Key Features:

Direct Heat Chamber

• Spacious 255 L (9.0 cu ft.) electropolished stainless steel or copper chamber designed for an efficient, compact footprint.
• Stackable design provides flexible lab space utilization.
• Standard left-hand door swing is field reversible with qualified service support.

THRIVE Active Airflow

• In-chamber fan ensures gentle, uniform distribution of clean, humidified air for consistent environmental conditions.
• Fast recovery of all parameters within 10 minutes or less, critical for stable culturing environments.
• Auto-stop function disables fan during door openings, minimizing air exchange and preserving sterile conditions.

ISO Class 5 HEPA Filtration

• In-chamber HEPA filter continuously purifies the entire air volume every 60 seconds.
• ISO Class 5 air quality is established within the chamber in under 5 minutes.
• Ongoing protection against airborne contaminants helps maintain sterile surfaces.

Integrated Humidity Reservoir

• Directly heated water reservoir supports stable high relative humidity levels, effectively preventing culture desiccation.
• Capped design prevents particles and spilled media from contaminating the reservoir, ensuring clean operation.
• Segregated reservoir creates a condensation-free environment, reducing contaminant proliferation.
• Dramatically faster humidity recovery—5X quicker than traditional systems.
• Convenient fill/drain capability without disrupting shelf or culture setups.
• Water level sensor alerts when a refill is necessary, streamlining maintenance.

Steri-Run High Temperature Sterilization Cycle

• Independently validated overnight sterilization cycle guarantees comprehensive eradication of biological contaminants.
• 180°C cycle is optimized for uniform, effective 12-log sterilization across all surfaces.
• Streamlines cleaning processes, eliminating the need for separate autoclaving.

iCAN™ Touchscreen Control

• Bright, intuitive LED touchscreen for easy monitoring of all incubator functions.
• Provides real-time visibility into environmental changes through performance trend graphs and usage logs.
• User-friendly prompts guide efficient navigation.
• Select from multiple languages including English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Japanese, and Mandarin.

Wireless Monitoring Solution

Enhance your monitoring capabilities with the optional DeviceLink HUB™, which integrates seamlessly with Thermo Fisher Cloud for real-time condition tracking.

• Monitors chamber temperature, gas levels, and alerts via RS-232 or USB connections.
• Receive email and mobile notifications for alarms and system alerts.

In Situ Sensors and Probes

• Dual temperature probes provide over-temperature protection, ensuring reliable backup measures.
• Thermal conductivity (TC) CO2 sensor with relative humidity compensation offers rapid response and stability.
