Description
Description
The Thermo Scientific™ Heracell™ VIOS 160i Dual Stack CO₂ Incubator combines advanced contamination prevention with reliable environmental control, offering two independently operated 165 L (5.8 cu. ft.) chambers in a single footprint. Each chamber features direct-heat temperature regulation, an integrated water reservoir, and a TC CO₂ sensor for accurate gas detection and rapid recovery after door openings.
This stacked configuration maximizes lab space while maintaining complete environmental independence between chambers—ideal for parallel experiments or different cell culture lines. The electropolished stainless-steel chamber minimizes contamination risk and simplifies cleaning.
An in-chamber HEPA filtration system provides ISO Class 5 air quality within minutes, and the LED interface offers clear, intuitive operation. The covered humidity reservoir maintains stable, high humidity to prevent desiccation, while optional 4–20 mA analog outputs and USB data ports support compliance and traceability.
The Heracell VIOS 160i dual-stack design supports reproducibility, safety, and productivity for demanding cell culture workflows.
