BINDER cooling incubator KB PRO 1600-230V
The cooling incubator presented here has been specially developed for demanding temperature tests, precise storage conditions and versatile incubation processes. Thanks to its wide temperature range of -20 °C to +100 °C, it offers enormous flexibility, making it ideal for pharmaceutical research, biotechnology and environmental analysis. Users benefit from reliable compressor technology, a robust stainless steel inner vessel and a sophisticated user interface that simplifies both control and parameterisation. The result: constant conditions, minimal deviations and reliable long-term operation.
Powerful temperature control and intelligent functions
This cooling unit is designed for extreme temperature stability and repeat accuracy, so that even critical samples and processes can be processed with maximum reliability. Particularly noteworthy is the advanced cooling technology with inverter compressor, which not only delivers constant performance, but also scores highly in terms of energy consumption. This is complemented by sophisticated air routing (APT.line preheating chamber technology), which reduces temperature fluctuations and promotes the homogeneous distribution of heat or cold in the interior.
To further enhance performance, the appliance comes with numerous features that support intuitive handling and efficient operation:
- Temperature range: -20 °C to +100 °C
- Climate-neutral refrigerant R-290 for environmentally friendly cooling
- Interval and real-time programmes can be operated via touchscreen
- Intelligent door heating to prevent condensation
- Ethernet and USB interfaces for easy recording of measured values
- Stainless steel telescopic rails for safe loading and unloading of samples
- Signal triangle with illuminated status indicator for quick device status checks
With these core features, the incubator is not only suitable for everyday use and ergonomic in research or routine operation, but also enables interaction with documentation software for seamless analysis. Its interior space of 1610 litres is generously dimensioned and offers sufficient space for numerous samples, projects or experimental set-ups with several insertion levels.
Robust materials also ensure that the cabinet is protected against corrosion and mechanical stress. The solid construction with double-walled HIT sandwich elements and insulating features contributes to reliable temperature stability inside. According to the manufacturer, temperature recovery after door openings is also excellent, which ensures high reproducibility in tests and minimises time delays.
Certifications and standards
In order to offer maximum safety, the device is equipped with a class 3.3 temperature selector switch that meets the requirements of DIN 12880. Among other things, this standard prescribes controlled temperature tests with clear tolerances and is a fixed quality standard in many laboratory areas. The integrated visual and audible alarm also ensures comprehensive fault protection and reports any faults at an early stage.
Application examples
- Pharmaceutical research: Constant temperature conditions for stable storage of antibiotics, vaccines or aseptic samples.
- Biotechnology: Promotes incubation processes in fermentation and fermentation processes or for cell cultures, as temperature and humidity values can be precisely regulated.
- Environmental analysis: Ideal for soil and water samples as well as testing microorganisms under simulated cold or heat.
- Plant growth: Optional LED light modules and CO? fumigation can be used to conduct growth studies on a wide range of plant species .
All applications benefit from the sturdy inner doors made of metal oxide-coated safety glass, which minimise temperature loss when viewing samples and enable easy visual inspection.
FAQs
How does the device record data?
The incubator has an internal data logger. The measured values can be read out via USB in open format, which enables convenient documentation and analysis.
Do I need additional equipment for CO? fumigation?
If you order the CO? fumigation modules as an option, you will receive all the components you need to feed in both low (up to 1%) and higher CO? concentrations (up to 20%). This allows you to implement different cell or plant culture environments as required.
How high is the maximum load?
You can place up to 40 kg per rack and up to 100 kg in the entire interior. This means that even larger sample quantities or heavy containers can be stored safely without jeopardising stability.
What role do the telescopic runners play?
The telescopic rails make handling the racks much easier. Samples can be effortlessly moved out, inspected or removed without any disruptive temperature loss.
Is the device suitable for long-term measurements?
Yes, the reliable compressor and robust stainless steel construction ensure that long-term tests can be carried out without any significant risk of failure. In addition, the self-explanatory touchscreen control makes it easy to programme complex test sequences.
Conclusion
The cooling incubator impresses with a wide temperature range, efficient compressor technology and a sophisticated operating concept. Laboratory professionals from pharmaceutical research, biotechnology and environmental analysis will find a reliable device that can handle lengthy incubation and temperature control processes just as easily as demanding growth studies. With DIN-compliant safety, optional expansion modules and excellent insulation, this model is ideal for achieving precise and reproducible results and sustainably optimising everyday laboratory work.
