Precision refrigerated drying with the KB 240 from Binder
The Binder KB 240 cooling incubator is a high-tech solution for laboratories that require stable, controlled and reproducible thermal conditions. With a temperature range from -10 °C to +100 °C, it is suitable for cooling applications as well as incubation or stability testing at constant temperatures. This model from Binder's KB series is perfectly suited to the strict requirements of the pharmaceutical, cosmetics, biotechnology, food and life sciences industries, where precision is essential.
At the heart of the KB 240 is a spacious stainless steel interior chamber with a volume of 247 litres, designed for maximum ease of cleaning while ensuring optimum thermal inertia. Thanks to even temperature distribution provided by an adjustable fan and a high-performance air circulation system, the user benefits from a thermally uniform environment across the entire usable area, even with heavy loads. This uniformity is reinforced by the use of a highly accurate electronic PID controller, allowing customised temperature profiles or repetitive cycles to be programmed with ease via the modern user interface.
The KB 240's refrigeration technology is based on an efficient compressor combined with an environmentally friendly refrigerant, guaranteeing high performance with optimised energy consumption. The system is equipped with redundant safety devices, ensuring reliable protection of sensitive samples even in the event of a fault. An intelligent automatic and self- ing defrosting system prevents ice build-up that could disrupt thermal cycles, while minimising interruptions to operation.
Another advantage is connectivity. The KB 240 model is equipped with an RS422 and USB interface, enabling data management in accordance with modern traceability requirements ( e.g. in a GLP or GMP environment). Specific Binder software is available for monitoring, documenting and exporting parameters in real time. In addition, an independent temperature alarm and a potential-free contact ensure maximum safety for critical processes.
The ergonomic and robust design of the KB 240 also includes a double-sealed outer door, a glass inner door and height-adjustable shelves . These features facilitate daily use, maintenance and adaptation of the chamber to user requirements. The materials used guarantee not only excellent durability but also chemical resistance to agents used in laboratory environments.
The Binder KB 240 cooling incubator combines state-of-the-art technology, high loading capacity, high safety and user-friendliness. It thus meets the most stringent standards in terms of quality, reliability and performance, while also being environmentally sustainable thanks to its low energy consumption and eco-friendly components.
