Precise CO2 incubator with 165 L capacity, ±0.1°C temp control, and stable 90–93% humidity for cell culture applications.
The Thermo Scientific Heracell VIOS 160i CO2 Incubator offers advanced temperature and humidity regulation, essential for sensitive cell culture and bioprocessing workflows in biotechnology and molecular diagnostics. It maintains a highly stable temperature range from ambient +3°C up to 55°C with a tight deviation over time of ±0.1°C and spatial variation limited to ±0.3°C, ensuring uniform environmental conditions optimal for live-cell imaging and cell growth studies.
This laboratory incubator features a 165 L capacity with internal dimensions of 470 x 607 x 576 mm, suitable for multiple culture vessels. It supports precise CO2 control from 0 to 20%, with accuracy ±0.3% at 5% CO2 concentration (37°C) and temporal stability within ±0.1°C, critical for maintaining physiological pH in cell culture media.
Humidity control is integral, with a maximum capacity of 3 L per 0.5 minutes and two operational modes at 37°C: high humidity mode achieving 93% relative humidity and low humidity mode at 90%, which are indispensable parameters for preventing sample dehydration in biomanufacturing and synthetic biology research.
The incubator’s overall dimensions measure 637 x 905 x 790 mm, weighing 83 kg, designed for benchtop or floor placement in clinical diagnostic labs and research facilities specializing in molecular cloning workflows and biopharmaceutical production pipelines. Its sterile environment and precise microclimate control make it a critical tool widely adopted in biotechnology and life science research sectors.
Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.
We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.
We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.
With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.
Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that alongside the offer.
Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.
Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.
We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
Tell us what you need and a scientist finds it for you, usually within the hour.
