Esco CelCulture CO2 incubators with UV Lamp offers extra protection for your precious cells. Ozone-free UV lamp decontaminates the water in the humidity pan and the circulating air that flows across the water surface. The UV lamp is isolated from the inner chamber by the plenum cover, ensuring the safety of cell cultures from the UV decontamination.
Advanced Environmental ControlWith its robust temperature and CO2 regulation, the ESCO CelCulture CO2 Incubator ensures optimal cellular growth environments. The microprocessor PID control and infrared CO2 sensor work together to maintain tight tolerances, while high humidity (up to 95% RH) and uniform heat distribution provide stability essential for sensitive cultures.
Superior Contamination PreventionBuilt-in UV sterilization and the heated, triple-glazed inner glass door help safeguard your research from microbial contamination. The chamber's rounded corners allow for easy cleaning, while the water pan provides essential humidity without compromising sterility. This integrated design minimizes maintenance and risk.
User-Friendly Interface and Safety FeaturesA large, backlit LCD digital display enables straightforward monitoring and adjustments. Adjustable stainless steel shelves enhance workflow flexibility. The incubator's audio-visual and remote alarm systems deliver prompt notifications, helping users address issues swiftly and maintain uninterrupted experiments.
FAQ's of ESCO CelCulture CO2 Incubator with UV Lamp, 170 L:
Q: How does the built-in UV lamp benefit cell culture research in the ESCO CelCulture CO2 Incubator?
A: The built-in UV lamp helps eliminate airborne contaminants and reduces the risk of cross-contamination within the chamber. This is crucial for cell culture research as it protects sensitive samples and maintains reproducible conditions.
Q: What makes the temperature and CO2 control so accurate in this incubator?
A: Equipped with a microprocessor PID controller and a high-precision infrared (IR) CO2 sensor, the incubator delivers temperature stability of 0.1C and CO2 accuracy of 0.1%, maintaining consistent environments essential for reliable cell growth.
Q: When should I use the adjustable stainless steel shelves and how do they enhance workflow?
A: The three adjustable shelves can be repositioned or expanded to accommodate various culture vessels or experiments. Use them to maximize your chamber's capacity and optimize the arrangement for your specific research needs.
Q: Where can this CO2 incubator be ideally used?
A: This incubator is ideal for cell culture incubation and research in biotechnology, cell biology, and microbiology laboratories. Its compliance with CE and UL standards ensures it is suited for regulated research facilities across India.
Q: What process ensures humidity control inside the chamber?
A: Humidity is maintained up to 95% RH using a dedicated water pan located within the chamber. This creates a moist atmosphere ideal for cell culture, reducing evaporation from culture plates and supporting healthy cell development.
Q: How does the alarm system contribute to laboratory safety?
A: The incubator has an integrated audio-visual alarm and remote alarm capability to instantly notify you of deviations in temperature, CO2, or door status. These safety features allow timely interventions to protect sensitive samples.
Q: What are the optional features available and their benefits?
A: Optional accessories include a standalone data logger for compliance and traceability, a CO2 backup system to prevent disruptions during power loss, and a stacking kit to save valuable lab space, thereby enhancing convenience and experimental reliability.
