creating the right atmosphere NEW SERIES Galaxy Plus 170 litre CO 2 Incubators Advanced design for optimum results

Galaxy Plus creating perfect conditions Scientists told us how they used CO 2 incubators every day and we listened. The result is the brand new GalaxyPlus series, designed to answer your cell culture needs. Lower contamination risks Smooth, seamless interior makes routine cleaning straightforward Ultimate user convenience - single door entry system gives quick access and fast recovery to preset conditions Completely dry-wall chamber: no moist breeding conditions for bacteria 30% more usable volume than all equivalent competitors models Removal of shelves takes seconds: complete access to every part of the chamber for thorough cleaning Designed and manufactured in Irvine, Scotland, Galaxy CO2 Incubators are specified by scientists in research laboratories worldwide for their quality, performance and exploitation of leading edge technologies.

class leading functionality A HEATED VIEWING DOOR CAN BE BUILT INTO OUTER DOOR OF THE R+ AND S+ TO MAXIMISE USER CONVENIENCE WHEN IT IS NECESSARY TO VIEW THE CHAMBER CONTENTS. Provide optimum growth conditions Protect from contamination Produce high yields SINGLE INNER DOOR 8 INNER DOORS inner doors are optional in a variety of configurations 4 INNER DOORS Where a glass door, is required, for instance to ensure that a moving apparatus is still working without disturbing the chamber conditions, a single inner door option is available. The advantages of the 4 and 8 inner door options are that the loss of chamber atmosphere is greatly reduced and subsequent recovery is enhanced, particularly when frequent door openings are unavoidable.

unrivalled reliability & performance Fanless, six-sided direct heat system ensures stable homogenous environment Rapidly reaches temperature set point with fast, even temperature recovery after opening the door No fans or ducting gives 30% more usable capacity, increasing throughput R The 170 litre Galaxy R+ model delivers full featured B functionality and offers a comprehensive choice of extra options to suit your specific research needs new intelligent control for optimum chamber conditions 72-hour data storage logs all conditions and events every 15 seconds, viewable on-screen in a simple real-time graphical format; downloadable for validation purposes; stored in non-volatile memory Clear guidance for all functions with on-screen help menu; diagnostic display reduces service callouts Password protection for programmable settings and alarm setpoints Large back-lit display screen can be read from a distance Communications options: see options table for full range Infra-red CO2 Sensor with fully automatic Auto-Zero system

lowest contamination risk assurance Seamless chamber with rounded corners for easy cleaning No inner glass door means that door opening times are significantly reduced (Inner door can be fitted - as an optional extra, if preferred.) Up to 95% RH achieved within completely dry wall chamber, protecting your cells from both evaporation and sources of contamination air movement is by convection only, greatly reducing sample evaporation and contamination risks R B The popular Galaxy S+ is manufactured to the same high standard as the R+ model and combines a high level of functionality with proven & dependable performance Clear LED display is easy to programme and monitor Communications options: see options table for full range Infra-red CO2 Sensor with fully automatic Auto-Zero system Optional integral viewing door for checking cultures without disturbance High Temperature Decontamination Option assures optimum growth conditions

unrivalled user convenience Space-saving: whether under-bench or stacked, controls are easily accessible No fan means no possibility of vibration disturbance Significantly increased shelf frontage for enhanced accessibility and user convenience R B A practical, full-sized (170 litres) and value for money CO2 incubator for everyday reliable performance no fans or ducting gives 30% more usable capacity than traditional systems A clear LED display that is easy to programme and monitor Seamless chamber with smooth pickled finish and rounded corners Dependable performance from an Infra-red CO2 Sensor with semi-automatic zeroing Shelf rack with four fixed positions Fits under a bench or can be stacked
