JP Selecta technology in laboratory ovens

Each laboratory oven incorporates high-end components that guarantee repeatability, durability and regulatory compliance in demanding environments.

High-precision PID control

The digital PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) controllers guarantee stable and precise thermal regulation, eliminating the oscillations typical of ON/OFF systems. They maintain stability up to ±0.1 °C with automatic autotuning. The TFT touch screen shows real temperature and set-point simultaneously, and includes ramp programming and timer.

Certified thermal uniformity per DIN 12880

Our ovens ensure thermal uniformity of ±1-3 °C depending on model, certified in accordance with the international DIN 12880 standard. We use traceable standards for initial calibration and offer recalibration service with ENAC-traceable certification for ISO 17025-accredited environments.

Integrated dataloggers

Advanced TFT series models incorporate internal memories with datalogger as standard to meet GMP, ISO and FDA regulations. They allow data visualisation on high-resolution touch screens and export via USB, RS-232 or Ethernet in PDF and CSV formats for regulatory audits.

Applications of our ovens by sector

  • Pharmaceutical industry. We guarantee drying and dry-heat sterilisation under GMP compliance, with full cycle traceability and IQ/OQ/PQ validation.

  • Food industry. Ovens for moisture determination in cereals and derivatives, drying of analytical samples and quality control under HACCP.

  • Chemical laboratories and research. Equipment for polymer curing, ageing tests, calcination in muffle furnaces and sample preparation for analysis.

  • Universities and teaching centres. Robust, safe and easy-to-operate ovens for bacteriological incubation, glassware drying and laboratory practice.

Why choose JP Selecta ovens

Manufactured in Spain, JP Selecta ovens combine robust engineering, precision control and international regulatory compliance in a range of over 50 models.

100% AISI 304 stainless steel construction

While other brands use painted or galvanised steel that corrodes over time and with humidity, all our ovens incorporate AISI 304 stainless steel interior and exterior (refractory AISI 310 in high temperatures). This provides resistance to aggressive chemicals, no particle release, ease of cleaning and disinfection, and a service life three times longer than the market standard.

High-density mineral-fibre insulation

We use high-density mineral-fibre panels that act as an unbeatable thermal barrier. We guarantee perfect homogeneity inside the chamber while maintaining a safe-to-touch outer temperature, with optimised energy consumption.

Range of capacities in a single family

From the compact 19-litre incubator to large 720-litre industrial units (4,200 L in special versions). This exclusive range allows laboratories to unify their thermal supply under a single technical brand, simplifying calibrations, maintenance and operator training.

Integrated digital traceability

Our TFT series ovens incorporate dataloggers as standard, compatible with GMP, ISO and FDA. They allow exporting thermal cycles in PDF and CSV for audits, facilitating successful pharmaceutical, food and clinical inspections.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a natural-convection oven and a forced-convection oven?

The main difference is the air circulation system. In natural convection, air moves by density difference, providing gentle drying ideal for volatile samples or fine powders that must not be dispersed. In forced convection, a fan drives the air to achieve superior thermal homogeneity and much faster temperature recovery after opening the door, making it the ideal option for dense loads or large volumes.

What is a vacuum oven used for in the laboratory?

The vacuum oven is used to process samples that are heat-sensitive or that could oxidise in the presence of air. By reducing pressure, the boiling point of liquids drops, allowing the removal of solvents or moisture at much lower temperatures, thus preserving sample integrity.

When do I need a vacuum oven?

It is essential when working with heat-sensitive materials that degrade at standard drying temperatures. It is also required to remove solvents with high boiling points at low temperatures, prevent oxidation of metallic or chemical components, and dry very fine powders without them being projected by the air stream of a fan.

What is a Poupinel oven?

A Poupinel oven is a dry-heat sterilisation device. Unlike the autoclave (which uses steam), the Poupinel uses hot air at temperatures of 160 °C to 180 °C during 2-hour cycles to eliminate microorganisms. It is specifically applied to dry material that does not withstand water vapour, in food analyses such as oils, powders, petroleum jellies, or glassware that must be kept completely dry.

What temperature range do JP Selecta ovens cover?

Our range covers an exceptionally broad thermal spectrum to meet any technical need. We offer everything from precision incubators operating at 5 °C above ambient temperature to industrial muffle furnaces that reach 1,100 °C for calcination processes and advanced thermal analyses.

What is a muffle furnace and what is it used for?

A muffle furnace is an oven designed to reach extremely high temperatures (up to 1,100 °C or more) inside a chamber insulated with refractory materials. It is mainly used in laboratories for ash analysis, calcination of organic and inorganic samples, incineration and material resistance testing.

Do JP Selecta ovens comply with GMP standards?

Yes, our advanced models with TFT display and integrated datalogger are designed to comply with GMP and FDA standards. We provide complete documentation for IQ/OQ/PQ validation protocols, total traceability of temperature cycles via USB/Ethernet export and alarm systems for any process deviation, facilitating quality audits.

What maintenance does a laboratory oven need?

To ensure precision and safety, regular cleaning of the interior chamber (stainless steel) is required, as well as checking the condition of the door gaskets to avoid thermal leaks and inspecting the temperature sensor. Annual calibration with traceable standards is recommended. You can request technical assistance in our technical support section.
