Fukushima Galilei FMU-054I Low Temperature Incubator 50L with Programmable Temperature Control

The Fukushima Galilei FMU-054I is a 50L low temperature incubator designed for precise temperature control critical in biotechnology, molecular diagnostics, and cell culture research applications. It features an advanced 8-step programmable temperature control system with two pattern options, allowing flexible experiment protocols with step durations ranging from 0 to 99 hours. Temperature settings can be finely adjusted in increments of 0.5°C, with enhanced resolution of 0.1°C specifically within the critical 35–40°C range, supporting precise incubation processes such as gene editing and synthetic biology workflows.

The incubator maintains temperature stability using compressor ON/OFF control with an accuracy of ±1.5°C and heater proportional control achieving ±0.5°C accuracy at 37°C, ensuring optimal conditions for live-cell imaging and bioprocessing activities. The system uses environmentally compliant R-134a refrigerant. Safety measures include digital temperature alarms with audible buzzer alerts for temperature abnormalities, ensuring reliable operation in sensitive biomanufacturing pipeline environments.

Physically, it offers internal dimensions of 400×335×370 mm within a compact footprint (483×487×685 mm external with protrusions), weighing 40 kg — suitable for benchtop placement in clinical diagnostics laboratories or cell biology research facilities. A φ40 mm cable port facilitates integration with auxiliary measurement devices without compromising incubation integrity. The unit operates on a standard single-phase 100 V power supply and provides a backup memory of approximately 48 hours for programmed settings.

This used unit is sold as-is, and while it retains many of its original features, users should verify performance against current research requirements. Overall, the FMU-054I is a reliable laboratory incubator option supporting temperature-sensitive biotechnological experiments and molecular biology processes requiring consistent thermal environments.
