Description:
- CO2 control device to achieve a stable, controlled increase of the CO2 concentration within incubators and CO2-Covers
- A built-in CO2 sensor permanently monitors the CO2 concentration in the air stream
- A micro proportional valve is driven by a digital PID loop controller, so that only as much CO2 as needed to maintain a certain CO2 concentration, is fed into the circulating air stream
- A pump controlled by the control unit transfers the generated air-CO2 mixture to the local incubation chamber at the microscope. No need for pressurized air supply!
- All incubation systems of the manufacturer can be supplied with a CO2-mixture by the CO2 Module S
- A Humidification Bottle (500 ml) is included in all PeCon oxygen reducing controllers, compensating the strong drying effect of the added gas
- Together with the O2 Module S of the manufacturer, a O2/CO2 mixture can also be generated and is transferred to the incubator via small or medium gas feeding
- Further modules of the incubation system can be put on top of the CO2 Module S and are automatically supplied with electrical power and communication signal via a system bus; the CO2 Module S is supplied with electrical power (24 VDC) via the system bus
- The module is operated exclusively with an external user interface (PC-Software Zeiss ZEN / Axiovision (V4.6 or higher) or TFT display at the microscope) and has no display or input panel
