Controller Percival’s Intellus Ultra con-troller is capable of controlling temperature, humidity, CO2 and lighting. The Intellus Ultra Control System is a single-board electronic solid-state design which includes a10 key membrane keypad with LED indicators and a vacuum fluorescent display. Programs may be configured to run in real time or countdown (circadian) mode. Ramping and non-ramping program methods are available for each pro-gramming mode. Multiple programs can be linked to create complex environmental pro-files. The Intellus Web Server (optional) allows for monitoring and controlling of the chamber via a web browser (requires Internet Explorer 6.0 +). This option allows for remote monitoring and programming of your chamber including alerts and current condition updates for up to five e-mail addresses. Please refer to www.percival-scientific.com for additional information regarding the control system.

Lighting System Four 32W fluorescent lamps mounted vertically on each side of shelf. Intensity is adjustable up to 80 µmoles/m2/s of light irradiance measured @ 6” from the lamps. Programming and control of the lighting is done via Intellus real time controller.

Applications These chambers have been designed for applications such as drosophila, culturing, rearing and holding of test organisms as well as bioassays, seed germination and product stability testing.

Many other applications exist for this product. Please compare your require-ments to the specifications.

I-36VL Biological Incubator

INCUBATORS

I-36VL Biological Incubator Cabinet Construction 22-gauge interior and 18-gauge exterior electro-zinc plated steel construction. All seams and joints on the outer and inner shells are welded.

Inner shell is supported by a non-compressing and non-ther-mal conducting material to lock the inner liner in place with-out a metal-to-metal bond to the outer case. The chamber is completely self-contained. Overall wall thickness is 2” (5.1cm). One 1 1/4” diameter access port is provided on the R.H. wall. Chamber floor is equipped with a floor drain and hose assembly. The chamber also contains caster assembly and adjustable leveling legs to compensate for floor uneve-ness in the lab.

Insulation Woodless construction using CFC free insula-tion. Overall wall thickness is 2” (5.1cm), ample insulation for maintenance of stated temperature range.

Door One door opening 29 3/16” x 57 1/2” (74 cm x 146

cm) provides full access to the chamber interior. A magnetic gasket provides a tight seal to door frame.

Interior Space 29.7 ft3 (0.84 m3) with a work area 23.5 ft2 (2.2 m2) provided on five tiers.

Shelving Five tiers of white epoxy coated steel wire shelving. Each shelf is 27” D x 25 1/8” W (68.6 cm x 63.8 cm). Shelves are supported by shelf clips which allows 1/2” vertical adjustments. The maximum clearance between shelves is 10 1/2” (26.7 cm) per tier with all five shelves installed.

Finish Interior and exterior painted with highly reflective, environmentally friendly, high temperature baked white pow-der coating.

Refrigeration 1/4 h.p. self-contained air-cooled con-densing unit with hot gas bypass system for continuous com-pressor operation, extended life and close temperature con-trol. This continous running condensing unit ensures precise temperature control by alternately cycling refrigerant and hot gas to the coil; this also prolongs the life of the compressor, and eliminates the risk of ice build up in the coil. Top mounted refrigeration system allows easy access for mainte-nance (e.g. cleaning). Also, as heat is rejected, it rises and is dissipated into the room without having any effect on the inside temperature cabinet. Solenoid valves have an extended stem for quiet and long life operation. Evaporator coil is ceiling mounted and incorporates twin air circulation fans in an aluminum housing. Heat rejection to ambient (standard chamber) =3500 BTU/hr.

Temperature Range 4° - 44° C lights on (± 0.5° C) and 2° - 44° C lights off ( ± 0.5° C).

Temperature Safety Limit Controls (Experiment Protection) Adjustable high and low tempera-ture controls, audible alarms and visual indicators are pro-vided. The controls shutdown all the power to the chamber, and activates alarms. When the temperature returns to the normal range the system will automatically reset.

Humidity Control (Optional) (This section outlines the H1 option) Additive humidity control of higher than ambient to 85% (± 10%) lights on for set tem-peratures between 15° to 30° C. Humidity control of higher than ambient to 90% (± 10%) lights off for temperatures between 15° to 30° C. Extended humidity ranges available.

See other catalog sheets or consult factory for additional information.

Options (most popular) Phenolic Coated Coils (required for drosophila research) (Q9), Glass door (Q12), Advanced Intellus Control System (C9), Communications Software (C9+), Advanced Intellus with Touchscreen and Internet capabilities (C10), Pan-type humidifier with Electronic RH Sensor (H1), Pan-type humid-ifier and dehumidifier with Electronic RH sensor (H3), Ultrasonic Humidifier with advanced RH Sensor (H11), Dehumidification via independent dehumidifying coil with reheat heaters and Ultrasonic Humidifier (H12), Ultrasonic Humidifier with Electronic RH sensor (H14), CO2 enrich-ment package, door with observation window and cover (Q2), door with fresh air ports (Q1), self-contained water-cooled condensing unit, dry alarm contacts (S2), dimmable lighting (closed loop with PAR light sensor)(Q22), dimmable lighting (open loop control)(Q23), extended temperature ranges available. See other catalog sheets or consult factory for additional accessories.

Convenience Receptacles Two 115/1/60 conven-ience receptacles provided inside chamber.

Electrical Service Requirements 115/1/60 - 12 amps (total) for standard chamber. Power cord and grounded plug provided. If humidity system is selected as an option, a de-mineralized water supply line is required which termi-nates to a 1/2” MPT connector.
