Vintage Hanau Electric Compound Heater Dental Lab Basin With Original Box

  
This vintage Hanau Electric Compound Heater is a remarkable piece of dental laboratory history manufactured by the Hanau Engineering Co. A highly collectible artifact, it features a heavy chrome-plated base with an adjustable control dial and built-in pilot light housing. The unit is accompanied by its distinctive white porcelain enamel basin, prominently stamped with the classic blue Hanau logo on the interior floor. Designed to precisely melt and maintain dental impression compounds, this specialized apparatus represents the rugged, high-quality industrial craftsmanship of mid-century medical and dental laboratory equipment. This comprehensive set includes the heating unit, the original power cord, two metallic hanging brackets, an extra pilot light component, and an authentic vintage hanging instruction tag outlining the original operating procedures. Everything arrives tucked inside its original cardboard factory box, which bears the traditional Hanau Engineering corporate stamp on the side. While this classic piece shows minor shelf wear consistent with its age, the chrome retains a beautiful shine and the enamel basin remains in remarkably clean condition, making it a stellar addition to any historic medical collection, dental history display, or industrial antique showcase.
