Natural convection laboratory incubator LPI-101

for microbiologyfor cell culturesfor general purposes

Overview
Labotemp Portable Laboratory Incubator LPI-101 is a compact 9.2 L incubator engineered for field testing, mobile laboratories, clinical diagnostics, microbiology, food testing and research. It offers a temperature range from RT+5°C to 65°C, ±0.5°C fluctuation and 0.1°C resolution for reliable incubation of bacterial cultures, biological samples and temperature-sensitive media.

Design & Operation
The LPI-101 uses four-sided natural convection heating and an intelligent PID controller to ensure uniform temperature distribution. The interior is mirror-finish stainless steel with rounded corners for hygiene and easy cleaning. Controls are via touch buttons with a dual LED temperature display, programmable timer, parameter memory and sensor-fault detection. A glass observation window with integrated LED lighting allows sample inspection without opening the chamber. The unit is lightweight and portable with an integrated carrying handle and optional 12 V vehicle power for mobile deployments.
