GelJacket takes creating an ultra-stable environment for cell growth to a whole new level!


GelJacket CO2 IncubatorWhat is GelJacket?
GelJacket is the most innovative technological advancement for cell culture incubators in decades! Caron developed this patented* design to create a premium CO2 incubator geared toward advanced cell culture studies for the future. GelJacket incorporates proprietary gel active insulation, which surrounds the incubator on all sides, creating a top of the line unit with thermal advantages that far surpass any CO2 incubator on the market today. This new technology includes all of the advantages of modern benchtop units without any of the disadvantages.

How is GelJacket superior to water jacket? Water jacket incubators were the choice of researchers for years, primarily due to the thermal protection offered by the water following door openings and power outages. Caron's new GelJacket incubator far exceeds water jacket thermal protection by insulating with the heat retaining gel.

GelJacket CO2 IncubatorWater jackets require frequent maintenance, such as adding algaecide, draining and filling. GelJacket's sealed gel requires no maintenance, is lightweight to enhance mobility and has no risk of leaking. In fact, the incubator has rapid reaction to door openings because of the high thermal retention of the gel, making it the safest incubator on the market today.

Water jacket incubators also require manual cleaning because they cannot withstand the pressure created when water is heated to high temperatures during a decon cycle. Caron's incubator is the first to offer thermal protection that surpasses water jacket with the user friendliness of an automatic built-in 90°C moist heat decontamination cycle.

How is GelJacket superior to air jacket/direct heat? GelJacket takes heating and insulating one step further by the gel's ability to enhance temperature stability and uniformity of the incubator. GelJacket technology offers all of the user-friendly features scientists have come to prefer with air jacket/direct heat incubators while transcending the technology of water jacket incubators!

Standard Features & BenefitsCO2 Incubator
  • The GelJacket series is 10 cu. ft., compact and stackable, allowing you to attain the best use of your laboratory space.
  • The Model 6014 has a temperature range of 10°C above ambient to 60°C, Temperature is controlled with a drift-resistant RTD temperature sensor, providing stable temperature control over long periods of time.
  • The GelJacket incubator has a thin layer of proprietary high-energy absorbing gel, which surrounds the entire incubator. The gel blankets the incubator with heat, and will retain interior temperature even during power failures.
  • Caron's earth-friendly gVapor™ creates controlled humidity. It is unlike conventional steam generator humidification system. gVapor™ delivers controlled humidity vapor on an as-needed basis without wasting energy or generating heat, and eliminates the need for a water pan.
  • An IR sensor is utilized to maintain a CO2 range of 0 to 20%. Caron's IR sensor is a safe and time-tested technology that allows for quick recovery after door openings and an ultra-stable environment where your cell cultures will thrive.
  • Caron's gentle horizontal airflow system generates evenly distributed airflow across all shelf locations. Maximum uniformity and rapid recovery are maintained.
  • The interior consists of polished stainless steel, which is highly resistant to corrosion and allows for an easy and effective cabinet wipe-down when needed.
  • The adjustable shelves are readily arranged to meet your application's needs and slide out, making samples at the back of the chamber easy to access.
  • Our "tool-less" interior design allows you to remove the interior components effortlessly for routine cleaning or to set up multiple configurations for your cell research.
  • The control panel is lockable to minimize the possibility of unauthorized access to the incubator's controls.
  • A wide range of popular accessories are available, which allow you to customize the incubator for your application.
  • The rapid Decontamination Cycle cleans the incubator overnight with the push of a button, minimizing downtime.
  • A refrigerated version, Model 6016, is available.
  • The refrigerated version is the only benchtop refrigerated CO2 incubator. It is designed for more demanding applications. Refrigerated CO2 Incubator
  • The Model 6016 has a temperature range of 5°C to 60°C and is controlled with a drift-resistant RTD temperature sensor, for applications where heat generated by shakers or stirrers must be removed.
  • The Model 6016 features gROD™, Refrigeration on Demand, to efficiently manage power consumption and save energy.
 
Decontamination Cycle
 
While every precaution is taken to avoid susceptibility to contamination, an easy to use, maintenance free decontamination cycle is standard for added peace of mind.

Caron's 90°C moist heat decontamination cycle is a scientifically proven method for safe and effective decontamination.

The design further simplifies and accelerates conventional moist heat cycles by adding a drying phase, making it the fastest 90°C moist heat decontamination cycle in the industry. This new feature occurs at the end of the decon cycle and pumps HEPA filtered air into the incubator. The result is a clean, dry incubator with no additional cleanup needed. The drying cycle quickly cools the incubator as the last phase of the maintenance free, overnight decon cycle.
