S-Bt Smart Biotherm Compact CO2 Incubator – Witec AG

The unit provides a six-sided heating: the heating elements are located on the walls and on the door, thus providing excellent uniform temperature distribution, regardless of external factors, such as ambient temperature and positioning of the device.

Built-in infrared CO₂–sensor allows accurate control of the CO₂ level. The sensor makes measurement non-sensitive to changes in temperature and humidity inside the incubator.

The chamber is made of stainless steel with smoothed seams to minimize contamination and to facilitate cleaning.

The S-Bt is equipped with a UV air recirculation system - 1 UV lamp and a fan are mounted behind the rear wall, providing decontamination of the working volume.

A convenient access port is built in the wall of the incubator for easy output of wire sensors or devices’ installed inside. The access port is heated independently to prevent formation of condensate.

The unit is equipped with error tracing and alarm systems, which significantly lower potential risks during operation.

A “black box” system records temperature, humidity and CO₂ levels, as well as statuses for door opening, UV lamp, fan and errors, to the inner memory. A bluetooth connection to PC is available.
