In-VitroCell NU-5831 Direct Heat CO2 Incubator

The In-VitroCell NU-5831 is a specialized incubator that regulates oxygen levels within its growth chamber. It employs a Zirconia Ceramic O2 sensor to monitor oxygen levels and introduces Nitrogen gas to maintain the desired setpoint when needed. With a 200-liter capacity chamber and segmented inner doors for environmental control, the NU-5831 is ideal for research applications such as age-related studies and stem cell research.

Overview

The In-VitroCell NU-5831 represents a state-of-the-art Direct Heat Hypoxic CO2 Incubator that can precisely control oxygen levels within its growth chamber. It has an advanced Zirconia Ceramic O2 sensor that continuously monitors oxygen concentrations within the chamber. Should oxygen levels exceed the desired setpoint, the system activates a nitrogen (N2) gas injection mechanism to restore the ideal conditions.

Featuring a generous 200-liter chamber capacity, the NU-5831 can be optionally configured with segmented inner doors to effectively preserve the chamber's controlled environment even during door openings. This makes it an ideal choice for various applications, including studies related to aging, stem cell research, and other scientific endeavors where precise environmental control is paramount.

Optimized Oxygen Control for Delicate Cells

The CO2 Incubator models with Oxygen control are specifically designed for sensitive cell lines susceptible to stress and DNA damage. These incubators are equipped with an advanced O2 sensor, accurately monitoring the oxygen levels within the growth chamber. Nitrogen (N2) gas is injected as needed to suppress the oxygen to the desired set point to maintain the optimal environment. This precise control over oxygen levels makes these models highly suitable for a wide range of research applications involving critical organ cells like the brain, eyes, liver, heart, and kidneys.

Safeguarding Cells with Advanced Contamination Control

NuAire incubators are designed with advanced features to significantly reduce contamination risks. Maintaining a slight positive pressure inside the chamber prevents contaminated laboratory air from entering the growth environment. Air and gas are thoroughly filtered through a 99.99% efficient HEPA filter at 0.3 microns before entering the chamber, mirroring the conditions of an ISO Class 5 cleanroom. The incubator's design, featuring smooth, rounded corners, eliminates potential hiding spots for contaminants. An overnight decontamination cycle, reaching 145° Celsius in dry conditions or 95° Celsius in humidified settings, robustly combats any contamination, ensuring your cell cultures remain protected. This commitment to contamination control is another reason why NuAire is the preferred choice for your laboratory's safety and efficiency.

Uniform Heating for Optimal Incubation

NuAire's direct heat incubator is ingeniously designed for precise temperature control. Featuring strategically placed heating elements around the chamber, in the door perimeter, and within the door itself, it guarantees a balanced temperature within its robust steel, insulated chamber. This meticulous arrangement ensures that the door and perimeter heaters can be independently adjusted even in challenging ambient temperatures, maintaining consistent uniformity throughout the incubation process. This thoughtful design caters to the critical needs of delicate cell cultures, making it an ideal choice for laboratories seeking reliable and efficient incubation solutions.

Advanced Filtration for Pure Cultures

The In-VitroCell CO2 Incubator offers an unparalleled level of contamination control through its continuous HEPA filtration system. This advanced design actively samples air from the chamber, directs it through a highly efficient HEPA filter located externally, and returns purified air to maintain a clean air environment within. Coupled with high-heat decontamination cycles, this system ensures a clean, slightly pressurized atmosphere and provides a multi-layered defense against contamination. This meticulous approach to air quality safeguards your sensitive cell cultures, making the In-VitroCell an essential tool for precise and reliable cell growth in any laboratory setting.
