Percival Plant Incubator E-36L

Instrument Introduction:

PERCIVAL Technology, located in Iowa, Midwest United States, with a century of experience in producing temperature controlled incubators, produces various temperature and humidity control enclosures for plant cultivation, seed germination, light cultivation, drug stability testing, and more. Many authoritative and well-known research institutions in China, such as Peking University, Tsinghua University, Fudan University, Shanghai Institute of Botany of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Institute of Quality of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Institute of Life Sciences of Hebei Normal University, Tianjin Pharmaceutical, etc., are also using various products of PERCIVAL. Their continuous light intensity control and horizontal airflow control technologies are currently leading internationally, especially their E-30LED - red, far red, and blue three color light plant culture chambers, different specifications of Arabidopsis thaliana growth chambers, fruit fly culture chambers, and drug stability testing chambers, which will become powerful assistants for you to conduct plant photoresponse, photosynthesis research, genome analysis, gene mutation sequencing and other plant molecular biology research, as well as to use fruit flies as model organisms for related research and drug stability testing in new drug approval.



technical parameter：

• Internal effective volume: 840L
• Temperature range: 10-44+/-0.5 º C
• Light intensity: 550umol/m2/s
• Maximum plant growth height: 52.1cm
• External dimensions: 85x86x135.6cm
• Standard partition: 2 layers

1. Internal volume: 840L.
2. Comes standard with two layers of partitions, each with a plant growth area of 0.5m²The plant grows at a height of 521mm per layer.
3. Working temperature range:+10 º C~+45 º C when turning on the lights,+4 º C~+40 º C when turning off the lights; The temperature control accuracy is 0.1 º C, and the temperature level uniformity is ± 0.5 º C.
4. Light source system: illumination intensity of 550 micromoles/m²/s. Equivalent to 43450 lux.
5. The light source is a horizontal top light source, which is most suitable for plant growth and avoids the bending growth of plants towards light caused by side wall light sources and vertical light sources. The height of the light source and shelf can be adjusted according to the application, and the light source is layered to ensure uniform illumination.
6. There are two types of light sources, one is a cold light source, namely Filipe tube, and the other is a light bulb, which compensates for the missing ultraviolet band of the tube.
7. Horizontal airflow method ensures uniform distribution of wind and temperature inside the studio, eliminates local temperature and humidity differences, and creates a favorable environment for plant growth.
8. Humidity controller H1, humidity control range: the humidity of the lighting environment is up to RH60%, the humidity of the lighting environment is 90%, the accuracy of the humidity sensor is ≤ 3% RH, and the accuracy control accuracy of the box is ≤± 10%; Various other humidity controllers are available for selection
9. The incubator has a defrost cycle function and can be used normally in low temperature and high humidity environments.
10. Using a standard intelligent microcontroller to solidify the program control system: easy to operate, able to accurately control related parameters such as temperature, humidity (optional), lighting, and CO2 (optional); Up to 8 types of light intensity adjustment, with optional continuous light intensity adjustment device; Simple day night mode, 24-hour real-time program operation mode, and animal and plant physiological cycle mode can be set; 500 program steps can be developed; It can store a total of 50 programs; Execute operations according to the set program for years and months. The screen can display help files and prompt users at any time.
11. Security system: temperature protection control, high and low temperature protection, sound alarm, visual display; The light source lifespan alarm function automatically accumulates the usage time of the light source, and when the lifespan is reached, an alarm notifies the user to replace the light source. This function reduces experimental errors caused by light source attenuation; Troubleshooting alarm function, with automatic permanent storage of programs and parameters, and backup battery for emergency data storage.
12. Temperature control system: an air cooling/heating device with a hot air bypass system, which keeps the compressor running during operation, extending its lifespan and eliminating the phenomenon of ice formation on the surface of the heat exchanger.
13. Use environmentally friendly refrigerants that do not contain fluorocarbons (CFCs).
14. The box wheel foot is a highly durable rotating wheel foot that can be locked at any time and has adjustable balance.
15. The door is equipped with a magnetic sealing gasket, which makes the door close more tightly. The surface of the box is coated with an environmentally friendly powder coating to prevent scratches and improve durability.
