Thermo Fisher Scientific i160 Formaster Tri-Cycle CO2 Incubator 165L Capacity

The Thermo Fisher Scientific i160 Formaster Tri-Cycle CO2 Incubator offers a 165-liter chamber capacity engineered for advanced cell culture and biotechnology applications including molecular diagnostics and bioprocessing workflows. This controlled atmosphere incubator supports a temperature range from room temperature +3 to 55°C with a precise display accuracy of ±0.1°C, ensuring optimal environmental conditions for live-cell imaging and synthetic biology research. The incubator features an infrared (IR) CO2 sensor with a concentration range up to 20.0% CO2 and accuracy of ±0.3%, critical for maintaining physiological conditions during tissue culture and biomanufacturing processes. Optional oxygen control spans from 1.0 to 21.0% O2 with an accuracy of ±0.5%, enabling hypoxic conditioning relevant in neurobiology and stem cell research. The unit employs a natural evaporation humidification system with a water volume capacity between 0.5 and 3 liters, providing stable humidity levels essential for cell viability. Shelves support up to 10 kg each with dimensions of 423 mm width by 465 mm depth. Sterilization is performed by a dry heat process at 180°C for up to 12 hours, ensuring contamination control. Physical dimensions of the incubator are 642 mm (W) × 883 mm (D) × 903 mm (H) with an internal volume designed for versatile laboratory integration. Suitable for clinical diagnostics, biotechnology labs, and biomedical engineering fields, this unit is widely used for bioprocessing, gene editing validation, and molecular cloning workflows. This specific listing is for a used unit sold as-is, with potential variances in performance compared to new models.
