| Available in four bench mounted
sizes, the Carbolite Peak series cooled incubator has a working temperature
range of 0°C to +60°C with a maximum continuous working temperature
of 60°C.
The internal chamber (and air guides) is fabricated
from 304 grade stainless steel and is externally sealed to prevent moisture
entering the insulation when the incubator is used at sub-ambient temperatures.
The polished stainless steel inner provides resistance to chemical attack
and allows easy cleaning. The main case of the chamber is constructed
from zinc coated mild steel and has a double skin construction for maximum
thermal efficiency. All external surfaces are finished with a light
grey stoved epoxy polyester powder paint which is easy to clean and
withstands many years of intensive use.
The front of the chamber is fitted with a single side
hinged door to give access to the full width of the chamber. An internal
heatproof toughened glass door is fitted to allow a clear view of the
inner chamber without disturbing the atmosphere. All controls are vertically
mounted on the right hand side of the chamber, thereby avoiding damage
from spillage or from rising heat.
Heating is provided by mineral insulated metal sheafed
elements; the low surface watt loading of the elements ensures that
they have a long and reliable life. Power to the elements is controlled
by a thyristor based solid state relay. The relay works in the fast
cycle zero voltage switching mode to ensure good control and to reduce
the level of radio frequency interference. A platinum resistance thermometer
senses the chamber temperature.
A high performance fan circulates the air within the
chamber for maximum temperature uniformity. Insulation of the chamber
is with a high quality ceramic fibre blanket to ensure a safe outer
case temperature. The incubator is cooled by a hermetically sealed refrigeration
system.

Control Options Carbolite
201: The 201 is a three term PID microprocessor controller with the
facility of an adjustable ramp rate to set point, either up or down.
It is a high precision instrument, with a setting resolution of 0.1°C,
and is exclusive to Carbolite. The measured temperature is shown by
a large LED display located behind a wipe clean membrane panel. Eurotherm
2416CC: This is an advanced setpoint programming temperature controller
with eight segments, any of which can be a ramp, dwell or step. It provides
precise control with the advanced PID algorithm giving stable 'straight-line'
control of the process. Eurotherm 2408CP: this contains the same features
as the 2416CC, but has 16 segments and has the facility to store up
to 20 separate programmes. |
