Controlled conditions for reproducible cell culture
Stable incubation with built-in contamination control
Condensation-free operation
Active humidity control supports stable conditions up to 95% RH at 37°C.
180°C sterilisation
Sterilise the chamber and sensors in 60 minutes without disassembly.
HEPA-filtered air
The full chamber air volume is filtered every 60 seconds.
Battery-backed CO₂
CO₂ regulation continues during a power interruption.
Secure access
Optional RFID or fingerprint access supports controlled workflows.
Remote monitoring
USB, Ethernet and mobile alerts support data access and oversight.
