Heratherm IMH750-S: A Secure and Stable Environment for Your Microbiological Cultures
The Heratherm IMH750-S microbiological incubator by Thermo Fisher Scientific is designed to meet the needs of laboratories requiring high thermal performance and sample safety. This model belongs to the Advanced Protocol Security range, which integrates specific features to ensure optimal protection of sensitive samples.
With a usable volume of 702 liters, the IMH750-S allows for the incubation of large sample volumes without compromising internal condition stability. It is particularly suited for pharmaceutical, clinical, and research laboratories that require extended cycles, a high level of reproducibility, and a reliable monitoring system.
One of the key elements of this model is its mechanical convection system, which ensures outstanding temperature uniformity throughout the chamber, significantly reducing thermal deviations. This technology allows for even heat distribution, even under heavy loading or frequent door openings. The temperature is adjustable from +5°C above ambient up to 105°C, enabling the device to support a wide range of applications, including drying phases.
The IMH750-S features a certified 140°C decontamination cycle, validated by an independent institute, which effectively eliminates microbiological contaminants. This process ensures deep disinfection without the need for autoclaving or chemical agents. It is a preferred solution in environments requiring strict hygiene, while reducing downtime related to cleaning.
Safety is enhanced through a comprehensive alarm system, including over-temperature, under-temperature, and door-open alarms. Chamber access is also secured with a lockable door, restricting entry to authorized users only. An intuitive user interface, combined with a large fluorescent display, facilitates cycle programming and data reading.
For laboratories that require strict monitoring, the IMH750-S offers an access port for inserting external temperature sensors or operating internal equipment such as shakers. It is also compatible with an optional sample sensor, which displays the actual sample temperature in real time.
The inner chamber is made of AISI 304 stainless steel, corrosion-resistant and easy to clean. It features rounded corners to prevent residue buildup and simplify maintenance. The removable shelving system allows for flexible configuration and easy cleaning, making it an ideal choice for environments with strict hygiene standards.
Despite its large capacity, the IMH750-S is designed with a space-saving footprint and a stable structure on lockable casters. This facilitates its integration into various workspaces while ensuring user safety.
