Incubadora Thermo Scientific Fisherbrand 18L Low Temp Incubator

Thermo Scientific Fisherbrand 18L Low Temperature Incubator, catalog number 150152632, order code 50152632, built by Thermo Electron LED GmbH in Langenselbold, Germany. This is a compact benchtop refrigerated incubator with an 18 liter chamber, intended for small-volume incubation work such as microbiological culturing, plate and sample conditioning, BOD or enzyme studies, and holding samples at or below ambient temperature. It uses thermoelectric (Peltier) heating and cooling rather than a compressor, giving quiet operation and a small bench footprint. The unit operates over a published setpoint range of 17 to 50 degrees C, with 50 degrees C confirmed as the maximum on the data plate. Control is from a front membrane panel with up and down setpoint keys, an interior light key and a power key, alongside a digital LED temperature display. The nameplate in photo 4 reads 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz, single phase (1N), 0.85 A, 45 W, IP 20, software V1.3, serial number IMC 40486782, with a build date of 2019/12/03. The chamber has no CO2 or humidity control and is not jacketed. Photo 3 shows the interior: a smooth white inner liner with a black-coated rear and perforated shelving, fitted with three removable perforated shelves on molded side supports. The outer door carries the fisherbrand name and a glass inner door allows the samples to be viewed without opening the chamber; in the photos of this unit the glass is covered with foil and masking tape, applied at the site, which can be removed. The incubator sits on a laboratory bench and is supplied as a single self-contained benchtop unit measuring approximately 18 x 15 x 22 inches with an estimated shipping weight of 55 lbs. No operating condition or service history was recorded by the field representative; the display was not confirmed illuminated in the photos.
