INC-S series incubator with shaking: a controlled environment for your sensitive applications
Designed to meet the demanding requirements of modern laboratories, the INC-S incubator with shaking from Labbox is the perfect combination of technology and ease of use. Its ABS exterior construction makes it extremely robust, while its stainless steel interior chamber guarantees hygienic and durable incubation conditions. Between the two, a polyurethane insulating layer ensures excellent thermal insulation, optimising energy consumption and internal stability.
The INC-S is equipped with a high-performance air circulation system, ensuring perfect temperature uniformity throughout the working space. With a resolution of 0.1°C and extremely low fluctuation of ±0.1°C, cell cultures, fermentations and other sensitive applications can be carried out safely. The CTSI-070-001 version goes even further by integrating a cooling function, allowing temperatures as low as 4°C to be reached, which is essential for the specific requirements of certain experiments or to compensate for high ambient temperatures (up to 25°C).
In terms of agitation, the INC-S offers an adjustable orbital agitation speed of between 30 and 300 rpm with remarkable accuracy of ±1 rpm. The 20 mm orbital diameter ensures smooth movement, ideal for promoting homogeneous oxygenation and gentle mixing of cultures. The use of a brushless DC motor reduces maintenance and ensures a longer service life for the device, while offering quiet operation and a smooth start-up to avoid any mechanical shock to the samples.
Its large backlit LCD screen provides immediate access to all key information: temperature, shaking speed and cycle time (programmable from 0 to 9999 minutes), allowing precise monitoring of protocols. The user-friendly interface makes it easy to adjust settings in seconds, even for users unfamiliar with this type of equipment. The INC-S series incubators thus offer remarkable flexibility for a wide range of applications, from cell biology research to microbiological studies.
The universal 220–240 V / 50–60 Hz power supply makes this incubator compatible with most European electrical infrastructures. Compact and powerful, the INC-S is available in two capacities — 50 litres and 70 litres — to suit the varied needs of academic, industrial and hospital laboratories. Its optimised weight (55 kg for the 50L model and 85 kg for the 70L model) ensures good stability on the bench without compromising ease of installation.
Whether you need strict culture conditions, fermentation programmes or experiments requiring rigorous temperature and agitation control, the INC-S incubator offers a reliable, high-performance and durable solution to support your demanding scientific projects.
