[. . . ] · A CO2 sample port mounted on the incubator front permits convenient confirmation of chamber CO2 density. · A two-stage regulator from the supply cylinder to the incubator is required. See Accessories. SafeCellTM UV System MCO-20AIC and 40AIC include SafeCellTM UV contamination control technology based on an integrated combination of narrow bandwidth, ozone-free ultraviolet light, ceramic infrared CO2 control, InCu SaFeTM copper-enriched stainless steel alloy interiors and Direct Heat and Air JacketTM heating managed by a microprocessor controller. These incubators offer the industry's most stable cell culture environment and are useful for the most critical applications where continuous contamination control is essential to cell viability. SANYO SafeCellTM UV Series CO2 incubators offer significant economic benefits by minimizing interruptions for decontamination, by improving cell culture growth and expression under stable, repeatable conditions, and by minimizing the potential for product loss. · SafeCellTM UV includes a programmable ultraviolet lamp, isolated from cell cultures, that sterilizes conditioned air and humidity reservoir water to prevent contamination without affecting cell cultures in vitro. · SafeCellTM UV inhibits the growth of mycoplasma, bacteria, molds, spores, yeasts and fungi without costly HEPA filter air scrubbers which accumulate contaminants in the chamber air. · All interior components, including the air management plenum, shelf supports, humidity pan and blower wheel assembly are easily removable without tools if required. · When components are removed, all interior surfaces are exposed for conventional wipe down. · Large curve corners and electropolished surfaces are easy to clean. Mycoplasma Strain Mycoplasma fermentans PG18 Mycoplasma orale CH19299 YES Mycoplasma arginini G230 Mycoplasma hominis PG21 NO YES ActiveBackground Contamination ControlTM AcontinuousActiveBackgroundContaminationControlTM process eliminates contamination without downtime. At the base of the plenum an isolated beam of high intensity, ozone-free ultraviolet light destroys contaminants in the air and in the humidity water reservoir, away from active cell cultures. · Contaminants trapped within the distilled water pan are destroyed by ultraviolet light. · Sterile, humidified air is released from the lower plenum for vertical convection through and around the 6 perforated shelves. Interior air motion is suspended when the door is opened, minimizing movement of room air contaminants into the chamber. · UV light is isolated by the plenum cover to protect cell cultures · Airborne contaminants are eliminated by an automatic UV cycle that automatically turns ON for a specified period after each door opening. · Trace contaminants that attach to interior surfaces are destroyed by the passive germicidal properties of the InCu SaFeTM surfaces. SafeCellTM UV Mode After Door Opening OFF 24 Hour Function UV lamp automatically ON for five minutes after door is closed decontaminates incoming room air. Useful for overnight decontamination prior to first use, clinical decontamination protocols between patients, or following total chamber wipe-out after maintenance or service. The SafeCellTM UV lamp cycle is factory set for normal use, and can be re-programmed as desired by entering parameters through the central microprocessor control panel. Conventional Copper C1100 InCu SaFeTM Construction for Germicidal Protection YES 7 Design & Technology Direct Heat and Air JacketTM Heating System The patented Direct Heat and Air JacketTM surrounds the inner walls with a natural convection airflow that converts to radiant wall heat through thermal conduction to achieve accurate, uniform and highly responsive temperature control within the chamber. · The microprocessor controller directs proportional distribution of power to independent heating sources surrounding the chamber. · Arranged in three zones, these sources include the side, top and rear walls, the chamber base and the outer door. · Each zone is controlled by the microprocessor which manages continuous feedback from the incubator chamber sensors. The patented Direct Heat and Air JacketTM heating system distributes proportional energy to the interior chamber through a natural convection air jacket surrounded by a high density insulation to protect against ambient temperature fluctuations CO2 Incubator Design Elevated Humidity, Low Water Level Warning To avoid cell culture desiccation, the MCO-20AIC & 40AIC CO2 incubator maintains ~95% RH at 37°C. · Humidification is achieved by a combined forced-air and natural evaporation method enhanced by the Direct Heat and Air JacketTM base heater, and protected by an optical water level indicator to warn of low water in the removable humidity pan. · When filled the pan slides into place and the optical sensor returns to position and the SafeCellTM UV lamp destroys any contaminants introduced during the process.
