Shel-Lab 1430 Vacuum Oven 1.7 Cu-Ft with Precise Temperature Control and Cross-Flow Ventilation

The Shel-Lab 1430 Vacuum Oven offers precise temperature control up to 225°C within a 1.7 cubic feet stainless steel chamber, ensuring durability and corrosion resistance critical for demanding laboratory and bioprocessing applications. Its cross-flow ventilation system forces inert gas uniformly throughout the chamber, optimizing drying efficiency and reducing contamination risk, which is essential for molecular diagnostics and synthetic biology workflows.

Equipped with a front window, this vacuum oven allows continuous visual monitoring of samples during processes such as drying biological specimens, moisture determination in biopharmaceutical production, and gene editing sample preparation. The control panel includes an intuitive temperature gauge and adjustment knob, providing reliable temperature regulation critical in biotechnology research and molecular biology applications.

To achieve the desired vacuum level, users can configure the unit with either a 3/8 inch orifice or a KF25 fitting, both designed to withstand heavy use while minimizing vacuum draw-down time. The oven maintains a maximum end vacuum of 10 microns (µ) and a leak rate of 10 µ per hour, ensuring stable vacuum conditions essential in clinical diagnostics and biomanufacturing.

This vacuum drying oven is widely adopted in laboratories focusing on bioprocessing, synthetic biology, and biomedical engineering, where controlled drying environments and contamination control are critical.

Key features:

Ideal for researchers and scientists requiring reliable vacuum drying ovens tailored to molecular cloning workflows, live-cell imaging sample preparation, and other advanced biotechnology research.
