LARGE CAPACITY CO2 INCUBATOR

CARON's large capacity Reach-In CO2 Incubator provides the ideal environment for small to large scale, high volume cell culture.

This 30 cu. ft. unit provides precise control of temperature, relative humidity and CO2, and offers the latest technology in sensors, including infrared (IR) CO2.  Our control and uniformity parameters rival any conventional benchtop incubator, providing maximum culturing space in a minimal footprint (not previously available in a large capacity incubator.)

CARON controls humidity by monitoring and injecting water, eliminating the infamous humidity pans found in other units which result in contamination and corrosion caused by standing water.

Standard Features

• Temperature range of 5°C above ambient to 60°C is controlled with a drift-resistant RTD sensor.
• Humidity is controlled from ambient to 95% RH utilizing a capacitive sensor.  No humidity pan is needed. Water is injected on an as-needed basis to maintain a precisely controlled environment.
• Humidity levels can be controlled at any temperature setpoint without recalibration.
• The CO2 range of 0 to 20% is controlled through the use of an IR (infrared) sensor.  IR CO2 sensors are much more stable and drift resistant than conventional T/C (thermal conductivity) sensors used by other manufacturers.
• The IR CO2 sensor is not affected by temperature or humidity changes, allowing the chamber to recover CO2 levels without waiting on temperature and humidity.  Systems with IR sensors typicaly recover CO2 as much as 10 times faster than those with T/C sensors.
• CARON's carefully designed horizontal airflow system generates evenly distributed airflow across all shelf locations.  Maximum uniformity and rapid recovery are maintained even under heavy cabinet loads.
• Sliding stainless steel shelves are easily adjustable to facilitate handling of your product, and allow easy access to samples at the rear of the chamber.
• Stainless steel interior is easily cleaned and highly resistant to corrosion.
• The ergonomically designed door handle allows easy access into the chamber.
• Heated, triple-pane glass door minimizes condensation on the door for a clear view of your valuable samples, and aids in rapid temperature recovery.
• Lockable control panel minimizes the possibility of unauthorized access.
• Two access ports, one on each side of the chamber, make validation easy and provide you easy access to connect instrumentation.

Set It and Forget It!

CARON's Reach-In CO2 Incubators can be factory pre-programmed with setpoints for temperature, humidity, and CO2.  After final connections are made at your facility, power can be turned on with nothing more to do.  Just set it and forget it!
