Binder BF 115 Incubator: Reliable Performance for Laboratory Incubation
The BF 115 incubator from the Avantgarde.Line series developed by Binder is a professional-grade device designed for incubation processes requiring precision, thermal homogeneity, and stability. Intended for microbiology, cell biology, or pharmaceutical research laboratories, it meets current standards in thermal control while ensuring ease of use and reliable monitoring.
With an internal volume of 114 liters, the BF 115 provides excellent capacity for medium- to high-load protocols. Its forced convection system ensures uniform circulation of heated air, allowing optimal temperature maintenance regardless of the chamber’s loading level. This performance is further enhanced by Binder’s APT.line™ technology, which ensures consistent heat distribution throughout the entire chamber, eliminating cold or hot spots.
The incubator is equipped with a clear and intuitive LCD controller, enabling precise programming of incubation cycles. With its timing functions, such as scheduled start and stop, it easily integrates into automated workflows. Its modern design includes a standard USB interface, facilitating data transfer for test monitoring and temperature archiving.
The BF 115 model also stands out for its rapid heat-up time and extremely short thermal recovery period after door opening (3 minutes at 37 °C), minimizing thermal disturbances during sample handling. This makes it an ideal device for environments where frequent door openings are required.
In terms of safety, the BF 115 features a Class 3.1 safety thermostat (DIN 12880 standard) with visual alarm, ensuring controlled operation even in the event of a fault. The interior safety glass door allows visual inspection of samples without fully opening the unit, thereby limiting temperature fluctuations.
Maintenance is simplified thanks to a design free of permanently installed components inside the working chamber. The stainless-steel interior ensures impeccable hygiene and long service life, even with intensive use.
The BF 115 model is also stackable, which is a significant advantage in laboratories where space optimization is critical. With its controlled energy consumption, it fits seamlessly into facilities focused on energy efficiency.
The Binder BF 115 incubator combines thermal reliability, user-friendliness, and high-quality construction. It is built to last while meeting the stringent requirements of microbiological and bacteriological applications.
