Performance Features
  • Natural convection circulation operates without fan noise and reduces sample evaporation risk according to the product design. This helps balance temperature uniformity with sample protection during microbiological incubation, culture observation, and temperature-controlled laboratory work where natural convection is preferred.
  • A mirror-finish stainless-steel chamber supports cleaning and maintenance after routine use. This supports repeated cleaning, sample organization and dependable laboratory maintenance.
  • The door includes an observation window for process checks without unloading the chamber. This supports repeated cleaning, sample organization and dependable laboratory maintenance.
  • Optional programmable control, U-disk data storage, and RS485 communication are listed for this family. This allows the configuration to match documentation, communication and monitoring needs in microbiological incubation, culture observation, and temperature-controlled laboratory work where natural convection is preferred.
  • Optional UV sterilization is listed for contamination control support. This supports chamber hygiene and contamination-control routines for microbiological incubation, culture observation, and temperature-controlled laboratory work where natural convection is preferred.
  • High-temperature and over-temperature alarms help support safer laboratory operation. This helps operators identify abnormal conditions during unattended or extended microbiological incubation, culture observation, and temperature-controlled laboratory work where natural convection is preferred.
APPLICATION SCOPE: Suitable for microbiological incubation, culture observation, and temperature-controlled laboratory work where natural convection is preferred in universities, research institutes, quality-control laboratories and other scientific workflows where controlled incubation conditions are required.
HANDLING: Before installation, confirm the available space against the 507 × 397 × 347 mm (W × D × H) external dimensions and provide the required power supply shown in the technical specifications. Keep the chamber, sensors, shelves, filters, doors, test ports and control interfaces accessible for cleaning, inspection and operation. During transport, every incubator is protected with reinforced packaging to reduce movement and impact risk; keep the packed unit upright and use suitable lifting equipment.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Select optional accessories and functions according to the required workflow: LCD or programmable controller; printer; U-disk data storage; RS485 interface and communication software; UV sterilization; independent over-temperature controller. Any displayed amount refers to the incubator body only and does not include freight. Freight is quoted separately; please contact us for shipping confirmation.

The incubator requires an ambient temperature range of +5 to +35 °C and a power supply of AC 220 V, 50 Hz for stable operation. Natural convection airflow reduces sample evaporation risk but may limit temperature uniformity compared to forced-air designs.

  • Temperature Control Constraint: The incubator maintains a temperature range of RT +5 to 65 °C with a fluctuation of ±0.5 °C, requiring calibration verification for precision workflows.
  • Installation Space Constraint: Installation must accommodate external dimensions of 507 × 397 × 347 mm (W × D × H) and provide accessible clearance for chamber door, shelves, and control interfaces.
  • Optional UV Sterilization Constraint: UV sterilization, if selected, requires proper shielding and operator safety protocols to prevent UV exposure during operation.

This procedure covers initial installation, power connection, and basic operation for microbiological incubation. Follow these steps to ensure safe and repeatable temperature-controlled culture work.

Required Equipment: Incubator unit with standard controller, AC 220 V, 50 Hz power source, Shelf configuration tool (if adjusting shelves)

  1. Position the incubator
    Place the incubator on a level, stable surface with at least 10 cm clearance around all sides for ventilation and access.
  2. Connect power supply
    Plug the incubator into a grounded AC 220 V, 50 Hz outlet and verify the power indicator illuminates.
  3. Set the target temperature
    Use the standard controller to set the desired incubation temperature within the range of RT +5 to 65 °C.
  4. Allow temperature stabilization
    Allow the chamber to reach the set temperature and stabilize for at least 30 minutes before loading samples.
  5. Load samples onto shelves
    Place culture vessels on the stainless-steel shelves, ensuring even spacing for natural convection airflow.
  6. Monitor incubation conditions
    Observe chamber temperature via the display and check samples through the observation window without opening the door.

What is the advantage of natural convection airflow in this microbiological incubator compared to forced air systems?

Natural convection airflow reduces sample evaporation risk and operates without fan noise, making it ideal for microbiological incubation where sample moisture retention is critical. The product description states that this design 'reduces sample evaporation risk' and provides 'quiet operation' while maintaining temperature uniformity through the working chamber. This is a deliberate trade-off that prioritizes sample protection over rapid temperature recovery.

Can this incubator be integrated with external data logging or monitoring systems?

Yes, the incubator supports optional RS485 interface and communication software for external monitoring and data logging. Additionally, optional printer and U-disk data storage are available to record temperature and operational parameters. These options are listed as 'Optional Accessories and Functions' in the technical specifications, allowing integration into laboratory information management systems.

What are the power supply and ambient temperature requirements for installing this incubator?

The incubator requires AC 220 V, 50 Hz power supply and must be installed in an ambient temperature range of +5 to +35 °C. The technical specifications explicitly state the power supply as 'AC 220 V, 50 Hz' and the working ambient temperature as '+5 to +35 °C'. The temperature control range of RT +5 to 65 °C means the lower limit is ambient-dependent, so environmental conditions directly affect achievable incubation temperatures.

This 16 L microbiological incubator utilizes natural convection for quiet operation and reduced sample evaporation, with a temperature range from RT+5 to 65°C and a mirror-finish stainless steel chamber. It is well-suited for basic microbiological incubation and culture observation, but the absence of forced convection and limited temperature range may constrain applications requiring precise uniformity or lower temperatures.

Positive

  • Natural Convection Reduces Sample Evaporation: Natural convection airflow minimizes fan-induced evaporation and noise, making it suitable for prolonged microbiological incubation where sample moisture retention is critical.
  • Stainless Steel Chamber with Observation Window: The mirror-finish stainless steel chamber facilitates cleaning and maintenance, while the door-mounted observation window allows non-disruptive monitoring of cultures during incubation.

Trade-offs

  • Limited Temperature Range Without Cooling: The incubator operates only above ambient temperature (RT+5°C to 65°C) and lacks refrigeration, restricting its use to mesophilic incubation and excluding applications requiring sub-ambient or cryogenic conditions.
  • Natural Convection Temperature Uniformity Trade-off: Natural convection provides gentler airflow but typically results in greater temperature stratification and slower recovery compared to forced-air circulation, which may affect uniformity-sensitive applications.
