The Heratherm Compact incubator IMC18 is a space-saving solution for small-scale microbiological incubation. The unit offers a stable temperature range of 17 to 50 °C. Thanks to Peltier technology, energy consumption is very low. Suitable for personal and mobile laboratory use.
The Thermo Scientific Heratherm Compact incubator IMC18 is designed for laboratories with limited space and small sample quantities. With a chamber volume of approximately 18 litres, this incubator is ideal for personal use and applications where shared equipment is undesirable. The compact design allows placement on virtually any workbench.
The IMC18 has a temperature range of 17 °C to 50 °C, enabling incubation both above and slightly below ambient temperature. Temperature stability is ±0.2 °C at 37 °C. A simple calibration routine supports reliable and reproducible results in microbiological applications.
Thanks to efficient Peltier technology, energy consumption is very low, approximately 14 W at 37 °C. The incubator features internal lighting for easy sample inspection and a mechanical convection system for even temperature distribution. This makes the IMC18 suitable for routine use, including in mobile or temporary setups.
