Abstract
A temperature-control device for receiving of laboratory vessels has a hollow housing with a temperature-control medium. The temperature-control device is thermally conditioned before use, and during use, the conditioned thermal energy is, in a finite time period, either absorbed from the laboratory vessels or transferred to same. The lower part of the housing has a base and the upper part of the housing has, opposite to said base, a receiving region which, in an upward direction, delimits the hollow internal region of the housing. In the receiving region, depressions directed inward serve as receivers for the laboratory vessels to be temperature-controlled. The hollow housing has an air space separated from the internal region. In the internal region, the temperature-control medium flows at least partially around and/or through a horizontally extending absorber element, and said absorber element is connected to the receiving region in thermally conductive manner.
