INCUBATOR
An incubator from BINDER is the perfect solution for stable incubation processes.The incubators with natural convection or forced convection are now the perfect solution when it comes to meeting growth and incubation requirements of microbiological cultures. They guarantee reproducible results in every routine test in the laboratory – even under high batch throughputs in long-term operation. With their exceptional efficiency and perfect temperature accuracy thanks to the very latest APT.line™ technology, this new generation of incubators has real appeal.
A cooling incubator, also known as a refrigerated incubator, is an incubator that is capable of both heating and cooling. This temperature-controlled system enables samples to be incubated or stored in a cooling incubator both above and below ambient temperature. Refrigerated incubators are used in microbiology and are part of standard laboratory equipment. Stable incubation conditions are essential when working with microorganisms. The units used therefore have to guarantee exact and constant temperatures.
A CO2 incubator is a gassed incubator that is used for in vitro cell cultivation. Cell culture is the process by which living cells are cultivated and propagated outside of an organism under controlled conditions. Cell cultures often form the basis of clinical and biotechnological research. Inside a CO2 incubator, an atmosphere is created that is as natural as possible in order to facilitate cell growth. The temperature, humidity, and CO2 content must match the cell culture requirements precisely.
A plant growth chamber is an enclosed climate chamber which generates a defined climate (temperature and humidity) and defined light conditions. In addition, a defined CO2 concentration may be useful or necessary.
In contrast to walk-in plant growth chambers (phytotrons) or greenhouses, isolated experiments can be carried out in plant growth chambers under precisely defined and reproducible conditions.
ULTRA LOW TEMPERATOR FREEZER
The spotlight is on environmentally-friendly design in the BINDER ultra low temperature freezer. This applies particularly to the best energy efficiency in its class and the lack of refrigerants that are harmful to the climate. A multi-layered safety concept allows users to mix and match elements to suit any environment. With practical unit sizes appropriate, sophisticated options and practical accessories, users have everything they need for reliable long-term storage of highly sensitive samples.
DRYING OVENS
BINDER drying chambers with natural convection or forced convection are renowned for their high quality and reliability. Thanks to their extensive redevelopment, these all-rounders are now even more firmly focused on addressing the requirements involved in drying or heating samples. What’s more, in addition to the best energy efficiency on the market and convenient operation, the latest APT.line™ technology offers outstanding temperature accuracy to give this new generation of incubators real appeal.
A BINDER heating oven with a silicone- and dust-free inner chamber and a symmetrical air flow provides the perfect environment for standard-compliant drying of paints and coating materials containing solvents. The FDL Series guarantees short drying time with high temperature accuracy and defined ventilation. Every BINDER heating oven thus represents the basis for the highest-quality results and reproducible tests in the fields of chemistry and surface technology.
Both BINDER vacuum drying chamber models enable effective drying without residue or damaging the material being dried. With their proven technological features, they excellently address the strict requirements of industrial and scientific laboratories. Samples and similar materials incorporating flammable and non-flammable solvents can be dried, depending on the individual use. The chambers use a unique safety design that, together with accustomed outstanding performance, sets the bar in terms of quality and safety.
CLIMATE CHAMBER
A constant climate chamber, also known as a climate cabinet or climate chamber, is a unit used to simulate certain environmental conditions (temperature and relative humidity). Environmental simulation testing in climate chambers provides an indication of how test specimens will behave under defined climate conditions. The tests therefore ensure product quality and stability and give an idea as to their service life and durability. It is important that the units ensure homogeneous climate conditions in terms of time and space and that the climate conditions are documented continuously during the tests.
A photostability test chamber is a climate chamber with light which generates defined light conditions in addition to temperature and humidity. Light climate chambers are used for stability testing to determine the shelf life of products. They are used in different sectors, such as the pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and food industries. Photostability tests examine the influence of temperature, humidity, and exposure to light on a product. The test materials are first stored in a climate chamber under defined conditions for a specified period of time before the shelf life is checked.
A plant growth chamber is an enclosed climate chamber which generates a defined climate (temperature and humidity) and defined light conditions. In addition, a defined CO2 concentration may be useful or necessary.
In contrast to walk-in plant growth chambers (phytotrons) or greenhouses, isolated experiments can be carried out in plant growth chambers under precisely defined and reproducible conditions.
BINDER environmental chambers are perfectly suited to material testing under dynamic conditions. The standard rapid alternation speeds of around 5 K/min make standard-compliant testing possible. An environmental simulation chamber of the MK and MKT Series is suitable for complex temperature profiles in the range of -40 °C or -70 °C to 180 °C. MKF and MKFT Series of dynamic climate chambers not only make material testing in this temperature range possible, but can also regulate humidity in the range of 10 % to 98 % RH.
