Caron 7001-10 Stackable Refrigerated Incubator (10 cu ft / 283 L), 5–70°C, Optional 0°C
Quote
The Caron 7001-10 is a floor-standing refrigerated incubator built for labs that need dependable low-temperature incubation with tight control. It provides 10 cu ft (283 L) of workspace behind a single door in a 44.5″ W × 31.7″ D × 37″ H cabinet, and two units can be stacked with the factory stacking kit where floor space is limited. It is a strong fit for BOD-style testing, routine microbiology incubation, sample conditioning, and temperature-only QA/QC workflows.
Designed for controlled temperature incubation from 5°C to 70°C, the 7001-10 also offers an optional 0°C capability for near-freezing protocols and cold growth studies. Tight published performance specifications—±0.1°C temperature control and ±0.3°C uniformity—help maintain stable setpoints and consistent results across shelves, making it well suited to labs that need a low temperature incubator or refrigerated temperature chamber with documented stability.
Description
Key Features & Product Highlights
- Floor-standing refrigerated incubator: 10 cu ft (283 L) chamber in a 44.5″ W × 31.7″ D × 37″ H cabinet; optional swivel casters available.
- Stackable to conserve floor space: Two 7001-10 units can be stacked with the factory stacking kit, giving 20 cu ft of independently controlled capacity in a single footprint.
- Active heating and cooling: Holds set points at or below room ambient — the requirement that rules out heat-only incubators.
- Wide temperature range: 5°C to 70°C for incubation, growth studies, and QA/QC temperature holds.
- Optional 0°C capability: Enables near-freezing incubation for specialized protocols (with low-temp defrost support).
- Tight temperature stability: Published performance includes ±0.1°C control with ±0.3°C uniformity for repeatable results.
- Consistent results across shelves: Tight control/uniformity helps reduce run-to-run variability and supports reproducible incubation conditions.
- BOD and microbiology applications: Common fit for BOD-style testing and low-temperature growth of bacteria, yeasts, molds, and algae.
- Temperature-only chamber for QA/QC: Useful when humidity control is not required but repeatable temperature holds are essential.
- Scalable shelving: 3 shelves standard with capacity up to 15 shelves maximum.
- Durable, cleanable interior: Type 304 stainless-steel interior with perforated stainless shelving for lab use.
