In-VitroCell NU-5720 Direct Heat CO2 Incubator

The In-VitroCell Model NU-5720 is a direct heat 5.65ft3 (160 L) capacity CO2 Incubator featuring humidity monitoring and control using a sensor and a 3-liter reservoir to inject water vapor to meet setpoint. Model NU-5720 provides optimal growth conditions for mammalian cells sensitive to humidity fluctuations.

Overview

In-VitroCell model NU-5720 is a CO2 Incubator designed to control relative humidity (RH) levels in the growth chamber better through a sensor and reservoir in place of a water pan. The RH control method allows for greater accuracy to maintain a stable RH percentage by injecting water vapor into the growth chamber to meet the setpoint. RH control is perfect for research samples prone to desiccation or dryer environments.

Precise Humidity Control

Experience optimal growth conditions in our incubator with its innovative humidity control system. Equipped with a 3-liter external reservoir, it ensures precise relative humidity levels of up to 90% in the growth chamber. The air is skillfully directed through a vapor-saturated evaporate box, adjusting humidity per the RH sensor's feedback to maintain your desired set point. This feature promises consistent, ideal humidity for superior cultivation results.

Dual Decontamination Cycles

Our incubator's advanced direct heat technology enables a thorough 145°C dry and 95°C humidified decontamination cycle, completed efficiently overnight in just 8 hours. The NuTouch control system offers on-screen instructions and tracks cycle progress, ensuring an effective and user-friendly decontamination process.

Constant Contamination Control

NuAire's advanced features significantly reduce contamination risks in your laboratory. The growth chamber maintains a slight positive pressure to prevent the ingress of contaminated air, ensuring an environment similar to an ISO Class 5 cleanroom, thanks to air and gas passing through 99.99% efficient HEPA filters. The design's smooth, rounded corners further minimize contamination risks. Moreover, our overnight decontamination cycle, reaching 145° Celsius dry or 95° Celsius humidified, offers an effective solution against contamination. Choose NuAire for superior contamination control and enhanced safety in your laboratory.

Advanced IR Sensor Technology

Experience unparalleled precision in CO2 level control within your growth chamber with our advanced single-source dual wave infrared (IR) sensor. This innovative technology focuses on wavelengths absorbed exclusively by CO2, ensuring the measurement remains unaffected by other components like water vapor. The result is a consistently stable output that minimizes drift and reduces the need for frequent calibrations, maintaining optimal pH levels effortlessly. Trust in our cutting-edge sensor design for accurate, reliable, and maintenance-friendly operation in your laboratory.
