Astec EC10 Bench Top
Incubator - Outstanding
Capacity and Space Efficiency
New EC10 Bench Top Incubator
Astec is the world leader in compact bench top incubators. With our new EC10 Bench Top Incubator, we offer increased incubation capacity in an even more space efficient package than before! This allows you to increase the number of cycles processed without having to expand your laboratory space!
Now Offering More Capacity in Less Space!
Compared to conventional models, EC10's depth and height have been reengineered, allowing easy access to the rear chambers. (171mm → 110mm). Each Chamber is independently temperature-controlled and the unit also comes with a built-in Gas Mixer with rapid temperature recovery, utilizing Astec’s unique state-of-the-art heating system.
Elegant Bottom Plate Design
Each chamber can accommodate 6x35mm dishes, 3x60mm dishes and 2x4 well dishes. With its unique design, a bottom plate securely holds dishes in place for proper placement and maximum storage capacity. Custom plates can be ordered and are available separately.
Proprietary Observation Window
Each chamber is protected & sealed by a tempered glass observation window, allowing the user to check the culture inside without having to open the chamber and disturb the sample.
Safety is “Always” On
EC10 comes with an analog output and BMS (contact relay) as a standard redundant safety feature. It can be easily connected to an external device such as our LabKeeper Cloud Monitoring System that can call or text you if there are any irregularities while you are not in the lab. This enables you to remotely protect and monitor your samples with peace of mind.
Convenient Sampling Ports
EC10 is designed with easy access and convenient sampling ports located in front of the unit. This allows the operator to access these ports without the need to move or reach behind the unit & possibly disturb the cultured sample.
Secondary Temperature Sensors
EC10 is also equipped with a secondary temperature sensor for each chamber. The sensor reading is available through the jack ports in the front of the device. This feature enables you to easily adhere to lab quality assurance & safety protocols. Daily temperature checks are now possible while the dishes remain inside.
