CO2 and Hypoxia %O2 Incubators

Incubator with precise control of CO2, O2 and temperature allowing optimal conditions for cell culture under hypoxic conditions. Air is recirculated through a pump external to the chamber to homogenise temperature conditions. Heating elements (5) in walls, base, ceiling and bottom of the equipment to generate high temperature uniformity.

Precise control of %CO2 conditions
Dual beam, self-calibrating, Vaisala type IR sensor with a failure rate 2% and a light lifetime >10 years.
Range 0.1-20% CO2.
Accuracy ±0.1%.
Recovery in 5% CO2 conditions in less than 5 minutes after door opening.

Precise control of temperature conditions:

Adjustable from +5ºC above ambient to +55ºC.
Accuracy ±0.1ºC.
Average temperature recovery 0,12ºC/min.
Precise control of 02 conditions: These equipments have control to suppress oxygen in the chamber by injecting N2 gas.
Adjustable from 0.5% to 21%.
Accuracy ±0.25%.

Recovery to 5% CO2 conditions in less than 20 minutes after door opening. Unique incubator design allows constant prevention of contamination inside the chamber:

Triple HEPA filtration, ISO 5 air conditions (equivalent to a clean room) and slight positive pressure inside.
Inner chamber made of 100% 304 stainless steel, rounded edges and completely free of elements where any type of contamination can accumulate.
NUTOUCH electronic control system, totally adaptable and self-sufficient, which allows precise control of the internal environment. With control via colour touch screen, very easy to operate and available in several languages (English, Spanish, German and French).
Allows access to historical data (downloadable via USB port and RS485)
Includes diagnostic software for fault detection. Models with decontamination cycle: o 12-hour cycle with dry heat (at 145ºC). o 8-hour cycle with moist heat (at 95ºC). o Cycles can be performed at night as part of preventive maintenance, without the need to disassemble any elements (no CO2 sensor or HEPA filter disassembly required).
