Heracell™ VIOS 250i CO2 Incubator Series
Direct Heat Chamber

• 255 L electropolished stainless steel and solid copper chambers with compact footprint, easily stackable
• Standard left hand door swing, field reversible by qualified service support

THRIVE Active Airflow

• In-chamber fan gently distributes clean, humidified air throughout the chamber ensuring homogeneous conditions
• Fast recovery of all parameters in 10 minutes or less for stable culturing conditions
• Auto-stop function disables fan operation during door openings to minimize air exchange

ISO Class 5 HEPA Filtration

• In-chamber HEPA continuously filters the entire chamber air volume every 60 seconds
• ISO Class 5 clean room air quality is achieved in the culture chamber within 5 minutes
• Continuous protection minimizes airborne contaminants settling on interior surfaces

 

Covered Integrated Humidity Reservoir

• Directly heated water reservoir provides stable high relative humidity levels, preventing culture desiccation
• Cover limits particles and spilled media from settling into the reservoir, keeping water clean
• Separating water provides a condensation free incubation chamber, limiting areas for contaminants to breed
• 5X faster humidity recovery than traditional water pan designs
• Easy water handling: humidity reservoir may be filled or drained without removing shelves or cultures
• Water level sensor indicates when a refill is needed

Steri-Run On-demand High Temperature Sterilization Cycle

• Independently validated overnight cycle ensures complete elimination of all biological contaminants
• 180°C cycle designed for uniform 12-log sterilization on all chamber surfaces
• Simplifies cleaning and eliminates the need for separate autoclaving and reassembly of components

Intuitive, Interactive iCAN Touchscreen Control

• Bright LED screen to monitor all incubator interactions
• Provides visibility to changes in culture environment with performance trend graphing, error and usage logs
• Convenient on-screen user prompts and reminders for easy navigation
• Selectable languages simplify operation: English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Japanese and Mandarin

 

Wireless Monitoring Solution

• Thermo Scientific™ DeviceLink HUB™, our easy-to-install solution, works with the Thermo Fisher Cloud to monitor conditions inside your CO₂ incubators. 
• DeviceLink HUB monitors chamber temperature, gas levels, alarms, and alerts from the incubator data output connection, RS-232 or USB 
• Alarms and notifications are also sent to the user by email and mobile push notification
• DeviceLink HUB is an optional accessory for models with the iCAN touchscreen interface

In situ Sensors and Probes Designed for Precise Control

• Dual temperature probes for over temperature protection with operational back up
• Thermal conductivity (TC) CO₂ sensor with rH compensation designed for fast recovery and stable operation
