Available with a stainless steel or a fungicidal/bactericidal solid copper interior, the Heraeus® HERAcell® 150 tri-gas incubator features the acclaimed ContraCon 90°C
decontamination routine for unsurpassed contamination prevention, even against mycoplasma.
The HERAcell 150 provides a safe, stable, precisely-controlled hypoxic or hyperoxic cell culture environment with the proven contamination control and convenience offered by
ContraCon.
Only the HERAcell 150 gives you precise O2/N2 control with the convenience of a decon routine that does not require the removal and re-fitting of sensors and shelves.
Features:
Unique O2 Control with Auto-Cal
Two O2 control ranges precisely control oxygen concentration for applications requiring decreased or increased O2 conditions.
-
1 - 21% O2 or 5 - 90% O2
- Accurate, maintenance-free zirconium sensor is automatically calibrated by integral Auto-Cal system for long-term stability
- Sensor is left in place during ContraCon decontamination
TC or New IR CO2 Sensor Option
Choose the standard thermal conductivity (TC) sensor with accurate gas sensor technology, or select the optional infrared (IR) sensor with exclusive dual-beam technology – the
perfect sensor for precise CO2 control in fluctuating temperature and humidity conditions.
- Auto-zero self-calibration for long-term stability and more constant pH
- Sensors remain in place during ContraCon decontamination
Superior Contamination Prevention
Heraeus leads the market in pioneering innovations that reduce incubator contamination. The HERAcell 150 tri-gas incubator incorporates:
-
-The ContraCon 90°C automatic decontamination routine, which decontaminates the entire interior and water reservoir without the need to remove sensors and fittings (in independent
tests, ContraCon was proven to completely eliminate mycoplasma)
-
-Reduced internal surface area minimizes contamination-prone surfaces
-
-Smooth interior with rounded corners for easy cleaning
-
-Optional solid copper interior
Rapid Humidity Recovery
Fast humidity recovery times prevent cultures from drying out – a vital feature when the door is opened frequently or low media volumes are used.
- Large, directly-heated water reservoir
- Recovery times are up to 5 times faster than those of incubators with conventional water pans
- Water level alarm with audible and visual alerts
