Model SCO5A is ideal for sensitive tissue and cell culture applications.
It provides the benefits of contamination control and uncompromising temperature uniformity for even the most demanding incubations.
The air jacketed series of CO2 Incubators offer dependable Infrared (IR) CO2 Sensor control and are ideal for sensitive tissue and cell culture applications.
They provide the benefits of contamination control and uncompromising temperature uniformity for even the most demanding incubations.
Precision is easily maintained with push-button calibration of both temperature and CO2, and audio/visual alarms that signal high/low temperature and CO2 conditions.
Modular controls and backup systems ensure confidence for incubating valuable samples.
Extensive use of copper in the CO2 sample port, heated CO2 feed line, housing of the patented HEPA filtration system, and humidity pan with a copper SL decontamination token, adds reassurance that foreign microbes will not affect test results.
Cleanup is a breeze with the all stainless steel chamber, and autoclavable door gasket.
Optional copper shelves are available for even more contamination control.
