Caron 7001-50 High-Capacity Refrigerated Incubator / Temperature Chamber (50 cu ft / 1,416 L) — 5–70°C, Optional 0°C

Quote

The Caron 7001-50 Refrigerated Incubator is a high-capacity 50 cu ft (1,416 L) refrigerated chamber designed for labs and industrial environments that need stable, repeatable low-temperature incubation and temperature-only conditioning at scale. With a standard operating range of 5°C to 70°C, the 7001-50 supports microbiology incubation, BOD-style testing, sample conditioning, and QA/QC temperature holds—making it a practical solution for teams that need more workspace and shelving than a mid-size refrigerated incubator can provide.

For colder protocols, an optional 0°C configuration is available (with low-temperature defrost support), enabling near-freezing incubation and cold growth studies. Published performance specifications—±0.1°C temperature control and ±0.5°C uniformity—help maintain consistent setpoints across loaded shelves. With 10 shelves standard and capacity up to 60 shelves maximum, the 7001-50 is ideal for facilities scaling incubation throughput while maintaining reliable temperature performance and day-to-day usability.

Description

Key Features & Product Highlights
