Collection: Laboratory Incubators

Laboratory incubators hold cultures, samples and tests at a stable temperature for microbiology, cell culture, BOD testing and materials conditioning. The range covers Yamato Scientific general-purpose, refrigerated and eco incubators, Benchmark Scientific SureTemp convection, myTemp mini and SureTherm CO2 incubators, Incu-Shaker shaking incubators, and LW Scientific incubators. Every model ships from USA inventory.

Types of incubator

• General-purpose (heating) incubators — natural-convection units from ambient +5°C to 80°C for routine culture and warming (IC series, 37–567 L). Available with a reinforced-glass observation window so you can check cultures without opening the door and disturbing temperature.
• Refrigerated incubators — forced-convection units with compressor cooling for sub-ambient work down to -10°C, ideal for BOD, enzyme, and low-temperature incubation (IN series, 143–286 L).
• Eco refrigerated incubators — energy-saving non-CFC models with tight ±0.2°C accuracy for precise low-temperature work (INE series).
• CO2 and mini incubators — Benchmark SureTherm CO2 incubators in 45 or 180 L (H3565) and myTemp 20 L mini incubators in heat-only, heating/cooling and CO2 versions (H2200-H, H2200-HC, H2300-HC2) for cell culture and bench-side work.
• Shaking incubators — Incu-Shaker models from the Mini to 20 L, heat-only or refrigerated, plus a CO2 model (H1001-M, H2010, H3020, H3501), for incubating and shaking flasks in one unit.

Key selection criteria

• Heating-only vs refrigerated — heating incubators run from ambient +5°C; refrigerated models reach down to -10°C for sub-ambient protocols.
• Observation window — a glass inner door lets you inspect cultures without a temperature excursion; preferred for cell and microbiology work.
• Capacity — 37 L benchtop to 567 L floor-standing; size to your plate or flask count.
• Accuracy — ±0.5°C (IC) to ±0.2°C (INE) for demanding protocols.
• Add-ons — shaker integration and power hook-ups for combined incubate-and-shake workflows (IN-W models).
