Thermo Forma Model 310 Direct Heat Double Stack CO2 Incubator for Cell Culture

The Thermo Forma Model 310 Direct Heat Double Stack CO2 Incubator features a dual-chamber vertical stack design, providing two independent incubators with precise temperature and CO2 concentration control. This laboratory incubator operates on a 115 V power supply with a frequency range of 50/60 Hz and consumes 2.40 A of current, suitable for standard lab electrical setups.

Key technical features include:

• Dual independent chambers offering controlled atmospheres for simultaneous cell culture or tissue engineering workflows
• Direct heat system for stable temperature regulation, minimizing condensation and ensuring uniform environment
• Digital displays for both temperature and CO2 levels, enabling accurate monitoring essential for molecular diagnostics and synthetic biology applications
• Adjustable stainless steel and perforated shelves optimizing airflow and maximizing culture surface area
• Integrated water pan to maintain humidity levels critical for maintaining cell viability in biopharmaceutical production pipelines

Widely adopted in biotechnology research, molecular cloning workflows, and clinical diagnostics, this incubator supports tightly regulated environmental conditions for live-cell imaging, gene editing, and bioprocessing experiments. The model’s independent stacks allow parallel experiments under differing incubation parameters, essential for experimental reproducibility in biomedical engineering and synthetic biology research laboratories.

Manufactured in 2003 with robust engineering suitable for prolonged laboratory use, the Thermo Forma 310 remains a reliable choice for researchers requiring precise atmospheric control in CO2 incubators widely used in cell culture and biomanufacturing settings.
