CO2 laboratory incubator CB 170

hot airinfraredfor scientific research

Product overview
The CB 170 (CB‑S 170) CO₂ incubator is designed for routine and advanced cell culture workflows in research, clinical and bioproduction environments. It supports controlled CO₂ and optional O₂ regulation, offers hot‑air sterilization and comprehensive data logging and interface options.

Benefits

• Contamination protection by 180 °C hot‑air auto‑sterilization
• Stable culture environment with precise temperature and CO₂ control
• Low maintenance: fanless interior and optimized humidification reduce manual intervention
• Data traceability via internal logger and USB/Ethernet interfaces

Key features

• Optimized double‑pan humidification system with condensation protection
• 180 °C hot‑air anti‑contamination concept
• Heat‑sterilizable IR single‑beam CO₂ sensor
• Seamless stainless‑steel inner chamber with flange shelf supports
• Fanless interior with Venturi CO₂ mixing nozzle for homogeneous atmosphere
• Intuitive touchscreen controller and visual/acoustic alarms
• Fail‑safe CO₂ system to protect culture pH
• Interfaces: Ethernet, USB, potential‑free alarm contact
