The Panasonic KM-CC17RU1A CO2 Cell Culture Incubator provides reliable sterilization with two decontamination processes in a single unit. It begins with a vaporized H2O2 application, thoroughly decontaminating interior components and the CO2 sampling loop.
A follow-up UV exposure cycle ensures additional sterilization while breaking down H2O2 into water vapor and oxygen. This process eliminates health risks and completes sterilization in under three hours, reducing downtime and eliminating the need for autoclaving.
To maintain a sterile environment, the incubator initiates a UV exposure cycle whenever the front access door opens. Its stainless steel interior, enriched with copper, further enhances contamination control. Precise temperature regulation is achieved through three independent heating zones controlled by a microprocessor with PID technology. The system maintains temperatures between +5°C above ambient and +50°C, ensuring uniformity within ±0.25°C at 37°C.
A natural evaporation system, combined with a water pan, maintains humidity at 95% at 37°C, creating ideal conditions for cell growth. The CO2 concentration is adjustable between 0% and 20%. At 37°C and 5% CO2, the maximum deviation is only ±0.15%, ensuring a highly stable environment. These advanced features make the incubator an excellent choice for sensitive cell culture applications.
