Description

Achieve your next breakthrough. The Thermo Scientific™ Forma™ Steri-Cycle™ i160 CO₂ 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 CO₂ incubators with non-corrosive stainless-steel or copper interior chambers provide the ideal in-vitro environment.

• Direct Heat Chamber
• 165L electropolished stainless steel chamber or copper with compact footprint, easily stackable
• Adjustable, perforated shelving
• Reversible exterior door for added flexibility
• THRIVE Active Airflow 
• In-chamber fan gently distributes clean, humidified air throughout the chamber ensuring homogeneous conditions
• Fast recovery of all parameters ten minutes or less for stable culturing conditions
• Auto-stop function disables fan operation during door openings to minimize air exchange
• ISO 5 HEPA Filtration
• In-chamber HEPA continuously filters the entire chamber air volume every 60 seconds
• ISO 5 clean room air quality is achieved in the culture chamber within 5 minutes
• Continuous protection by minimizing ability for contaminants to settle on interior surfaces
• Protected Humidity Reservoir
• Directly heated water reservoir provides stable high relative humidity levels, preventing culture desiccation
• Condensation free inner chamber, prevents a breeding ground for contaminant
• 5X faster humidity recovery than traditional water pan designs
• In situ sensors and probes
• Dual temperature probes for over temperature protection with operational back up
• Choice of thermal conductivity (TC) with rh compensation or single beam, dual wavelength infrared (IR) CO₂ sensor
• O2 control ranges 1 to 21% (hypoxic) and 5 to 90% (hyperoxic)
• Steri-Run, high temperature defection cycle
• Overnight cycle simplifies cleaning and eliminates the need for separate autoclaving of parts
• 180°C cycle assures uniform 6-log sterilization on all chamber surfaces
• Intuitive, interactive iCAN™ Touchscreen Control
• Bright, door-mounted display for easy accessibility and viewing
• Selectable languages simplify operation: English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Japanese and Mandarin
