The Hypoxic Cabinet allows you to quickly and conveniently incubate samples (animal or cell culture) at reduced O2 levels. Cell Culture cabinets are designed to fit into an existing incubator for longer term incubation. The System offers you the ability to change the O2 levels automatically with a sensor monitoring the conditions constantly and the Controller adjusting for changes to the desired set point by purging N2 gas or optionally O2 gas for Hyperoxic operation. This avoids the purchase of costly gas mixes to satisfy a complete range of O2 levels.
System Includes:
- O2 Controller + Sensor
- N2 Gas Regulator
- Pressure relief valve
- 2 sensor ports
- Circulation Fan
- Gas Inlet
- Sliding Shelf(s) for Cell culture units
The Hermetic Seal insures that even with the controllers unattached you can maintain set O2 levels for long periods of time. This also translates into better gas consumption as the “diffusion rate” is significantly reduced over a semi sealed cabinet.
System Options
- Heaters for precise temperature control.
- CO2 Control System (Sensor, tubing and gas regulator included) 0-20% control
- Tray for containment of water/desiccant or animal waste byproducts removal
- Cycling between multiple O2 set points automatically
- Voltage Output for readouts sent to computer or other such program
- For Cell Culture 4 different size units capable of handling 9-72 plates
- For Live Animal units 3 standard sizes to meet your needs
- O2 Controller
Operation
O2 Control happens by connection of a tank of N2 inserting the Sensor into the provided Port. Choosing a desired Set-Point (increments of .1%). The controller monitors the readings of the Sensor and injects N2 (O2 for Hyperoxic Conditions) as needed. Excess gas is vented through the Automatic Pressure Relief Valves.
Pull out shelves enable easy access to the interior.
