Overview

The In-VitroCell CO2 Incubator Model NU-8631 is a beacon of innovation for Lab Managers, Principal Investigators, and Laboratory Technicians striving for excellence in cell culture applications. Its design integrates a water jacket, heater, and precise temperature probes to regulate the growth chamber's environment expertly. This model shines in tasks that demand strict control over oxygen levels, offering specialized capabilities for maintaining suppressed oxygen levels or hypoxic conditions. Oxygen is meticulously monitored via an advanced sensor, and nitrogen gas is injected as needed to reach the desired setpoint. This incubator is not just about maintaining optimal conditions; it's about ease of use and peace of mind. With a user-friendly interface, superior filtration system, and continuous monitoring of chamber conditions, the NU-8631 guarantees that your cell cultures, particularly in critical areas such as stem cell and age-related research, are nurtured in an environment where precision meets protection. The NU-8631 is more than an incubator; it is a pivotal tool in advancing scientific discovery and research excellence.

Optimize Cell Growth with Precision Oxygen Control

For labs focusing on sensitive cell cultures prone to stress and DNA damage, our CO2 Incubators with Oxygen Control are a game-changer. Featuring an advanced O2 sensor, these incubators meticulously monitor and regulate oxygen levels within the growth chamber. By injecting Nitrogen (N2) gas to adjust oxygen to the desired set point, they cater to a wide range of research applications, including studies on the brain, eyes, liver, heart, and kidneys. This precise oxygen control is crucial for maintaining the integrity and health of delicate cell lines, making it an indispensable tool for Lab Managers, Principal Investigators, and Laboratory Technicians dedicated to groundbreaking cell culture work.

Advanced IR Sensor for Precise CO2 Control

Designed for laboratory excellence, our single-source dual wave infrared (IR) sensor expertly controls CO2 levels within the growth chamber, ensuring an optimal pH environment for cell culture success. Utilizing specific wavelengths absorbed exclusively by CO2, this sensor delivers highly accurate measurements unaffected by other components like water vapor. Its advanced design results in a stable output, minimizing drift and reducing the frequency of calibrations. With this state-of-the-art technology, managing the delicate balance of CO2 in your growth chamber becomes more reliable and efficient, enhancing the quality of your cell culture work.

Optimal Temperature Control with Water Jacket Incubation

The In-VitroCell Water Jacket CO2 Incubators are a cornerstone for precise cell culture growth, featuring an expansive 18-gallon (68.1-liter) water jacket. This innovative design envelops the inner chamber, ensuring a uniformly maintained temperature within ±0.2°C. Enhancing this stability, the R5 insulation along the outer chamber walls significantly reduces heat loss. The microprocessor-controlled door and perimeter heaters adeptly respond to ambient room temperatures. These heaters can be manually adjusted up to ±20 percent, providing added control to mitigate condensation within the growth chamber. With the In-VitroCell Water Jacket CO2 Incubators, you can trust an environment that fosters optimal cell growth and development.

Superior Cleanability with Smooth Design

Crafted for the meticulous needs of Lab Managers, Principal Investigators, and Laboratory Technicians, the growth chamber of our CO2 incubator is a model of hygienic design. It features a crevice-free architecture constructed from robust 16 gauge, type 304L polished stainless steel. This thoughtful design ensures that every inch of the chamber walls is smooth, complete with rounded corners for more efficient cleaning. This eliminates the hard-to-reach spots often found in conventional 90-degree corners, making maintaining a contaminant-free environment for sensitive cell cultures easier. The added convenience of easily removable shelving, supports, and guide rails, all autoclavable, underscores our commitment to providing a cell culture incubator that meets and exceeds the stringent standards required in scientific research settings.
