The CT37stax™ high-capacity incubator has been designed using the best features of the existing technology from our proven IVF incubator products and incorporated these with a mix of innovative new features to provide a state of art new multi chamber benchtop incubator fit for the demands of the modern laboratory.
Delivering Effective Solutions
The CT37stax™’s unique modular design provides the flexibility for purchasers to invest in an incubator configured specifically to meet the demands of each individual laboratory.
- Uses 30% less lab space
- Capacity for up to 72 petri dishes
- Individually controlled chambers
Providing the Optimal Environment
The CT37stax™ incubator's highly accurate environmental regulation system ensures optimal clinical conditions inside each individual incubation chamber minimising the stress placed on the cell under culture and increasing the chance of success. Each individual chamber can be controlled and humidified independently to help prevent cell dehydration during incubation.
- Temperature Range Ambient +5℃ to 40℃
- Temperature Control Accuracy ±0.1℃
- Temperature Uniformity ±0.2℃
- CO2 Range set via premix used
Making Incubator Management Easy
The CT37stax™ is supplied with the Planer Incubator Management Software (PIMS). PIMSsolo user interface unit is mounted onto a CT37stax™ incubator to provide an easy-to-use touchscreen user interface for a single CT37stax™ unit.
Alternatively multiple CT37stax™ units can be networked together and controlled via a single PC running PIMS software, which is available as a free download.
PIMS can be used to operate as both the full control interface for multiple CT37stax™ incubators but also can be used as a management system for all Planer incubators operated within the laboratory.
- Manage all your Planer incubators
- Real time graphical display
- Data logging of incubator parameters
- User management
- Alarm acknowledgement
Ensuring Embryo Protection
The CT37stax™ incubator is packed with comprehensive alarm and monitoring features. Multiple parameters (temperature, gas flow, lid open, lid unlocked, power supply, carbon dioxide and communication status) of each incubation chamber are constantly monitored with audible and visual alarms, both locally on the incubator and via the PIMS application, alerting users to any issues.
- Comprehensive on board alarms
- Dual power supply protection option
- External alarm connection
- Access for truly independent monitoring
Offering Improved Workflow
The CT37stax™ multi chamber incubator incorporates many features designed to improve work processes and work flow in the laboratory. The incubator, even with all six incubation chambers installed, can be sited inside most flow hoods found in modern laboratories. Having the incubator situated next to the microscope reduces the risks associated with dish movement and associated temperature fluctuations.
- Operates inside most flow hoods
- Reduces dish movement
- Single handed loading and unloading
