illuminated LED display shows the setpoint and actual value at all times.
Which substances can be stored?
In principle, all substances that require a temperature range of +2 °C to +40 °C. Typical examples include chemical and biochemical reagents, microbiological culture media and food samples.
Can external measuring devices be operated indoors?
Yes, thanks to the nine integrated power connections, measuring or analysis devices can be used directly in the cabinet without having to run cables through the door.
How energy efficiency is ensured
Reinforced insulation, the use of energy-optimized components and the environmentally friendly refrigerant R600a guarantee low consumption of around 1.26 kWh in 24 hours.
Is the door lockable?
The steel door has a robust outer structure, but no special locking system is integrated. However, depending on the model variant, a lock can be retrofitted if required.
Conclusion
This thermostat provides reliable and energy-efficient operation for industry, research and laboratory applications where a constant and precisely adjustable temperature is crucial. It impresses with its spacious internal volume, user-friendly operation and durable construction. Even in demanding environments, samples and reagents remain optimally and safely stored. If you need a versatile thermostatic cabinet with permanently constant performance and a wide range of applications, this is a future-proof choice.
