IKA launches eco-friendly cooled incubator

IKA expands its temperature chamber portfolio with the new INC 125 FC digital cooled incubator, designed for environmentally conscious and efficient lab work. Complementing the INC 125 F digital and INC 125 FS digital incubator shaker, the INC 125 FC offers precise temperature control from -5 to 100 °C and the largest volume in its class at 125 liters—ideal for microbiological testing, stability studies, and cell cultivation.
Eco-friendly and energy-efficient, the INC 125 FC uses natural refrigerant R290 and a microchannel condenser for effective heat extraction. Its demand-controlled electronic expansion valve ensures high cooling capacity and fast cooling rates while minimizing energy consumption. Excellent insulation, a 10-level recirculation mode, and an integrated defrost function further enhance efficiency and reduce operating costs.
Designed for hygiene and durability, the inner chamber is made of corrosion-resistant AISI 304 stainless steel with rounded corners and smooth surfaces for easy cleaning. A decontamination mode helps prevent cross-contamination.
Space-saving and stackable, up to two INC units can be stacked with the right accessories, making it ideal for compact lab environments.
IKA also offers calibration and qualification services, ensuring accuracy and compliance with lab standards. Certificates and documentation are available upon request.
