The peltier cooled CO2 incubators from Wiggens are designed to meet the demanding needs of laboratories in South Africa. These advanced incubators combine integrated heating with innovative peltier cooling technology, delivering precise environmental control at all times. Whether your application involves sensitive cultures, long-term cell growth, or microbiological studies, this compact and reliable solution ensures stable, energy-efficient performance. The Wiggens range includes models from 40LT to 850LT, and researchers can also choose optional dry heat sterilization to support diverse pharmaceutical, clinical, and academic requirements.

 

Fast Heat-Up and Rapid Recovery

Each incubator uses a six-sided direct heating system. Electric heating wires wrap around the chamber, which guarantees uniform temperature distribution across every shelf. In addition, three independent temperature sensors actively monitor and adjust the system. As a result, the incubator delivers rapid heat-up times and quick recovery after door openings. Therefore, researchers benefit from uninterrupted experiments and consistently high-precision outcomes.

 

Maintenance-Free Insulation Design

Wiggens designed these peltier cooled CO2 incubators with a dual-insulation system that combines dry wall and air jacket technology. This clever approach minimizes heat loss and improves temperature stability. Moreover, it reduces maintenance demands and lowers long-term running costs. Laboratories therefore gain both durability and energy efficiency, making these incubators a smart investment.

 

Dual Beam IR CO2 Sensor

Accurate CO2 monitoring plays a vital role in successful cell culture. For this reason, Wiggens integrates a dual-beam infrared sensor into every unit. This sensor measures gas levels rapidly and precisely, even when temperature and humidity fluctuate. Consequently, cultures remain in an optimal growth environment, ensuring reproducibility and reliable results.

 

Natural Humidification with Even Distribution

A stainless-steel water tray, combined with a bottom heater, generates natural humidification. Furthermore, an internal circulation fan distributes the moisture evenly across the chamber. This process maintains consistent sample development and prevents desiccation, even during long culture periods.
