Key Features
Specially designed for use with microtitre plates, which can be
difficult to incubate. In conventional incubators, when 4 or more
plates are placed on a shelf, they block the air circulation, which
can seriously impair temperature distribution.
The Stuart® SI19 Incubator overcomes this problem with forced
air circulation, which blows preheated air across the shelves
rather than just through them. Microtitre plates are also prone
to drying out during incubation. The SI19 overcomes this with a
water tray to increase the humidity within the chamber.
The bright LED display indicates temperature and the encoder
control allows rapid and accurate temperature setting. An
integral over-temperature protection system automatically tracks
the set temperature and controls the heater in the event of a
fault. Error codes are displayed if a fault has occurred or if the set
temperature has been interrupted.
An acrylic upwards opening door provides excellent access to
the interior. The stainless steel chamber features 4 shelves each
accommodating 6 plates (or 12 stacked in 2 layers). Shelves are
captive and slide out for easy loading.
