Three airflow technologies

Gravity convection

provides gentle airflow, with minimized
drying out of samples. The best choice

1

for applications with open plates or
open containers.

Mechanical convection

provides even higher temperature uniformity and stability to ensure an optimal environment for your
samples. Fan enables fast recovery time after opening the door. A mechanical convection incubator
can even be used for drying applications at high temperature settings – eliminating the need for an
additional oven.

NEW! Dual convection

is a unique technology which allows the operator to
choose the fan speed – from 0% (which equals gravity
convection) up to 100%. Depending on the application,
the speed can be adapted to provide optimal airflow for
your valuable samples.
