CO2 incubator with dry heat sterilization, temperature range 5–50°C, ±0.3°C uniformity, 0–20% CO2 control.
The Astec SCA-165DS CO2 Incubator with integrated dry heat sterilization function offers precise environmental control essential for biotechnology and molecular diagnostics applications. Designed for cell culture, live-cell imaging preparation, and clinical research, this CO2 incubator maintains a stable temperature range from room temperature +5°C up to 50°C with a tight temperature uniformity of ±0.3°C, supporting sensitive bioprocessing workflows. The unit features four shelves within internal dimensions of 510×500×640 mm, accommodating various culture vessels with consistent environmental conditions. The CO2 concentration is finely controllable between 0–20% with ±0.1% accuracy, crucial for maintaining physiological culture conditions in synthetic biology and gene editing research.
The incorporated dry heat sterilization function operates from 60°C to 140°C, enabling in situ sterilization of the incubation chamber to minimize contamination risks, a critical factor in biomanufacturing and cell therapy development pipelines. The incubator supports flexible voltage input (AC100V, 120V, 220V, 230V), suitable for global laboratory environments. Despite being a used unit sold as-is, the Astec SCA-165DS remains a relevant tool for researchers requiring reliable CO2 incubation combined with sterilization capabilities for workflows in molecular cloning, cell-based assays, and biomedical engineering.
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.
