A three gas mixer with Co2, Nitrogen, and ambient air for switching from normal Co2 experiments to hypoxic experiments. Has all the same features of the other units, but adds the Nitrogen to remove oxygen to levels from .1% to 10%. Has both a Co2 sensor and oxygen sensor built into the digital controller.
This system is a custom built acrylic enclosure utilizing In Vivo Scientific’s proprietary directed airflow system. We have a closed loop heating system that brings the heated air into the bottom of the chamber below our diffusion plate. This diffusion plate allows us to evenly direct the air from bottom of the chamber to the top of the chamber thus creating a significantly more precise heating system than any other chamber on the market(Please see our full description of this system in the ???) We than bring the heated air out of the chamber and back into the heater. This closed loop system maintains minimal fluctuation of temperature. We use a 3/8″ acrylic for 50% better thermal properties over standard 1/4″ systems. We have a single wrap that is bent to fit into the top and bottom plate to make the system stronger than glued sides. Utilizes In Vivo’s proprietary humidification system where the gas is brought to the sample through a tubing inserted into the water bath. This tubing does not allow for bacteria to enter the sample area while equilibrating the gas to 37 degrees and 95% humidity. We only bring gas and humidity to small area around the sample for less wear and tear on your microscope as well as a more precise environment.
