The HSC BOD incubator keeps samples at a steady, controlled temperature for biological oxygen demand (BOD) tests, microbial cultures and biochemical studies. It has both a compressor for cooling and a heater. A fan circulates the air so the temperature is even throughout the chamber. The chamber is double-walled, with an SS 304 inner body and PUF or glass-wool insulation, and there is an inner acrylic door so you can check samples without letting heat in or out. Five sizes, from 90 to 440 litres, suit research labs, wastewater treatment plants and environmental testing centres.

Questions buyers ask
Holding water and wastewater samples at a steady temperature during the biological oxygen demand test, and growing microbial cultures.
So it can cool as well as heat, and hold the set temperature even when the room is warmer.
By the number of bottles or cultures: 90, 170, 285, 340 or 440 litres, with 2 to 4 shelves.
Yes. Open the outer door and look through the inner acrylic door; the internal light helps.
