Overview
The carbon dioxide (CO₂) incubator is an advanced cultivation device that provides a stable temperature and humidity environment while continuously delivering a specific concentration of CO₂ gas to control the pH of the culture medium. It creates ideal conditions for optimal growth of cultures. Therefore, the CO₂ incubator is widely used in fields such as cell biology, cancer research, and virology. It is an ideal device for cell, tissue, and bacterial cultivation in modern medicine, the pharmaceutical industry, biochemistry, agricultural sciences, and industrial production sectors.
Features
● Independent over-temperature alarm system ensures the safe operation of experiments and prevents accidents.
● Alarms for low, high, or over-temperature and door-open time alarm functions.
● The door of the CO₂ incubator can heat the inner glass door, effectively preventing condensation, thereby reducing the risk of microbial contamination caused by condensation on the glass.
● Automatic control of circulation fan speed:
When the internal temperature reaches a steady state, the fan speed decreases to adjust airflow to match cell growth needs, avoiding excessive airflow that could cause sample evaporation during experiments.
● A UV sterilization lamp is installed at the top rear of the chamber to periodically disinfect the interior, effectively killing airborne bacteria in the circulating air and humidification tray, preventing contamination during cell culture.
● Optional HEPA filter:
The CO₂ inlet is equipped with a high-efficiency microbial filter that filters particles ≥0.3 µm with an efficiency of 99.99%, effectively removing bacteria and dust from the CO₂ gas.
● Stackable design:
Two units can be stacked to maximize lab space. The incubator features a microcomputer color LCD controller for precise and reliable control. The interior is made of stainless steel with rounded corners for easy cleaning, and the shelves can be freely installed and removed for convenience.
● Infrared (IR) sensor: This sensor quickly detects CO₂ concentration and is unaffected by fluctuations in external temperature or humidity. It ensures stable and uniform CO₂ levels inside the chamber, even with frequent door openings. In contrast, thermal conductivity sensors are more susceptible to temperature changes, have slower response times, and may require frequent calibration over long-term use due to detection errors.
Typical Applications
CO₂ incubators are widely used in various settings, including major university laboratories, scientific research, biotechnology, public health and epidemic prevention, and research institutions.
