Innova 40/40R
Benchtop incubator shaker with optional refrigeration for flasks up to 3 liters
The Innova® 40 and Innova® 40R incubator and refrigerated small-scale benchtop orbital shakers from Eppendorf are great for small scale projects, or for those looking to start small and grow.
Recommended applications:
- Cultivation of (thermophile) bacteria, yeast, fungi or insect cells
- Plasmid purification
- Mixing and shaking of samples (e.g. for staining, washing or hybridisation)
Features:
- High capacity in a small footprint: for example, 4x 5 L or 2x 6 L flasks on universal platform; device footprint 4731 cm2 /733 in2 (63.5 cm/25 in width, 74.5 cm/29.3 in depth)
- Ergonomical and safe interface handling: Top mounted controls and display make bending down unnecessary during handling, avoids accidental parameter changes, and can be reached easily even in a double stack
- Easy to clean: Spill diverter and drainable built-in spill pan with rounded corners protect the drive from accidental spills (can be used as a water reservoir to reduce sample evaporation); airflow UV-germicidal light optional
- Lab position flexibility: Lab position on or under bench, 2x stackable
- Parallel static cultivation: One height adjustable static shelf included, optional culture drawer and additional shelves available
- Sample evaporation protection: Bottom spill pan usable as water reservoir; optional culture drawer, for Agar plates, for example
- Visual sample control: Large viewing window and internal light provide easy viewing of samples without the need to open the door
- Reliable 24/7 with high loads: Proven and tested Innova® triple eccentric counterbalanced drive (three weight-supporting shafts), max. load 15 kg
- Programmability: Continuous, timed, or multi-step programming (15 steps), store up to four programs
- Options and Accessories: Orbit 19 or 25 mm, photosynthetic light bank, UV germicidal light, culture drawer for evaporation protection of Agar plates, additional static shelves (one included), humidity monitoring, remote monitoring with VisioNize® Lab Suite and more
