Determinations, Environmental Research, Plant and Insect Studies, Fermentation Studies, and Bacterial Culturing among many others. Intuitive interfaces, microprocessor PID controls with pre-heat chamber technology, dual auto-defrosting system, UV disinfection, precisely tuned and tested ventilation and insulation package, all supported by Esco’s solutions - based sales and service representatives worldwide. KEY FeatURES PRE-heat CHAMBER TECHNOLOGY • No exposed heating elements located inside the chamber to ensure maximum user safety. • Stable heating and maximum temperature uniformity in the chamber. ISOTHERM® REFRIGERATED INCUBATOR • Standard temp setting range 0°C up to 100°C for maximum application flexibility. • Secure 2-point door seal and eccentric hinge ensure maximum gasket compression for stable chamber temperature. AUTO-DEFROSTING SYSTEM • Auto-heating activates and continues for a predetermined time during opration. • Auto-defrosting during operation • Auto-defrosting activates regularly. Influence on temperature fluctuation and uniformity is minimal. SIDE ACCESS port For temperature validation & mapping. Isotherm® Refrigerated Incubator available in EASY TO SERVICE 3 sizes,110L, 170L, 240L. • Diagnostic functions in the microprocessor include historical read- out of temperatures. • Diagnostic menu provides read-out of all sensor inputs and controller settings. • Service can be carried out from the front. • All electronics components are isolated from the work chamber and easily accessible for replacement. • Low service costs. 5 Refrigerated Incubator UV DISINFECTION GERMAN-MADE EBM PAPST FAN Auto-running disinfection after startup and during testing process as well, is adjustable to meet different requirements.

All settings ‘start temp’, ‘arrival temp’, and running time after arrival. Different can be done in a single program. For example, repeat a process programs may be linked to extend the total number of sequences, from 50°C to 70°C and back. thus creating virtually unlimited programming options. 7 Refrigerated Incubator OTHER SUPERB FEATURES FORCED CONVECTION LaboratorY REFRIGERATED INCUBATOR ApplicatioNS APPLICATION APPLICATION a.
