Mini CO2 incubators reduce the risks of cross-contamination and allow sensitive cell and tissue culture material to be kept separately
Affordable personal incubators for peace of mind
Design allows storage of individual and sensitive cell and tissue cultures, and eliminates the risks of contamination associated with the sharing of larger CO2 incubators by multiple users
The fully specified Mini A model supports a wide range of diverse options, and the entry level E provides an economic selection of key options that is suitable for any laboratory, whatever the budget.
CO2 control over a 0.2 - 20% range and a left hand-opening door are no cost options on both models.
High temperature decontamination, humidity measurement and display, and a humidity warning system are some of the sophisticated model option choices for the Mini A.
O2 control is available in two formats; as a 1-19% range for those who only need to control oxygen under ambient levels, and a second model operating from 1% through to 95%, thus offering complete and comprehensive control of O2 levels both below and above ambient.
Factory fitted options available for both the Mini A and the Mini E include a 10mm diameter access port, BMS relay contact alarm, and split inner door to minimise disruption of incubator chamber conditions.
An RS 232 port offers connection to a PC (or centronics port to a printer) to enable the continual download of QC data management information, with a software package available to allow electronic storage of graphs and explanations of conditions.
Both the RS 232 port and alarm can be retrofitted by service personnel if required.
In addition to the versatile range of options, 13 accessories are also offered that are compatible with both versions.
These range from the popular space-saving frame for double stacking, through a choice of shelf types and/or positions, to equipment for the regulatory control of CO2 levels and incubator conditions.
Further details of the complete range of accessories are available upon request.
Watch out for the very latest MicroGalaxy which will be launched in January 2003 - 13 litres of precise CO2 incubation conditions. Request a free brochure from RS Biotech Laboratory Equipment ...
