Thermo Scientific HERAcell 150i CO2 Incubator with 150L Copper Chamber and iCAN Touchscreen

The Thermo Scientific HERAcell 150i CO2 Incubator model 51026283 provides a controlled environment optimized for cell culture and in vitro fertilization (IVF) applications. Featuring a 150-liter non-corrosive copper chamber, it ensures enhanced contamination resistance and optimal cell growth conditions vital for biotechnology and molecular diagnostics workflows.

Key technical features include:

Operating temperature ranges from ambient +3°C to 55°C, supporting a wide range of experimental protocols in biomedical engineering and synthetic biology research domains. The incubator meets FDA Class II Medical Device standards for IVF, confirming its regulatory suitability in clinical diagnostics and assisted reproductive technology laboratories.

Physical dimensions support placement on laboratory benches while weighing approximately 83.8 kg (184.8 lbs), balancing chamber capacity with ergonomic footprint. The copper chamber’s patina indicates normal use but does not compromise functionality, affirmed by temperature testing to 37°C.

This CO2 incubator is widely adopted in cell imaging, culture of sensitive primary cells, and biopharmaceutical production pipelines, making it an essential instrument for researchers engaged in gene editing and molecular cloning workflows requiring stringent environmental control.
