The HSCo HSC-I-CTI constant temperature incubator holds samples at a steady temperature from 5 °C above room temperature up to 70 °C, for microbial cultures, cell incubation and sample conditioning. It has PID temperature control with a PT100 sensor, a timer up to 9,999 minutes and an over-temperature alarm. It comes in four sizes from 45 to 210 litres, with a galvanised inner chamber or, in the B models, a mirror stainless-steel chamber.
Why labs choose it
- Room temperature +5 °C to 70 °C, set in 0.1 °C steps and held within ±0.5 °C.
- PID control with a PT100 sensor, self-tuning to stop the temperature overshooting.
- Timer up to 9,999 minutes, with timed start and automatic stop.
- Four sizes: 45, 65, 125 and 210 litres.
- Two chamber choices: galvanised steel, or mirror stainless steel (B models).
- Safe: sound and light alarm on over-temperature; settings are kept through a power cut.
