The HSCo HSC-I-CIBODIRI is a refrigerated (cooling) incubator that holds from −10 °C up to 65 °C, so it works as a BOD incubator, a cold incubator for culture preservation, or a stability chamber for samples. A hermetic compressor with R134a cools it, a stainless heater warms it, and forced air keeps the chamber even within ±1 °C. It has a 30-segment programmable controller, an over-temperature alarm with an independent temperature limiter, and comes in 70, 150 and 250 litre sizes.
Why labs choose it
- −10 °C to 65 °C: cooling and heating in one chamber.
- Steady: ±0.5 °C at high temperatures, ±1 °C at low; ±1 °C uniformity.
- Programmable: 30 segments, timer up to 99.9 hours.
- Two control types: colour LCD program controller (BV) or 5-inch touch screen (BLT).
- Automatic defrost with twin evaporators.
- Useful extras: built-in waterproof socket inside, test hole, LED light.
