Memmert ICP55 Compressor-Cooled Laboratory Incubator with Precise Temperature Control

The Memmert ICP55 compressor-cooled incubator is engineered for precise temperature-controlled incubation, breeding, and storage within a *temperature range of 0 to 60°C*. It features rapid temperature ramping capability, essential for applications requiring quick thermal transitions such as *bioprocessing, cell culture incubation,* and *molecular diagnostics workflows*.

Key technical specifications include:

• Temperature accuracy: ±0.1°C, ensuring stable conditions critical for sensitive biological samples
• Digital timer: Backwards counting with target time setting adjustable from 1 minute to 99 days, supporting long-term experimental protocols
• Chamber volume: 53 liters, suitable for moderate throughput in biotechnology and biomedical research laboratories
• Max loading capacity: 80 kg chamber load; 20 kg per internal shelf enabling flexible sample arrangement
• Dimensions: Internal space of 400 x 400 x 330 mm with external dimensions of 585 x 1153 x 514 mm for compact laboratory footprint
• Weight: 89 kg net, reflecting robust construction for reliability in demanding environments

The compressor-cooled design prevents temperature fluctuations common in electrically heated incubators, making this unit widely used in *synthetic biology research, gene editing preparations,* and *live-cell imaging experiments*. Note that the ICP55 is not suitable for sub-zero long-term storage, as icing may occur on the glass door during continuous operation below 0°C.

This incubator is an essential instrument for researchers focusing on *biomanufacturing, cell differentiation studies,* and *molecular cloning workflows*, offering precise thermal control with reliable performance in biotechnology and clinical diagnostic labs.
