About Mokon
Mokon is an American manufacturer of industrial process temperature control systems, founded in 1955 in Buffalo, New York. The company started when its own engineers built a water temperature control unit to regulate fast-cycle injection molding machines, and it has stayed within that field since. Its equipment heats or chills a circulating fluid and holds it at a set point for a process downstream. The range serves pharmaceutical, laboratory, and industrial markets. The equipment falls into a handful of classes: water temperature control units, heat transfer oil systems, portable and central chillers, and combination systems that heat and chill in one unit. Mokon also builds pump tanks, blown film coolers, engineered control panels, and custom-built systems. On Questpair, the listings for this maker are all used units from verified suppliers and distributors.
Mokon temperature control product lines
The core of the range is temperature control: equipment that circulates a fluid, water or heat transfer oil, through a process and holds it at a chosen temperature. Water-based units cover the lower part of that band, while oil systems reach the higher temperatures that water cannot. The chilling side runs from portable chillers, which sit beside a single machine, to central chillers that serve several points from one plant. Combination heating and chilling systems bring both functions into one unit, which suits a process that must move between the two.
Beyond these workhorses, the maker carries a sanitary cleanroom line, Pura-Therm, built for pharmaceutical and medical applications where the wetted surfaces and construction have to meet hygiene requirements. In that setting the units support cell culture and bioprocessing work, where a reactor or a jacketed vessel has to be held at a tight temperature for a biomanufacturing run. Holding a fermenter or a bioreactor at a stable set point is a standard requirement in biomanufacturing, and a circulating temperature control unit is how that is done. The same precise control is used for bioprocessing steps where a shift of a degree changes a yield. Mokon also distributes the Orcinus Orca and Orcinus Smartshark for the US market through a partnership with enesty GmbH.
What this means for a buyer is that the product-line names map onto a job: a water unit for moderate-temperature control, an oil system for high-temperature work, a chiller or a central system for cooling, and the Pura-Therm line where the application is pharmaceutical or medical rather than general industrial. The Questpair catalogue does not necessarily hold every one of these lines at a given moment, so the listed selection is the place to check what is actually available.
How condition and price break down across the listings
Every Mokon listing in the catalogue is a used unit. 100 percent of the listings are used. Used equipment is listed below new pricing, and that is the practical reason to look here. Prices run from EUR 669 to EUR 13.377. That span covers the difference between a compact water temperature control unit and a larger central system, so the figure to read is the range rather than a single point within it.
The listings come from 2 verified suppliers and distributors. Where a buyer needs parts, those can be sourced via Questpair; where documentation is missing, contacting Questpair reaches specialists who respond within an hour. A warranty is often possible and is arranged in consultation for the specific listing, so that question is settled against the unit a buyer is actually considering rather than across the catalogue as a whole.
Questpair review of Mokon
Our take based on listings data and supplier feedback
Mokon occupies a narrow, well-defined position: it makes equipment that holds a process fluid at a set temperature, and it has done so since 1955. That focus is what the Questpair catalogue reflects, and it is worth separating what the marketplace data supports from what it does not.
The first point is the condition profile. Every one of the 64 Mokon listings is used. 100 percent of the listings are used. For a buyer, that means the comparison here is never new against used within Mokon's own range; it is one used unit against another. Used and refurbished equipment is listed at lower prices than new, and that price gap is the concrete reason a buyer looks at this part of the catalogue in the first place. Where warranty matters, it is arranged in consultation for the specific listing rather than set across the board, so the individual listing is where that question gets answered.
The second point is the breadth within a single maker. Mokon's own range is not one product but a family: water temperature control units, heat transfer oil systems for higher-temperature work, portable chillers, central chillers, and combination heating and chilling systems that do both in one footprint. The catalogue carries this spread rather than a single model line, which is useful for a buyer matching a unit to a specific process rather than shopping a category blind. Pump tanks, engineered control panels, and custom systems sit in the same portfolio, so the maker's output ranges from a standalone unit to configured assemblies.
The third point is the price range, and it is the one that needs care. Prices run from EUR 669 to EUR 13.377. That is a wide band, and it maps onto the breadth above: a compact water temperature control unit and a larger central chilling system are different machines doing different jobs at different scales. A single average across that band tells a buyer less than the range itself does, which is why the span is the more honest figure to work from. The catalogue is listed by 2 suppliers, so the selection reflects a small set of sellers rather than a broad open market, and a buyer should read the available units as a current snapshot rather than the full historical range Mokon has produced.
What the data does not support is a judgement on reliability, service life, or how a given used unit will perform, because those depend on the individual machine and its history. Parts, where a unit needs them, can be sourced via Questpair. For documentation, a buyer can contact Questpair and specialists respond within an hour. On balance, this is a single-maker catalogue for a single task, and the most useful way to read it is by matching the type of unit to the process at hand and then comparing specific listings on condition and price.

Frequently asked questions
Where can I find manuals or documentation for a Mokon unit?
For documentation on a specific model, contact Questpair and specialists respond within the hour. Which manual applies depends on the exact unit and series, so naming the listing helps get the right document.
How much does a Mokon temperature control unit cost?
Listed prices range from EUR 669 to EUR 13.377, with an average of EUR 2.783. Compact water temperature control units sit at the lower end, while larger heat transfer oil systems account for the upper figures.
What's the difference between refurbished and used Mokon units?
Both are offered below the price of new equipment on Questpair. The practical difference for a given pair comes down to the individual listing's stated condition, specification, and temperature range rather than a uniform grading.
Is there a warranty on a Mokon unit bought here?
A warranty is often possible and is arranged in consultation for the specific listing. Terms are not set centrally, so they attach to the individual unit rather than to the brand as a whole.
Are Mokon systems suitable for clinical or research work?
The Pura-Therm sanitary line is built for pharmaceutical and medical cleanroom applications such as reactor jackets and fermentation vessels. The same class of circulating equipment also supports laboratory work in cell culture and protein purification where stable fluid temperature is required.
How long does a Mokon temperature control unit last?
Mokon has built circulating heating and chilling equipment since 1955, and these units are designed for continuous industrial process duty. Actual lifespan depends on the fluid used, duty cycle, and maintenance history of the specific unit.
Can I get parts for a Mokon unit?
Parts for a listed unit can be sourced via Questpair. Identifying the exact model and series makes it easier to match the correct component.
What are the alternatives to Mokon temperature control equipment?
Within the Questpair catalogue the comparable classes are circulating water temperature control systems, process temperature controllers, thermal management systems, and industrial temperature control units. Which fits depends on whether your process needs water, heat transfer oil, chilling, or combined heating and cooling.
What is the lead time on a Mokon unit?
Lead time depends on the individual listing and the supplier holding it. Contact Questpair with the unit you are considering and specialists respond within the hour with availability.
What's the difference between parts and spares for these units?
The two terms are used interchangeably for the components that keep a unit running, such as pumps, heaters, and controls. Any of these can be sourced via Questpair against the specific model.
Do Mokon units ship internationally?
The listings come from verified suppliers and distributors across 1 country. Shipping arrangements depend on the individual supplier, which Questpair can confirm for a given listing.
Which product lines does Mokon make and how do they differ?
Water temperature control units cover the lower temperature range using water, while heat transfer oil systems reach higher temperatures than pressurised water allows, which is why they are separate lines. Cooling is handled by portable and central chillers, combination units do both in one machine, and the Pura-Therm line is the sanitary cleanroom branch for pharmaceutical and medical use.
Which types of Mokon equipment are listed here and in what condition?
The catalogue covers temperature control units, circulating water temperature control systems, laboratory temperature controllers, thermal management systems, process temperature controllers, and industrial temperature control units. 100 percent of the listings are used, so the inventory is largely single-condition and comparisons turn on specification rather than condition class.
What separates the cheapest Mokon listings from the most expensive?
The spread runs from compact water temperature control units at the bottom to larger heat transfer oil systems at the top, driven by capacity and temperature range. With the average of EUR 2.783 sitting below the midpoint of EUR 669 to EUR 13.377, the inventory concentrates on mid-range water and oil units rather than the largest central chillers.
