Model Guide

ICO
CO2 Incubator
Active RH control, short recovery times, six sided heating and interior heated glass door provides perfect climate for cell and tissue cultures. Battery back up for data logging and C02 control functional even during a power failure.

IPPeco
Peltier Cooled Incubator
Memmert's energy-efficient line of Peltier cooled incubators with set point temperature range 0C to +70C ensures sample quality in microbiology, food and beverage industry. This model line is best at bacteria count determination, cultivation studies, stability and aging test and shelf life tests.
Sample Storage Incubator Features
A sample storage incubator is a temperature-controlled chamber designed to preserve and monitor biological and chemical samples under defined environmental conditions. Unlike standard laboratory refrigerators, incubators for lab samples regulate temperature, humidity and airflow to support long-term incubation, stability testing and controlled biological storage.
Key features allowing laboratories to maintain reliable temperature-controlled storage for samples throughout long-term research and testing workflows include:
- Precise temperature regulation across defined ranges
- Uniform air circulation for consistent internal conditions
- Optional humidity control for sensitive biological materials
- Alarm and monitoring systems for sample protection
- Stainless steel interiors for contamination prevention
- Data logging and traceability for compliance and quality control
Applications of Sample Storage Incubators
Memmert sample storage incubators are used across a wide range of scientific and industrial applications, including:
- Microbiology: Controlled incubation and bacterial culture storage
- Cell biology: Long-term storage of cell cultures and biological specimens
- Pharmaceutical research: Stability testing and shelf-life analysis
- Biological storage: Preservation of temperature-sensitive materials
- Laboratory sample storage: Daily research workflows requiring temperature-controlled environments
For laboratories requiring lower temperature ranges, Memmert also offers refrigerated and Peltier-cooled incubators for advanced sample preservation and stability testing.
Sample Storage Incubator Size Options
Memmert sample storage incubators are available in a full range of chamber sizes to meet the needs of laboratories of all types and volumes. Small sample storage incubators under 100 liters are ideal for benchtop use and low-volume biological storage. Medium-sized models from 100 to 700 liters provide flexible capacity for routine laboratory sample storage and long-term incubation workflows. Large sample storage incubators over 700 liters are designed for high-volume applications such as pharmaceutical stability testing, microbiology research and long-term biological storage, delivering uniform temperature control across the entire incubation chamber.
