BOD INCUBATOR

ABOUT THE COMPANY:

iGene Labserve Pvt. Ltd. is gaining recognition by offering resilient, innovative solutions in laboratory instrumentation across healthcare, genomics, drug discovery, biopharma, and food & beverage sectors. We strive to enhance lab efficacy and reduce challenges through advanced technologies and a diverse product portfolio tailored to our customers’ needs.

BOD INCUBATOR:

The iGene Labserve BOD Incubator is specially designed for storing and cultivating fungal and bacterial cultures at temperatures of 37°C or below. These laboratory incubators, also known as Cooling Incubators or BOD Incubators, provide a reliable temperature range from 5°C to 60°C, making them versatile for a variety of laboratory applications.

KEY FEATURES:

Temperature Control & Distribution
Equipped with a computerized temperature controller, each BOD Incubator ensures precise temperature regulation. The system includes an air circulation fan to distribute temperature evenly throughout the chamber, maintaining consistent conditions for sample growth. The digital PID temperature controller displays both the Set Value (SV) and Process Value (PV), providing a clear and accurate readout. Additionally, the built-in high/low-temperature alarm alerts operators if the temperature deviates from the set range.

Heating & Ventilation
The BOD Incubator generates heat using resistance wire heaters or beaded heaters, ensuring efficient temperature control. A motorized blower or axial fan is integrated into the system to maintain uniform temperature across the entire chamber, supporting optimal sample incubation.

Construction & Material
The incubator’s external cabinet is constructed from a thick gauge GI sheet, which is powder-coated to increase its corrosion resistance. For applications that require compliance with GMP standards, a stainless-steel option is available. The inner chamber is made of durable 304-grade stainless steel, ensuring long-term reliability. High-density glass wool insulation is used between the inner and outer chambers to minimize heat loss, enhancing energy efficiency. The refrigerant used in the system is CFC-free, contributing to a safer environmental footprint.

Customization & Quality Assurance
iGene Lab recognizes the unique requirements of diverse users and offers customizable options to accommodate specific laboratory needs. Each unit can be equipped with a variety of accessories to support tailored applications. Every BOD Incubator undergoes a rigorous multi-stage testing process to ensure superior performance and reliability before being dispatched to customers, guaranteeing the highest standards of quality.

CONTROLLER FEATURES:

Microprocessor PID Temperature Controller:
Equipped with a precise microprocessor-based PID temperature controller, providing clear display of both set value (SV) and process value (PV) for accurate monitoring and control.

Auto-Tuning Function:
Features an auto-tuning capability, which optimizes temperature control settings automatically for consistent performance.

Timer Functionality:
The controller allows users to set operational timing, specifying how long the oven will be active, which enhances efficiency and conserves energy during scheduled use.

Password-Protected Temperature Settings:
Temperature adjustments are secured with password protection, ensuring that set parameters cannot be modified without authorization, adding a layer of security to critical settings.

Optional feature: Touch screen Programmable controllers are optionally available upon request.
