Precise & regulated environment

The Direct Heat and Air Jacket System provides accurate, uniform and highly responsive chamber temperature control. The Dual IR CO₂ sensor delivers rapid gas recovery without overshoot, even after multiple door openings.

This stable environment supports sensitive cell cultures and ensures reliable, repeatable results.

Continuous contamination prevention

The inCu-saFe copper-enriched stainless steel interior provides natural antimicrobial properties, while the integrated SafeCell UV-LED lamp continuously decontaminates circulating air and water in the humidifying pan.

This active background protection reduces contamination risk without affecting cultured cells.

Efficient workflows

Designed for busy laboratories, the MCO-173AICUV-PE enables efficient operation with minimal downtime. Stable conditions and rapid recovery times allow uninterrupted experiments and consistent results.

Key benefits

Optimised cell growth

Outstanding chamber stability ensures reliable cell culture outcomes and reproducibility.

Reduced contamination risk

SafeCell UV-LED and inCu-saFe interior provide continuous protection during operation.

Scalable capacity

165 litre chamber supports applications from R&D to clinical and production environments.

Easy to use & data ready

A new 7 inch color LCD touch panel allows intuitive operation, even when wearing gloves. Data logging and transfer via USB enable easy monitoring and documentation for laboratory processes.
