ICP260: The High-Precision Refrigerated Incubator for Your Laboratory Needs
The ICP260 from Memmert is a high-performance refrigerated incubator designed to ensure optimal thermal regulation, essential for laboratories and research centers. Offering an adjustable temperature range from -12°C to +60°C, it provides perfect control over experimental conditions, ensuring the stability required for incubation, cell culture, and the preservation of sensitive samples. Its compressor-based refrigeration system, using an environmentally friendly cryogen (CO2 - R744), guarantees optimized energy consumption while preventing sample desiccation.
The ICP260 stands out with its precise and intuitive control via the ControlCOCKPIT TwinDISPLAY, a digital PID microprocessor regulator that ensures efficient temperature management. This system is enhanced by two Pt100 thermosensors in 4-wire technology, which mutually monitor thermal conditions for unmatched reliability. With a display resolution of 0.1°C, this incubator allows for precise reading of set and actual temperatures, ensuring stable performance for critical applications.
Ergonomics and safety are priorities for Memmert. The ICP260 is equipped with a safety system, including a mechanical temperature limiter and visual and audible alarms in case of exceeding critical thresholds. It also integrates AutoSAFETY technology, which automatically monitors temperature deviations and protects samples from the risk of overheating or excessive cooling. An integrated self-diagnostic system allows for the rapid detection of anomalies, providing increased reliability.
The robustness of this incubator is ensured by its stainless steel construction, guaranteeing high durability and easy maintenance. Its inner chamber and stainless steel shelves offer optimal resistance to chemicals and thermal variations. The insulated stainless steel door and inner glass door allow for visual control without compromising the stability of internal conditions.
The ICP260 also features a communication system, with the ability to program, manage, and download thermal cycles via a USB port or Ethernet interface using AtmoCONTROL software. In the event of a power failure, the device automatically saves the current program state, ensuring the continuity of experiments without major interruption.
With an internal volume of 256 liters, this incubator is ideal for applications requiring precise temperature control in an optimized space. It can accommodate up to 9 shelves and support a maximum load of 200 kg, making it perfectly suited for laboratories working on rigorous and demanding protocols.
The installation of the ICP260 is facilitated by its integrated braked casters, allowing for easy movement and enhanced stability. It is designed to operate under controlled ambient conditions, with a recommended temperature between 15°C and 28°C (up to 34°C with a limited thermal range) and a maximum non-condensing humidity of 70%.
