Heracell™ VIOS 160i and 250i CO2 incubator with stainless steel chamber Cell culture success across the board. The Thermo Scientific™ Heracell™ VIOS CO 2 Incubator is purpose-built to provide the reliable performance, ease of use and value needed to support a wide range of cultivation needs - from basic research to demanding, state-of-the-art applications. So you are ready for whatever may come. Better solutions for optimal cell growth. Our CO 2 incubators with corrosion-resistant stainless steel inner chambers provide an ideal in vitro environment. Directly Heated Incubator 165 L (5.8 cu. ft.) or 255 L (9.0 cu. ft.) electropolished stainless steel chamber, compact footprint, easily stackable. Door hinge is on the right as standard, changeable door hinge for more flexibility. THRIVE concept with active airflow A fan gently distributes clean, humidified air throughout the chamber, thus ensuring homogeneous conditions. All critical growth parameters are restored in less than 10 minutes after opening the door, allowing your cells to develop optimally. Auto-stop function automatically deactivates fan operation when the door is opened in order to keep air exchange to a minimum. HEPA air filtration for high air purity (ISO 5) The HEPA filter cleans the air stream of microbes and particles to protect the cultures from contamination. To ensure air quality, the air in the chamber is circulated every 60 seconds. The modern HEPA filter technology ensures air conditions that correspond to clean room class ISO 5 within just five minutes after the door has been opened for 30 seconds. Continuous protection against contaminants on internal surfaces Water reservoir with protective cover Directly heated water reservoir provides stable high relative humidity, preventing culture from drying out. Coverage limits the ability of particles and spilled media to settle in the container. Condensation-free humidification system ensures that the inner container remains dry and there is no breeding ground for contamination. Directly heated water reservoir provides 5x faster humidity recovery time compared to removable pans For easier water management, the liquid reservoir can be filled or emptied without removing shelves or cultures. In-situ sensing technology Dual temperature sensors with PID controller with over-temperature protection prevent overheating during temperature recovery. Choice of thermal conductivity (TC) CO 2 sensor with relative humidity compensation or dual wavelength single-beam infrared (IR) CO 2 sensor O 2 control ranges of 1 to 21% (hypoxic) and 5 to 90% (hyperoxic) Steri-Run High Temperature Sterilization Cycle One-button high temperature sterilization simplifies cleaning, can be set overnight and eliminates the need for separate autoclaving of parts. 180 °C cycle ensures uniform sterilization of all chamber surfaces (germ reduction of 6 log levels) and eliminates biological pollutants. Intuitive, interactive iCAN™ touchscreen control Convenient on-screen information and reminders for easy navigation Language selection facilitates operation: English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Japanese and Mandarin Visibility of changes in culture environment in performance graphs and error and data logs Ordering Information: Dual chamber models include stacking adapter and caster stand.
