Yamato IC803CW General Purpose Incubator With Window 318L

General Purpose Incubator With Window 318L Overview

The General Purpose Incubator With Window 318L (model IC803CW) is a natural convection incubator from Yamato Scientific, supplied through LabSupplies.com as an authorized dealer. Built around a 318 L chamber, this unit holds an operating temperature range of ambient +5 to 80°C. A dual-door design with a reinforced glass observation window lets staff inspect contents without opening the chamber and disturbing the internal atmosphere.

Air-jacket heating distributes warmth evenly across the stainless steel interior. PID microprocessor control paired with a K-thermocouple sensor delivers ±0.5°C accuracy at 37°C and ±1.0°C distribution. Glass fiber insulation surrounds the chamber, while the cold-rolled steel exterior carries a melamine resin baked finish. Heat is produced by a 0.7 kW iron-chrome wire heater.

Model IC803CW runs on 115V, and the IC813CW variant covers 220V installations. External dimensions measure 32 × 30 × 73 inches, with a shipping weight near 355 lbs and an interior of 600 × 530 × 1000 mm. Self-diagnostic functions, automatic overheat prevention, and a key lock support unattended operation. Country of origin is listed as CH per the manufacturer data.

Key Features

• Dual-door observation: a reinforced glass inner door with a 250 × 700 mm window allows viewing without releasing chamber heat.
• Air-jacket heating: natural convection through an air jacket distributes temperature evenly across the 318 L chamber.
• Digital control and timer: an easy-to-read digital display with auto start/stop and quick auto stop manages set temperature and run time.
• Temperature performance: PID microprocessor control with a K-thermocouple sensor maintains ±0.5°C accuracy at 37°C and ±1.0°C distribution.
• Safety suite: self-diagnostic functions for sensor, display, and measured-temperature errors, plus automatic overheat prevention and a key lock.
• Voltage options: IC803CW supports 115V circuits; IC813CW supports 220V circuits.

How to Choose the Right Incubator

Matching an incubator to a lab workflow comes down to chamber size, thermal performance, and the electrical and physical constraints of the install site. Use these criteria to confirm fit before ordering.

• Capacity: the 318 L chamber suits sample batches and labware that need vertical and shelf space; confirm your throughput against the 600 × 530 × 1000 mm interior.
• Temperature range: an ambient +5 to 80°C window covers common 37°C culture and elevated-temperature drying or conditioning tasks.
• Control type: PID microprocessor control with K-thermocouple sensing favors applications needing tight, repeatable setpoints over simple thermostatic units.
• Voltage: select IC803CW for 115V service or IC813CW for 220V service to match available site power.
• Footprint: verify bench or floor clearance against the 32 × 30 × 73 inch exterior and 355 lb weight before delivery.
• Safety: automatic overheat prevention, self-diagnostics, and a key lock matter for unattended overnight runs and shared-lab access control.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating temperature range of the IC803CW incubator?

The IC803CW operates from ambient +5 to 80°C. It uses PID microprocessor control with a K-thermocouple sensor for ±0.5°C accuracy at 37°C and ±1.0°C temperature distribution.

What is the chamber capacity and interior size?

Chamber capacity is 318 L. The interior measures 600 × 530 × 1000 mm, and the unit's exterior dimensions are 32 × 30 × 73 inches.

What is the difference between the IC803CW and IC813CW?

The only difference is electrical input. IC803CW runs on 115V and IC813CW runs on 220V; chamber, temperature range, control system, and construction are identical.

What power does this incubator require?

The incubator uses a 0.7 kW iron-chrome wire heater. Choose IC803CW for a 115V circuit or IC813CW for a 220V circuit to match site power.

What materials are used in the chamber and exterior?

The interior is stainless steel and the exterior is cold-rolled steel plate with a melamine resin baked finish. Glass fiber provides the chamber insulation.

Can contents be viewed without opening the incubator?

Yes. A dual-door system includes a reinforced glass inner door with a 250 × 700 mm window, letting staff view samples without disrupting the chamber atmosphere.
