CO2 laboratory incubator CB-S 170

hot aircarbon dioxideinfrared

Product description
The CB-S 170 CO₂ incubator is a durable, economical unit intended for routine cell culture workflows in cell production and academic laboratories. Contamination is mitigated by automatic 180°C hot-air sterilization; CO₂ control is maintained by a drift-free infrared (IR) CO₂ sensor with real-time measurement.

Benefits

• Safe – maximum protection against contamination for cell cultures
• Reliable – stable environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, CO₂)
• Smart – straightforward routine cleaning and user-friendly operation
• Economical – efficient operation without disposable consumables

Important characteristics

• Humidification system with condensation protection
• Proven anti-contamination concept with 180°C hot-air sterilization
• Drift-free IR CO₂ sensor for real-time CO₂ measurement
• Seamless stainless steel inner chamber
• CO₂ mixing jet using Venturi effect
• PID controller with clear LCD display
• Internal data logger; measured values exportable in open format via USB
• Troubleshooting system with visual and acoustic alarms
• Interfaces: Ethernet, USB, potential-free alarm contact
