Diurnal Plant Growth Chambers: Developed with Mother Nature in mind, these chambers offer digitally controlled temperature and lightingday/night cycles to simulate the nurturing environment seeds and plants need for successful growth. Thestandard models shown below feature clock controlled temperature (hi/low) and lighting (on/off) suitable forstudying many plant species. These chambers have a temperature range of 2-50°C, ± 1°C at the sensor, andfailsafes to protect the chamber. For plants or experiments with more rigorous requirements, many optionscan be selected from the accessories sheet: the temperature control can be stepped up to a multi-point“ramp and soak” microprocessor, the number of lights can be increased (vertically, horizontally, or both),fresh air intake installed, LED lighting substituted, additive RH included, or horizontal air flow ducts added for better temperature uniformity under the lights.

• Nine Models available in various capacities from 285 Litres, 680 Litres, 765 Litres, 1220 Litres, 1470 Litres, 1670 Litres, 1780 Litres, 2065 Litres, 2235 Litres

 

Plant Tissue Culture Chambers: Our Model TCS33SD was designed for micropropagatingArabidopsis thaliana or other species fromplant tissue cultures in tightly controlled temperature and lighting conditions. The chamber hasfour slide out shelves, with low velocity conditioned air delivered uniformly under each shelf froma louvered plenum running down the rear wall of the chamber and extending under each shelf.
The louvers are adjustable so that very tight temperature uniformity can be achieved throughoutthe chamber at different temperatures (air density changes with temperature). There are six fixedlamp positions over each shelf to deliver dimmable light intensities from 0-370 micromoles at25°C. The highly reflective white walls increase the effectiveness of the lamps, as the lamps aresized to reach fully across each shelf. A free floating temperature sensor can be placed at the levelof the research material in the center of the shelf, so the correct temperature is delivered with plusor minus 1°C accuracy. The chamber can be run at temperatures as low as 7°C with lights on (forvernalization studies). It is also capable of functioning as an incubator, reaching temperatures of40°C or higher, if needed.

Salient Features:

• Microprocessor controlled temperature withdigital display
• 7-40°C temperature range with lights on
• Dual valve hot gas bypass on refrigeration system
• Digital clock-controlled hi/low temperature settingsand light settings
• Four tiers of fixed-position trays, each with a shelfand six LED lights
• LED lights are dimmable with a separate dimmer foreach light bank
• Four slide-out shelves are epoxy-coated steel wirecapable of holding 55 lbs (25 kg)
• Approximately 8” of growth height between shelfand lights
• Solid, insulated door with door lock
• Casters, locking, 4”
• Height of chamber sized to fit through doorways
• Powder coat white, grey, or black enamel exteriorfinish over steel
• Powder coat white aluminum interior with a stainless steel bottom pan
