WATER JACKET CHAMBERS
The Water Jacket Incubator provides superior incubation stability above and below room temperature. Water is pumped from a water bath into the base plate and into the lid, which are both Water Jackets.Temperature is measured inside a reference Petri-dish and is controlled by circulating water from a water bath into the Water Jacket Chamber. The Temperature Controller reads the temperature in the reference well and updates the set point temperature of the water bath, ensuring a specimen temperature stability of ± 0.1°C.
Features
- Temperature Range: from 10/15°C BELOW Room temperature (depending on chamber model) to 60°C
- Temperature Accuracy: ± 0.1°C in sample feedback mode, ± 0.3°C in chamber feedback mode
- Water circulation in the bottom and lid of the chamber
- Inter changeable magnetic inserts allow to host Petri, Slides and MW Plates
- Magnetic locks hold the Petri, the Slides and the MW Plates in the correct position inside the chamber
- Perfusion holes for inlet and outlet of tubes

HUMIDITY MODULE
The Heating and Cooling Stage Top Incubator employes a bubbling column to humidify the gas prior to the inlet inlet in the stage top chamber.
The bubbling column is immersed in the water bath and a pre-heating coil ensures thermal equilibrium between the flowing gas and the water bath.
The tube connecting the bubbling column to the stage top chamber is isolated to prevent water condensation.
Features
- Gas is humidified by means of a bubbling column immersed in the water bath and a pre-heating coil
- Input (dry gas) is connected to the gas controller
- Output (humid gas) is connected to the gas chamber
The system comprises:
- Glass Bubbling Column (spare part code H101-BC)
- Pre-heating coil
ACTIVE HUMIDITY CONTROLLER
Active Humidity Controller controls the Relative Humidity inside the chamber in the range 50-95% with a resolution of 1%.
Features
- Connects to any Bold Line Gas controller
- Controlled via OKO-TOUCH
- Humidity sensor resolution 1%
- A heated tube connects the Active Humidity Controller to the Chamber
- Stand alone version (HM-ACTIVE-STANDALONE) is available to run the humidifier independently of the gas controller.
The dry gas is humidified by flowing over warm water. The Humidity sensor regulates water temperature in order to achieve the desired relative humidity in the chamber.
To prevent water condensation, the tube connecting the humidity controller to the chamber is heated.
OKO-TOUCH
OKO-TOUCH is an intuitive and user-friendly touch screen interface. It connects to any one of the Bold Line Controllers, detects all equipment in the system and displays all functions supported by the equipment detected.
It allows to:
- Turn all Bold Line Controllers on/off
- Define set point values
- Set flow rates gas controller
- Define gas cycles of gas controller
- Define temperature cycles of temperature controller
- Select sample or chamber feedback mode
- Select chamber model and plate adapter
