Memmert IF30 incubator, 32 l, +20 to +80 °C, SingleDISPLAY

Product information "Memmert IF30 incubator, 32 l, +20 to +80 °C, SingleDISPLAY"

With an internal volume of 32 litres, the Memmert IF30 incubator has the smallest internal volume in the IF series and, with external dimensions of 585 x 704 x 434 mm, takes up a comparatively small amount of floor space. With forced air circulation and a temperature range of +20 to +80 °C, it is suitable for incubating and temperature-controlling individual samples or small batches.

Construction and air flow

An electronically controlled air turbine circulates the air inside the interior and can be adjusted in 10 % increments, whilst operating quietly. An electronically adjustable exhaust air damper mixes in preheated fresh air; the exhaust air outlet itself also features an electronically adjustable throttle valve. The interior of the IF30 is reinforced with deep-drawn ribbing and features a protected, integrated 4-sided all-round heating system; the housing has a fully galvanised sheet steel rear panel.

Control via the ControlCOCKPIT

The IF30 is controlled via a SingleDISPLAY with a high-resolution TFT colour graphics display; the temperature is measured by a DIN Class A Pt100 sensor using a 4-wire measurement. The setting accuracy is 0.1 °C. The SetpointWAIT function ensures that the process time only starts once the setpoint temperature has actually been reached; a digital countdown timer covers target times ranging from 1 minute to 99 days. Three freely selectable temperature values can be calibrated, whilst a self-diagnostic system assists with troubleshooting. The programme sequence remains stored in the event of a power failure, and the data logger can be read out and managed via the Ethernet interface.

Safety according to DIN 12880

A mechanical temperature limiter, protection class 1 according to DIN 12880, switches off the heating when the temperature rises to approximately 20 °C above the maximum cabinet temperature; in addition, the electronic temperature monitoring can be adjusted. The fully insulated stainless steel door with an internal glass door closes with a 2-point locking system as a compression door lock.

Guide to choosing the right size

With one stainless steel grid shelf in the scope of delivery and up to three possible shelves, the IF30 is designed for small sample quantities; the maximum total load is 60 kg, with 20 kg per shelf. Those who regularly wish to incubate more samples at the same time will find more capacity in the neighbouring IF55 with an internal volume of 53 litres and up to four shelves.

Typical applications

With an internal volume of 32 litres, the IF30 is suitable as an incubator for incubating and temperature-controlling individual samples or small batches in research, medicine, pharmacy, food analysis and food chemistry.

  • Incubation of individual samples in research and medicine
  • Temperature control of small batches of samples in the pharmaceutical industry
  • Incubation processes in food analysis and food chemistry
