CO2 Incubator 40-240 L, IR CO2 Sensor 0-20%, RT+5 to 55°C, HEPA Filter, 90°C Sterilization

The Master Science CO2 Incubator with IR Sensor holds cell and tissue cultures at a steady temperature, CO2 level and humidity. An infrared sensor reads CO2 quickly and is not thrown off by changes in temperature or humidity, so the chamber gets back to 5% CO2 within about 3 minutes after the door has been open for 30 seconds.

Heating is air-jacketed under PID control, and a fan with automatic speed control keeps temperature within ±0.3°C across the chamber at 37°C. A HEPA filter cleans the internal air and a 0.3 µm filter on the CO2 inlet removes particles from the gas supply. A 90°C moist heat cycle sterilizes the chamber. Five sizes run from 40 to 240 litres, and the smaller units can be stacked two high.

Key Benefits

• Fast CO2 recovery: The IR sensor in the Master Science CO2 Incubator with IR Sensor restores 5% CO2 within 3 minutes of a door opening.
• Stable, even temperature: ±0.1°C fluctuation and ±0.3°C uniformity at 37°C.
• Clean chamber air: HEPA and CO2 inlet filters keep out microbes and dust.
• Built-in decontamination: A 90°C moist heat cycle sterilizes the chamber.

Culture Problems the Master Science CO2 Incubator with IR Sensor Solves

Unstable conditions and contamination ruin cultures. The Master Science CO2 Incubator with IR Sensor addresses:

• Slow CO2 recovery after door opening: IR sensing gets back to setpoint within 3 minutes.
• Condensation on the glass door: A heated door keeps the glass dry.
• Airborne contamination: HEPA filtration and inlet gas filtering keep the chamber clean.
• Time-consuming cleaning: The 90°C moist heat cycle decontaminates automatically.
