Features of MCO-19M
Sterilization and Decontamination
- The unique H2O2 decontamination system limits downtime to less than three hours when total chamber sterilization with verification is desired. (Optional)
- All interior components and CO2 sampling loop are sterilized in situ; no need for removal and autoclaving.
- Active Background Contamination Control™ fights contamination while cell culture protocols are in process.
- The patented SafeCell™ UV system scrubs interior air?ow to destroy airborne and humidity pan contaminants. (Optional)
- Exclusive InCu SaFe™ copper-enriched stainless steel interior surfaces assure constant germicidal protection
CO2 and O2 Control
- Proprietary single-beam, dual detector infrared (IR2) CO2 sensor delivers precise CO2 control, quick recovery following door openings, and auto sampling with no moving parts.
- Continuous zero calibration is standard.
- An optional semi automatic, one-point calibration system is available. Catalogue No. MCO-SG, see accessories.
- Along with a high precision zirconia O2 sensor, a P.I.D. control is used for fast O2 level control
Control and Monitoring
- The MCO-19M control and information centre includes an intuitive pop-up menu, high resolution LCD for inputs, outputs and performance at-a-glance.
- Multi-point data logging offers push-button graphical display.
- An optional PC interface permits remote transmission for GMP/GLP protocols as required.
- Precise PID logic controls and adjusts to all temperature and CO2 set points and alarm parameters.
Temperature and Humidity Control
- The patented Direct Heat and Air Jacket™ Heating System manages set point temperature through multiple, variable warming points under microprocessor control.
- The humidity pan is easy to fill, easy to clean; the automatic optical sensor advises of low water level.
Cabinet Design
- High volume, low profile cabinets are stackable with field-reversible doors.
- Interior components and adjustable shelves are configured for easy access.
