Uniform

Patented forced air convection system generates simultaneous vertical and horizontal airflow throughout the chamber, delivering even temperature distribution across all shelf positions for controlled incubation, sample storage, and testing.

Cooled

Active cooling capability maintains stable temperatures down to 0°C, supporting BOD testing, cold storage, and germination applications where precise low-temperature control is critical to result accuracy.

Stable

Microprocessor controls with Fuzzy Logic continuously adjust chamber inputs in real time to maintain stable conditions without overshoot.

Versatile

With a working range from 0°C to 100°C and a line of benchtop and floor-standing configurations, the Friocell adapts to a wide range of incubation, cold storage, germination, and stability testing applications.

Built to Maintain Consistent Conditions

Durable chamber construction designed to efficiently maintain internal conditions for safe incubation and sample storage.

Friocell cooled incubators are engineered for laboratory and research environments where chamber construction directly affects temperature uniformity, cleanliness, and long-term reliability. With an AISI 304 stainless steel interior and five layers of insulation, the Friocell is built to deliver consistent performance and efficient operation under demanding daily use.

  • Seamless 304 stainless steel chamber with rounded corners to simplify cleaning.
  • Fully removable inner chamber walls improves access for cleaning and maintenance.
  • Molded shelving brackets in the chamber walls spaced 2.8″ apart.
  • 4-point door latch system securely seals the door to the chamber gasket.
  • Five layers of insulation minimizes heat loss and efficiently maintains chamber conditions during incubation cycles.
  • Standard 2″ stainless steel access port with 1″, 2″, and 4″ options available for routing sensors, probes, or external connections.
  • Inner glass door allows sample viewing without disrupting chamber conditions.

Precise, Adaptive Temperature Control

Fuzzy Logic microprocessor controls that continuously adapt to maintain precise, stable chamber conditions.

The Friocell is available with two controller options to match the demands of your application. Both the ECO and EVO controllers use Fuzzy Logic to continuously monitor chamber conditions and adjust inputs in real time for precise, stable temperature control. The ECO offers straightforward programmability for essential testing needs, while the EVO adds a larger touchscreen display, graphic cycle visualization, and expanded program capacity for a wider range of incubation and storage profiles.

Precise Temperature Uniformity Through Patented Forced Air Convection

Simultaneous vertical and horizontal airflow that eliminates temperature gradients across every shelf position.

The patented forced air convection system generates simultaneous vertical and horizontal airflow that circulates from the bottom of the chamber to the top, simulating natural airflow principles. The result is uniform temperature distribution throughout the chamber, ensuring consistent conditions across all shelf position for controlled incubation, sample storage and testing.
  • Simultaneous vertical and horizontal airflow eliminates the hot and cold zones common in single-direction forced air incubators.
  • Bottom-to-top air circulation simulates natural convection improving temperature accuracy and stability.
  • Stable and uniform temperature for safe incubation and storage of samples.
