Description
Applications
*Specifically designed for tissue culture on petri plates/dishes or in flasks
*Many other applications exist for this product
Percival’s IntellusUltra Controller
*The IntellusUltra control system was purpose-built for controlled environments.
*Robust, reliable, industrial-grade integrated hardware
*Highly flexible architecture facilitates configuration, expansion and customization
*Precise, simultaneous control of up to 7 environmental parameters
*Industry-leading experiment protection and system diagnostics
PetriClear LED lighting system
*Two tiers of lighted shelving, lit by PetriClear LEDs
*Intensity programmable up to 190 µmoles/m2/s of light irradiance measured @ 6″ from LEDs
*Programming and control of the lighting is done via IntellusUltra real time controller
*Dimmable between 10-100% output
*New SciWhite + Infrared technology lighting system designed
to prevent condensation from forming on petri dishes
Airflow/Circulation
*Conditioned air circulates through a rear wall duct and is picked up by a specially designed fixed air diffuser located at the bottom of each tier (air is then delivered vertically upward at a slow speed through each shelf)
*Air diffuser insulates shelf level experiments from heat generated by underlying light fixture (this design minimizes condensation on dish lids)
Cabinet Construction
*Interior constructed of 26-gauge galvanized steel
*Interior floor constructed of 24-gauge polished stainless steel
*Exterior constructed of 24-gauge galvannealed extra-smooth steel
*NSF-complaint seam design
*Chamber is completely self-contained, suitable for stacking one above the other
*Overall wall thickness is 2”
*Highly durable and reflective coating
Insulation
*Woodless construction using 2” thick foamed-in-place non-CFC Urethane insulation with 97% closed cell-structure density of 2.2 lbs/sq.ft.
Door
*One door opening of 26.8” x 29.8” providing full access to chamber interior (magnetic gasket provides a tight seal to door frame)
*Lift-off hinge design allows for simple removal of door
Interior Space
*9.7 cu.ft. with work area of 6.1 sq.ft. provided on two tiers
Shelving
*Two tiers of white epoxy coated steel wire shelving (each shelf is 16.5”D x 26.5”W)
*Shelves slide in and out easily on stainless steel rail assemblies
*Maximum growing height is 9.1”
Temperature Range
10°-44°C (±0.5°C) lights on and 2°-44°C (±0.5°C) lights off
Regulatory Standards
*Electrical Safety: UL-508A, certified and labelled by Percival Scientific under UL file number E340161
*Quality System: ISO 9001:2015, certified under DQS, Inc. under certification number 10017261
Refrigeration
*Self-contained air-cooled condensing unit with hot gas bypass system for continuous compressor operation, extended life and tight temperature control. This continuous running condensing unit ensures precise temperature control by alternating cycling refrigerant and hot gas to coil; this also prolongs life of compressor, and eliminates risk of ice build up in coil.
*Extended stem solenoid valves for quiet and long life operation
*Rear chamber wall mounted evaporator coils incorporates an air circulation
*Heat rejection to ambient with standard chamber: 1,936 BTU/hr
Electrical Requirements
*Consult Geneva Scientific for electrical requirements and amperage draw.

*Android-Based Touch Screen
*CO2 Enrichment Package
*Self-Contained Water-Cooled Condensing Unit
*Dry Alarm Contacts
*Convenience Receptacles
*LED Lighting in Lieu of Fluorescent Lamps
