Heracell VIOS 160i & 250i Tri-Gas CO2 Incubators

from Thermo Fisher Scientific

Achieve your next breakthrough.

Now you can choose between the 165L or the 255L capacity.

• Pick the CO2 incubator that's right for your lab's needs.
• Ideal for scale-up research and development.
• 255L chamber accommodates high throughput and large culture vessels.
• Strengthened stainless steel models for increased weight capacity.
• Optional reinforced shelves for large capacity, low media level culturing.

Better solutions for optimal cell growth.

• The Thermo Scientific Heracell VIOS CO2 incubator is specifically designed to deliver the performance reliability, ease of operation, and value required to support a range of culturing needs from basic research to the demanding, leading-edge applications, so you're ready for whatever comes next.
• Get added culturing flexibility with our CO2 incubators with variable oxygen control (tri-gas).

Direct Heat Chamber:

• 165L electropolished stainless steel chamber with compact footprint, easily stackable.
• Standard left hand door swing, with inner 3 segmented gas tight glass doory.

THRIVE Active Airflow:

• In-chamber fan gently distributes clean, humidified air throughout the chamber ensuring homogeneous conditions.
• Fast recovery of all parameters ten minutes or less for stable culturing conditions.
• Auto-stop function disables fan operation during door openings to minimize air exchange.

ISO 5 HEPA Filtration:

• In-chamber HEPA continuously filters the entire chamber air volume every 60 seconds.
• ISO 5 clean room air quality is achieved in the culture chamber within five minutes.
• Continuous protection by minimizing ability for contaminants to settle on interior surfaces.

Protected Humidity Reservoir:

• Directly heated water reservoir provides stable high relative humidity levels, preventing culture desiccation.
• Cover limits particles and spilled media from settling into the reservoir.
• Condensation free inner chamber, prevents a breeding ground for contaminant.
• 5X faster humidity recovery than traditional water pan designs.
• For easier water handling, humidity reservoir may be filled or drained without the removal of shelves or cultures.

In situ sensors and probes:

• Dual temperature probes for over temperature protection with operational back up.
• Choice of thermal conductivity (TC) with rh compensation or single beam, dual wavelength infrared (IR) CO2 sensor.
• O2 control ranges 1 to 21% (hypoxic) and 5 to 90% (hyperoxic).

Steri-Run, high temperature defection cycle:

• Overnight cycle simplifies cleaning and eliminates the need for separate autoclaving of parts.
• 180°C cycle assures uniform 6-log sterilization on all chamber surfaces eliminating biological contaminants.

Intuitive, interactive iCAN Touchscreen Control:

• Convenient on-screen user prompts and reminders for easy navigation.
• Selectable languages simplify operation: English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Japanese and Mandarin.
• Visibility to changes in culture environment on performance graphs and error and data logs.

Ordering Information:

• For 220V Tri-gas models, please order a Heracell VIOS single base model (51030287, 51030286, 51030478 or 51030476) with the factory installed O2 controlled option.
