Yamato IC603CW General Purpose Incubator With Window 159L

General Purpose Incubator With Window 159L Overview

The General Purpose Incubator With Window 159L (model IC603CW) from Yamato Scientific is a 159 L natural convection incubator engineered for routine culturing, sample conditioning, and warming work across an operating range of ambient +5 to 80°C. LabSupplies.com supplies this unit as an authorized Yamato Scientific dealer.

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.

Construction uses a stainless steel interior and a cold-rolled steel exterior with melamine resin baked finish, insulated by glass fiber. Internal chamber dimensions measure 600 × 530 × 500 mm. The 115V model ships at 245 lbs with overall dimensions of 36 × 36 × 45 in. Country of origin is listed as CH; a 220V counterpart (IC613CW) is also available.

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.
• Durable build: stainless steel interior, melamine-finished steel exterior, and a 0.4 kW iron-chrome wire heater.

How to Choose the Right Incubator

Selecting a general purpose incubator comes down to matching chamber capacity, temperature performance, and site power to your daily workflow. Use the criteria below to confirm the IC603CW fits your bench and protocols .

• Capacity: the 159 L chamber (600 × 530 × 500 mm interior) sets how many plates, flasks, or samples you can run per cycle.
• Temperature range: an ambient +5 to 80°C span suits 37°C culturing and warming tasks; confirm your target setpoints fall inside it.
• Control type: PID microprocessor control with a K-thermocouple delivers ±0.5°C accuracy at 37°C for consistent, repeatable results.
• Voltage: choose IC603CW for 115V circuits or IC613CW for 220V; match the unit to your facility's available power.
• Footprint and weight: overall 36 × 36 × 45 in and 245 lbs determine bench clearance and installation planning.
• Safety: self-diagnostics and automatic overheat prevention protect samples and equipment during unattended runs.

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. Overall exterior dimensions are 36 × 36 × 45 in, and the unit weighs 245 lbs.

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?

Voltage is the only difference. The IC603CW is the 115V version and the IC613CW is the 220V version; both are 159 L natural convection incubators with an observation window and identical specifications otherwise.

What safety features does the incubator include?

The incubator includes automatic overheat prevention and self-diagnostic functions that detect sensor errors, display errors, and measured-temperature errors. Operation functions also include auto start/stop and quick auto stop.
