Heracell™ VIOS 250i CO2 incubator with copper chamber Achieve your next breakthrough. The Thermo Scientific™ Heracell™ VIOS CO 2 incubator is specifically designed to deliver the performance reliability, ease of operation, and value required to support a range of culturing needs from basic research to the demanding, leading-edge applications, so you're ready for whatever comes next. Better solutions for optimal cell growth. Our CO 2 incubators with 100% copper chambers provide the ideal in vitro environment. Large 255L capacity provides space for high throughput applications and accommodates spaces for culture devices for larger sample output. Direct Heat Chamber 255 L (9.0 ft.3) 100% solid copper chamber with compact footprint, easily stackable Standard left-hinged door, can be relocated on site by trained service THRIVE active airflow Fan in the chamber gently distributes clean, humidified air throughout the chamber and thus ensuring homogeneous conditions Rapid recovery of all parameters in 10 minutes or less for stable culture conditions Auto-stop function disables the fan while the door is open to minimize air exchange ISO Class 5 HEPA filtration Internal HEPA eliminates the total air volume in the chamber filtered every 60 seconds ISO Class 5 clean room air quality is achieved in culture chamber within 5 minutes Continuous protection prevents airborne contaminants from settling on interior surfaces Covered integral moisture reservoir Directly heated water reservoir maintains consistently high relative humidity and prevents cultures from drying out Cover prevents particles and spilled media from building up in the reservoir, keeping the water clean Separated water creates a condensation-free incubation chamber, limiting the area where contaminants can spread 5x faster recovery of the Moisture levels than traditional water pan designs Easy water handling: Moisture reservoir fills and drains without removing trays or cultures Water level sensor indicates refill required Optional Steri-Run high-temperature sterilization cycle Independently validated cycle running overnight ensures complete elimination of all biological contaminants 180°C cycle for uniform 12 log sterilization on all chamber surfaces Simplifies cleaning and eliminates separate autoclaving and reassembly of components I ntuitive, interactive iCAN touchscreen control Bright LED screen to monitor all interactions with the incubator Provides insight into changes in the culture environment with graphing of performance trends, error and usage logs Convenient on-screen prompts and reminders for users ensure easy navigation Easier to use through Language selection: English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Japanese and Mandarin In-situ sensors and probes for precise control Dual temperature sensors for over-temperature protection with operational backup (TC) Thermal conductivity CO 2 sensor with rH compensation for fast recovery and steady operation Chamber Material: 100% Copper Disinfection Time: Less than 12 hours CO2 Concentration Range: 1 to 20% CO2 Sensor Technology: TC Sensor Oxygen Control: ±0.1°C O2 Sensor Technology: TC Sensor Humidity Delivery: Integrated Res ervoir Relative humidity: ? 93% Temperature range (metric): 3°C above ambient to 55°C External height (imperial): 38.1 inches External height (metric): 968 mm External width (imperial): 30.5 inches External width (metric): 774 mm External Length (Imperial): 36.8 in.
