CO2 Incubators Analyzer: Features and Functions to Consider
CO2 incubators are common laboratory instruments that promote the growth of cells or tissue within the unit. These laboratory incubators maintain consistent temperatures of 37°C, 5% CO2, a constant pH value of 7.2-7.4, and a relative humidity saturation level of 95% for cell or tissue culture.
The co2 analyzer portable unit has its own set of characteristics and function. It takes a lot of time and research to find a CO2 Incubator with the proper specifications and features for your application. For instance, the g100 co2 incubator analyser is one of the most popularly used ones in the labs. Below are some important characteristics to look for while looking for a new CO2 laboratory incubator as well as some maintenance advice to keep it running smoothly –
Micro-computer chip – PID Control System
Some CO2 incubators has the PID control systems with touch keys which helps to control the unit’s settings simpler. A PID controller is a microcomputer chip control system installed inside the CO2 Incubator to help assure laboratory personnel’s safety while conducting research. Other components will have a mix of analogue and digital controls, but a system with PID controls will help ensure that the chamber’s environmental variables are adjusted more precisely.
Advance Ultrasonic Sensors
Advanced ultrasonic sensors are used in CO2 incubator gas analyzer to measure gas concentration within the unit. Ultrasonic sensors have a long service life and do not experience mechanical wear. They are very responsive, reliable, and provide stable performance. For CO2 detection and control, most CO2 incubators will include infrared sensors. The G100-00N Incubator CO2 Analyzer has been designed to include the most up-to-date technology and specifications, giving the user a quick, easy-to-use, and accurate piece of laboratory equipment. The viasensor g100 manual is exceptionally easy to read and comprehend, allowing the device to be used in a variety of sectors around the world.
High-Precision Platinum Resistance Temperature Sensor
High-precision platinum resistance temperature sensors, such as the PT1000, are used in some CO2 incubators to offer accurate and steady temperature readings. Natural air convection and moderate breeze circulation are used in some incubators to provide speedy temperature, humidity, and CO2 recovery times, as well as even distribution within the unit. CO2 incubators with an auto-start feature will reset all of the sensors to zero before starting the unit.
The other components
Solenoid Valve – In a Portable CO2 Analyser, solenoid valves are in charge of regulating fluid flow. The solenoid valve closes and the air flow stops automatically once the incubator door is opened. This not only guarantees that your gas is not wasted, but it also helps to reduce pollution in the air.
LED Display – For simplified system navigation, an LED display will display the incubator temperature, CO2 concentration, door heating, intake, modification, measurement, and other settings in an intuitive, clear, and precise manner.
Temperature Controller & Overheating Relay Function – When the unit grows excessively hot, CO2 incubators with temperature controls and overheating relay mechanisms safeguard samples from harm. When the display temperature exceeds the predetermined temperature, the heaters will be turned off using overheating relay operations.
Maintenance Tips
- The heating element will be damaged if the power switch is turned on before the water injection
- To use CO2 incubators as high-precision thermostat incubators, make sure the CO2 control system is appropriately closed
- To keep the CO2 sensor in good working order, use sanitised water with the humidification plate
- Replace when the cylinder pressure below 0.2Mpa
- Clear the working room moisture if the incubator has been open for a long time before shutting it. Before closing the glass door, let it breathe for 24 hours
- Make sure the sensors don’t collide with the stirring motor’s wind wheel or other parts
