General Purpose Incubator With Window 159L Overview
Air jacket technology distributes heat evenly throughout the chamber, while PID control by microprocessor holds temperature accuracy of ±0.5°C at 37°C with ±1.0°C distribution. A K-thermocouple drives the control loop. The dual-door design pairs an outer door with a reinforced glass observation door, letting technicians inspect contents without disturbing chamber atmosphere.
Key Features
- Dual-door observation system: an outer door plus a reinforced glass inner door lets users view contents without disrupting chamber atmosphere.
- Air jacket heating: natural convection with air jacket technology delivers even, efficient heat distribution throughout the 159 L chamber.
- PID microprocessor control: holds ±0.5°C accuracy at 37°C and ±1.0°C distribution using a K-thermocouple sensor.
- Digital display and timer: simple digital setting with auto start/stop, quick auto stop, and fixed-temperature operation.
- Safety functions: self-diagnostics for sensor, display, and measured-temperature errors, plus automatic overheat prevention.
How to Choose the Right Incubator
- Capacity: the 159 L chamber (600 × 530 × 500 mm interior) sets how many plates, flasks, or samples you can run per cycle.
- Voltage: choose IC603CW for 115V circuits or IC613CW for 220V; match the unit to your facility's available power.
- Footprint and weight: Yamato lists external dimensions (W × D × H) of 710 × 656 × 870 mm (28.0 × 25.8 × 34.3 in); packed for shipping it measures 36 × 36 × 45 in at 245 lb.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the operating temperature range of the IC603CW incubator?
The IC603CW operates from ambient +5 to 80°C. It uses PID control by microprocessor with a K-thermocouple sensor, holding ±0.5°C accuracy at 37°C and ±1.0°C distribution across the chamber.
What is the chamber capacity and interior size?
The chamber holds 159 L with interior dimensions of 600 × 530 × 500 mm. Yamato lists external dimensions (W × D × H) of 710 × 656 × 870 mm (28.0 × 25.8 × 34.3 in); packed for shipping it measures 36 × 36 × 45 in at 245 lb.
What voltage does this incubator require?
The IC603CW runs on 115V. For 220V circuits, order the IC613CW, which is the same 159 L incubator configured for higher-voltage power. Match the model to your facility's available power.
What materials are used in the construction?
The interior is stainless steel and the exterior is cold-rolled steel plate with a melamine resin baked finish. Glass fiber provides heat insulation, and the inner observation door is reinforced glass.
What is the difference between the IC603CW and IC613CW?
