Standard Features
Model 6025
  • A wide temperature range of 5°C to 70°C, combined with a humidity range of 20% to 98% RH, offers you the flexibility to simulate real-world environmental conditions.
  • Phenolic-coated refrigeration coils resist the corrosive effects of acids inherent in the rearing of insects, such as drosophila.
  • Caron's specialized gROD™, refrigeration on demand, control system efficiently manages power consumption and saves electricity, contributing to lower utility bills.
  • Caron's innovative gVapor™, a steam-free humidity system, delivers controlled humidity without wasting energy or generating heat and supports lower production costs.
  • Our unique design includes "tool-less" reconfiguration of interior components. It allows you to change the interior arrangements to adjust the unit to your specific needs.
  • The carefully designed horizontal airflow system generates evenly distributed airflow across all shelf locations. Temperature uniformity and rapid recovery are maintained even under heavy loads.
  • Our 25 cu. ft. design comes complete with factory-installed, heavy-duty casters and will roll through a standard 34" x 80" doorway without modification.
  • The stainless steel interior chamber and shelving are easily cleaned and highly resistant to corrosion.
  • The ergonomically designed door handle allows easy access into the chamber and contributes to workplace efficiency.
  • Two access ports, one on each side of the chamber, provide easy access to connect instrumentation.
  • An optional LED Lighting System simulates diurnal (day/night) studies. The low profile, side mounted lighting system allows full utilization of the chamber interior and complete access to the sliding shelves.
  • Optional Fluorescent Lighting System includes a cycle timer to simulate diurnal conditions for day/night studies. Three light banks are independently controlled for versatile incubator layout. Lights illuminate the shelf from above and are adjustable in height.
