Description

Memmert ICO 240 CO₂ Incubator – 241 L (8.4 cu ft) | USA Lab

The Memmert ICO 240 CO₂ incubator delivers precise, stable conditions for cell culture, microbiology, and pharmaceutical workflows. With Peltier-assisted temperature control, advanced CO₂ management, and Memmert’s TwinDISPLAY interface, it ensures optimal growth environments with minimal drift and rapid recovery.

Temperature can be set from +18 °C to +50 °C with fine 0.1 °C resolution. CO₂ is digitally regulated (0–20%) via a dual-beam NDIR sensor with barometric compensation for consistent pH control. Passive humidity reaches up to ~93% RH with a water dish; optional K7 active humidity control enables precise 40–90% RH regulation or RH-Off, ideal for sensitive protocols.

A deep-drawn stainless chamber (241 L) with heated glass inner door, USB/Ethernet data logging, and built-in sterilization routines round out a dependable platform for research, diagnostics, and process development.

FAQ

What is the difference between ICO 240 and ICO 240 K7?

Both share the same chamber and temperature/CO₂ control. The K7 adds active humidity control (40–90% RH or RH-Off) for precise RH setpoints and faster recovery; the standard ICO 240 uses passive humidity (water dish) up to ~93% RH.

How accurate is the CO₂ control?

A dual-beam NDIR sensor regulates 0–20% CO₂ with barometric compensation. Expect ±0.2% variation over time and 0.10% setting increments.

Can I monitor and log data remotely?

Yes. The TwinDISPLAY platform supports logging via USB/Ethernet, email alarms, and multi-device monitoring (up to 32 devices).

Is there a built-in sterilisation routine?

Yes. The cabinet includes an automatic sterilisation program (60 minutes at 180 °C) with sensors sterilised in place.
