Memmert IPP30 – High-performance, energy-efficient Peltier-cooled incubator for precise temperature control
The Memmert IPP30 refrigerated incubator is specially designed to meet the requirements of research, analysis and quality control laboratories that require a stable thermal environment for sample cultivation. Thanks to its temperature control system based on Peltier technology, it can achieve and maintain temperatures between 0 and +70 °C, offering the possibility of working well below ambient temperature. This wide range makes the IPP30 particularly suitable for storing sensitive samples, stability studies and microbiological cultures requiring precise control of thermal conditions.
The Memmert IPP30 is designed to combine thermal performance and energy efficiency. Using a Peltier module integrated into the rear of the unit, it provides rapid heating and cooling while significantly reducing power consumption compared to traditional compressor systems. This technical approach limits heat generation in the working environment, contributing to increased comfort in the laboratory and lower operating costs.
The digital control interface, featuring a high-definition colour display, makes it easy to program and monitor thermal cycles. Parameters such as temperature, incubation time and timing options can be set with precision, while the SetpointWAIT function ensures that the process time only starts once the target temperature has been reached. In addition, the device incorporates a calibration system that allows three customised temperature values to be set in order to adapt the incubator to the specific requirements of each experimental protocol.
The Memmert IPP30 is also designed to guarantee perfect temperature uniformity thanks to its forced ventilation system with Peltier fan. This controlled air circulation ensures that all areas of the chamber have the same thermal conditions, which is essential for achieving reproducible results. In the event of a power failure, an integrated documentation programme records the data, thus preserving the traceability of the experimental conditions.
Safety is at the heart of the Memmert IPP30's design. It is equipped with a double protection device against temperature overshoots: an adjustable electronic controller and a mechanical limiter. Its self-diagnostic system detects and signals any malfunction, allowing rapid intervention to prevent sample deterioration.
The interior, made of electropolished stainless steel, is not only durable but also easy to clean, thus meeting strict laboratory hygiene requirements. The 32-litre usable volume can accommodate different types of samples, with a maximum capacity of three shelf levels and a total load capacity of up to 60 kg. The double door, consisting of a fully insulated outer door and a glass inner door, allows the contents to be viewed without disturbing the internal conditions.
Compact and ergonomic, the Memmert IPP30 fits easily into any working environment. Its dimensions and small footprint make it a wise choice for laboratories with limited space that require reliable and consistent thermal performance. Its versatility, precision and energy efficiency make it an indispensable tool for all applications requiring rigorous and long-lasting thermal control.
