Corning LSE Mini Incubator 115 V
The Corning 6800 LSE Mini Incubator is a compact, high-performance benchtop incubator designed for environmental stabilization in microbiology and cell culture applications. This unit features a sophisticated microprocessor control system that ensures a stable and uniform thermal environment despite its small footprint. It is an ideal solution for labs requiring dedicated space for small-batch incubations or for labs where bench space is highly restricted.
Technical Performance and Design
- Natural Convection Heating: Utilizes a natural convection system to circulate air, which reduces the risk of sample cross-contamination and prevents the desiccation of sensitive cultures that can occur with forced-air systems.
- Broad Temperature Range: Capable of heating samples from ambient plus 5C up to 60C, making it suitable for a wide variety of biological protocols.
- Durable Interior: The chamber is constructed from corrosion-resistant materials and features rounded corners to facilitate thorough cleaning and decontamination.
- Large Viewing Area: The door includes a large plexiglass window that allows for clear observation of samples without opening the door, maintaining internal temperature stability.
