BB 15 CO2 INCUBATOR 230V SS (HERAEUS)
Our Heraeus BB 15 Function Line CO2 incubator provides everything you need for the good
growth of cell and tissue cultures.
Major Features
• Precise temperature and CO2 control for optimal growth conditions
• Powerful humidification system for short recovery times
• Solid copper interior for permanent contamination control (optional)
Temperature Control
A precise Pt 1000 temperature sensor controls the air jacket heating for constant temperature. In case of failure,
the system is equipped with a second circuit, taking over control to keep the temperature at the preset value.
CO2 Control
The CO2 concentration is measured with a highly reliable TCD sensor. The sensor is auto
calibrated on every auto-start routine.
Humidification
For reducing the surface area, the water pan has been eliminated and the bottom of the chamber is used as a water reservoir.
Therefore, a quicker evaporation rate has been achieved, through a greater water surface area and supported by the direct heat transfer from the bottom of the chamber.
Minimal Surface
The BB 15 chamber is consequently designed for a less contamination-prone surface area. It doesn¡¯t have any air ducts and no duplicate side walls.
The shelf system has been reduced to the absolute minimum. Even the water pan has been eliminated. Therefore, the BB 15 has up to 50% less surface than other incubators.
