Refrigerated incubators: essential equipment for controlled environments

Refrigerated incubators stand as indispensable assets within scientific laboratories, offering precise control over temperature, humidity, and other environmental variables critical for cultivating delicate biological samples. These specialized chambers provide researchers with the ability to mimic specific conditions, ensuring the optimal growth of cell cultures, microorganisms, and various biological materials. By maintaining stable and controlled environments, refrigerated incubators safeguard against fluctuations that could compromise experimental integrity, fostering reliable and reproducible results in fields ranging from microbiology to pharmaceuticals. Whether nurturing bacterial cultures or housing sensitive reagents, these instruments serve as the cornerstone of scientific inquiry, facilitating the advancement of knowledge and innovation across diverse disciplines.

Explore Pol-Eko's advanced cooled incubators ST- and IL-series

Pol-Eko's range of cooled incubators (ST) is designed with precision and security in mind. Featuring internal LED lighting for enhanced visibility, these incubators boast solid, lockable chamber doors to safeguard valuable samples. Available in both Smart and Smart PRO controller versions, these models offer flexibility and advanced control options for various applications. Ideal for stability testing with exceptional temperature accuracy, cooled incubators find widespread use in storing vaccines and medicines within refrigerated conditions, maintaining temperatures between +18°C and +20°C. Particularly crucial in environments lacking air conditioning, these units ensure optimal storage conditions even in elevated ambient temperatures.

Meanwhile, Pol-Eko's refrigerated incubators (IL) offer additional features, including double doors with locks for added security and easy access ports for external sensors. Crafted from acid-resistant stainless steel, the chamber interiors facilitate effortless cleaning and maintenance. Available exclusively in a forced-air version, these IL incubators provide consistent airflow without the need for ventilation chimneys.

Moreover, optional photoperiod or phytotron functions enable precise control over both temperature and lighting, simulating natural day/night cycles for specialized research needs. With a diverse range of capacities spanning from 56 to 749 liters, Pol-Eko ensures there's an incubator suited for every laboratory requirement.
