Description
The Cooled Incubator ST 5 is a professional-grade thermostatic solution engineered by POL-EKO to provide uncompromising temperature stability and uniformity for large sample batches. With a 300-liter chamber capacity, this model is a workhorse for laboratories performing BOD5 tests, seedling germination, pharmaceutical stability testing, and the controlled storage of chemical reagents or vaccines.
Superior Climate Control The unit utilizes a microprocessor-based PID controller and forced air convection with an adjustable fan speed (50-100% for ST models) to maintain a highly stable internal climate. While the standard Smart controller provides a range of +3?C to +40?C, the Smart PRO version extends this performance up to +70?C, making it suitable for specialized high-temperature incubation. The ST 5 also includes an automatic defrosting function and comprehensive alarms for temperature sensor failure and open doors.
Advanced User Interface The ST 5 is available with two sophisticated control options to suit different laboratory needs:
Smart Controller: Features a 4.3-inch color touch screen, memory for 5 user programs, and USB/LAN ports for straightforward data transfer.
Smart PRO Controller: A premium 7-inch color touch screen with Wi-Fi connectivity, multi-user management, and an alphanumeric keyboard for easy programming of up to 40 segments and 100 loops. Both controllers are designed for operation with gloves and feature a prominent Alarm Bar for immediate status awareness.
Built for Professional Use Constructed for long-term durability, the ST 5 features an interior made of stainless steel (DIN 1.4016) for Comfort models or acid-resistant stainless steel (DIN 1.4301) for Premium models. The unit comes standard with 4 stainless steel wire shelves (expandable to 7), a physical door lock, and a ?30 mm access port. For specialized photostability or growth studies, it can be equipped with the FOT photoperiodic system for day and night light simulation.
