Precision Constant Temperature Incubator 15.6 L ATOMFAIR®

Precision Constant Temperature Incubator, 15.6 L, Stainless-Steel Interior

Research-grade laboratory product

Product Overview

Precision Constant Temperature Incubator, 15.6 L, Stainless-Steel Interior is a practical chamber for bacterial culture, fermentation, constant-temperature experiments and laboratory incubation tasks. It brings together 15.6 l of usable space, RT+5 to 100 C, so the chamber can keep samples in a steady, repeatable working condition.

The series features a cleanable chamber layout, adjustable shelf spacing, a top exhaust valve for moisture removal and a silicone sealing ring that helps with insulation and noise reduction. The cabinet uses a vertical frame cabinet with high-quality cold-rolled plate forming, a powder-coated exterior, a silicone sealing ring and a top exhaust vent, with an internal working room of 250 x 250 x 250 mm and an external footprint of 385 x 415 x 565 mm. That combination of chamber size, shell build and liner material makes the unit easier to place, clean and use in routine laboratory work.

The series uses natural convection and precise temperature control to keep the chamber stable for routine culture and thermal test work. The stated input power is 300 W, and the timer range is 0 to 9999 min. It is well suited to the day-to-day work listed above, including culture, incubation, climate simulation or illuminated growth tasks, depending on the family.

Performance Features

PID temperature control supports accurate setpoint management during routine incubation. This supports more stable setpoint tracking and quicker recovery after door openings.
Timing, over-temperature alarm, deviation correction and self-tuning improve operating safety and ease of use. This helps protect samples and alerts operators when abnormal conditions occur.
Natural convection provides stable temperature distribution for standard incubation tasks. This supports more reliable day-to-day chamber use.
Silicone sealing and a top exhaust vent help maintain insulation while releasing moisture. This supports more reliable day-to-day chamber use.
Powder-coated cold-rolled steel construction improves cabinet durability and appearance. This supports more reliable day-to-day chamber use.
The S and BS liner options support different cleaning and corrosion-resistance preferences. This supports more reliable day-to-day chamber use.

APPLICATION SCOPE: Suitable for bacterial culture, fermentation, constant-temperature experiments and laboratory incubation tasks in universities, laboratories, research institutes and quality-control environments that need controlled chamber performance.

HANDLING: Check the liner type, shelving and installation space before placing the unit. Keep the exhaust vent clear and avoid blocking the cabinet airflow path. Every unit is shipped with reinforced packaging for transport safety; keep the unit upright during unloading and positioning.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: The controller supports timing, over-temperature alarm, temperature-deviation correction and self-tuning functions. The optional accessories listed on this page are communication, printing, USB storage, alarm and gas-intake add-ons. Any quoted amount refers to the chamber body only and does not include freight. Freight should be confirmed separately according to the delivery destination.

Supplier: Atomfair

Brand: ATOMFAIR®

The incubator requires a grounded AC220V 50Hz power supply and must not be operated with blocked ventilation. The unit should be kept upright during transport and positioned on a level, stable surface away from flammable materials.

Electrical Safety: Connect only to a grounded AC220V 50Hz outlet to prevent electrical shock.
Thermal Safety: Avoid contact with internal surfaces during operation to prevent burns from high temperatures.
Ventilation: Keep the top exhaust vent and internal airflow paths clear to prevent overheating.
Installation: Unpack and position the unit upright on a stable, level surface with adequate clearance.
Alarm: Enable the over-temperature alarm to automatically shut down heating if setpoint is exceeded.

HowTo

Unpack the incubator and inspect for damage before installation. Place the unit on a stable surface with adequate clearance for ventilation and power connection.

Unpack and Inspect
Keep the unit upright during unloading and positioning to avoid damage to internal components.
Clear Ventilation
Ensure the exhaust vent is unobstructed and the cabinet airflow path is free from debris.
Connect Power
Connect the power cord to a grounded AC220V 50Hz electrical outlet rated for the unit's 300 W input.
Set Temperature
Set the desired incubation temperature using the PID controller's digital interface, ensuring the setpoint is within RT+5 to 100 °C.
Enable Safety Alarms
Enable the over-temperature alarm function to automatically protect samples from temperature excursions.

FAQ

How does the natural convection design affect temperature stability and recovery speed in the Atomfair AF-HN16BS incubator?

Natural convection provides stable temperature distribution for standard incubation tasks, with a temperature fluctuation of ±0.5°C. The PID controller supports quicker recovery after door openings, though specific recovery times are not stated in the source. The combination of natural convection and PID control ensures reliable day-to-day chamber performance.

Can the Atomfair AF-HN16BS incubator be connected to a computer or external monitoring system?

Yes, the incubator offers optional RS485/232 interface and communication software, as well as USB data storage and a wireless alarm system. These accessories enable integration with external monitoring, data logging, and remote alert systems for advanced laboratory workflows.

What safety features are built into the Atomfair AF-HN16BS incubator to protect samples and alert operators?

The controller includes an over-temperature alarm, deviation correction, and self-tuning functions. The silicone sealing ring and top exhaust vent help maintain insulation and remove moisture, contributing to stable operating conditions. These features enhance sample protection and operator awareness during unattended runs.

Assessment

The Atomfair AF-HN16BS precision constant temperature incubator (15.6 L, RT+5 to 100 °C) uses natural convection and a PID controller with self-tuning to maintain ±0.5 °C fluctuation, suitable for routine bacterial culture and fermentation. The thickened stainless-steel liner and silicone sealing ring support cleaning and thermal stability, but the 300 W input and AC220V 50 Hz power requirement limit deployment to facilities with compatible electrical infrastructure.

Positive

PID control with self-tuning: The smart digital PID controller includes timing, over-temperature alarm, deviation correction, and self-tuning, enabling stable setpoint tracking and faster recovery after door openings for routine incubation.
Thickened stainless-steel liner: The BS version uses a thickened stainless-steel inner liner that improves corrosion resistance and cleanability, supporting repeated sterilization cycles in laboratory environments.

Trade-offs

AC220V 50Hz power requirement: The unit requires AC220V 50Hz power supply, which may necessitate a voltage converter or dedicated circuit in regions with 110V or 60Hz mains, adding infrastructure cost.
Natural convection limits uniformity: Natural convection provides stable temperature distribution for standard tasks but may exhibit slower thermal equilibration and larger gradients compared to forced-air systems, affecting high-precision or rapid-recovery applications.
