Product Description
| Brand | Eppendorf |
| Model | 42R |
| Capacity | 121 kg/267 lb |
| CAT No | M1335-0016 |
| Application | Incubator Shaker |
The Innova 42 and 42R (refrigerated) shakers are our most versatile incubator shakers in terms of placement and options. They can be stacked up to two units high and can also be placed on or under a standard height laboratory bench. In every scenario, the side opening door/s allow users access right up to the chamber. Options include a static culture drawer, gassing manifold, remote alarm, and humidity monitor and drip pan. Additionally, a photosynthetic light bank and UV germicidal light are available for the 42R.
Superior Temperature and Shaking ControlWith a microprocessor-controlled system, the Innova 42R delivers consistent incubation at precise temperatures (accuracy 0.1C at 37C, uniformity 0.25C). The wide shaking speed range and stable 25 mm orbit ensure uniform mixing, vital for reliable experimental outcomes across various biological applications.
Space-Saving Stackable DesignLaboratories often deal with space constraints. The Innova 42R addresses this by being stackable up to three units high without compromising performance. This vertical configuration increases sample capacity while maintaining a footprint-efficient workspace, suitable for expanding laboratory needs.
Versatile Application and AdaptabilityDesigned for cell culture, molecular biology, microbiology, and bioprocessing, the Innova 42R accommodates six 2 L flasks (standard), and offers optional humidity and CO2 control kits. This flexibility allows for tailored environmental control, supporting sensitive cell lines and a variety of experimental protocols.
FAQ's of Eppendorf New Brunswick Innova 42R - Stackable Incubator Shaker:
Q: How does the Innova 42R ensure consistent temperature and shaking conditions for sensitive samples?
A: The Innova 42R utilizes a microprocessor-controlled system, delivering precise temperature accuracy (0.1C at 37C) and uniformity (0.25C at 37C). Its orbital shaking mechanism (25 mm orbit, 25-400 rpm) ensures uniform sample agitation, promoting reproducible growth and experimental results.
Q: What kinds of laboratory applications can the Innova 42R be used for?
A: This incubator shaker is ideal for cell culture, microbiology, molecular biology, and bioprocessing. Its capacity to support optional humidity and CO2 kits makes it adaptable for demanding protocols, including the culture of sensitive or adherent cell lines.
Q: When should I consider using the stackable feature of the Innova 42R?
A: The stackable feature is most beneficial when your laboratory needs to increase throughput without expanding horizontal lab space. You can stack up to three units high, optimizing your workspace while maintaining independent control of each chamber.
Q: Where does the Innova 42R excel in laboratory settings?
A: It excels in research institutions, clinical laboratories, and biotechnology companies where precise, reproducible incubation and shaking are required for large numbers of samples. Its robust design and advanced control features suit a variety of high-throughput environments.
Q: What is the process for monitoring and controlling the Innova 42R during experiments?
A: All parameters, including temperature and shaking speed, are monitored via the LED digital display. Real-time feedback and a suite of audible and visual alarms ensure quick response to deviations, and a locked door during operation safeguards sample integrity.
Q: How does the optional humidity and CO2 control kit benefit experimental protocols?
A: The optional kits allow tighter environmental control, making the unit suitable for CO2-dependent cultures or humidity-sensitive applications. This enhances experimental consistency for protocols requiring precise atmospheric conditions.
Q: What are the key benefits of using the Innova 42R compared to non-stackable models?
A: Key benefits include enhanced space efficiency, flexible sample capacity expansion, and the ability to run separate experiments in stacked units. This maximizes productivity in any laboratory environment with limited bench space.
