Collection: Peltier-cooled incubators

Innovative and ecological Pol-Eko incubators ILP with cooling system based on the Peltier cell technology.

The most important advantages of incubators with ILP Peltier modules are:

  • No vibrations- through the use of Peltier cells, vibrations previously generated by the compressor are eliminated
  • Fluctuation and variation- the cooling system based on Peltier cells allows to achieve excellent fluctuation and variation additionally the time of reaching the set temperature, e. g. after opening the door, is much shorter
  • Lighter and smaller design- Peltier cell cooling system reduces the size of the device and its weight
  • Environmentally friendly- removing the compressor eliminates the use of refrigerant gases that have a negative impact on the environment

Enhancing research with peltier-cooled incubators: Precise temperature control

Peltier technology, also known as thermoelectric technology, exploits the thermoelectric phenomenon where heat is transferred by an electric current. The key component of this technology is a thermoelectric circuit, also known as a Peltier circuit, consisting of wafers made of various semiconductors.

Interestingly, Peltier-cooled incubators have become increasingly popular among researchers, offering numerous advantages over traditional incubators. The first advantage that attracts the interest of users is their efficient cooling feature. Peltier technology ensures a stable and accurate temperature inside the incubator, which is crucial for a successful incubation process. This feature allows users to maintain ideal conditions for research.

Pol-Eko ILP incubators with cooling system based on the peltier cell technology: Ecological and innovative solution for your laboratory

The Pol-Eko ILP peltier-cooled incubators are manufactured in 4 sizes, from 56 to 749 l. They are available in Smart and Smart PRO controller versions. The unit can be made of powder-coated sheet metal in light grey with a graphite extension or structural stainless steel (linen).

All Peltier-cooled laboratory incubators are equipped with an internal glass door to facilitate viewing of the load during the process (optionally, the unit may have an external door with a vision window so that processes can be observed without opening the door, as long as the research being conducted allows light to enter the chamber).

    • Temperature range 0…+70°C
    • Energy saving design - Saves on average by 40 % energy compared to traditional compressor unit incubator
    • No need for refrigerants - environmentally consious solution
    • Excellent temperature stability and uniformity
    • Easy to operate with intuitive interface
    • Manufacturer's warranty of 24 months
Peltier cooled incubator - how it works

Peltier-element technology ensures vibration-free operation 

Cooling system based on Peltier technology improves temperature recovery time for example after door opening.
