New Brunswick Galaxy 170S CO2 Incubator w/ Sterilization Cycle
The New Brunswick Galaxy 170S CO2 Incubator w/ Sterilization Cycle is designed to and serves to provide stable and homogeneous atmosphere required for cell culture by controlling temperature and carbon dioxide for cultivating samples and cells from biological laboratories. This incubator is microprocessor-controlled and is designed to ensure accurate and reliable operation, with a sophisticated control system that allows for easy programming, control, and monitoring of chamber conditions. A direct heating system, utilizing a thermal heating element, surrounds the incubator, providing an even temperature within the chamber with a range from Ambient +4°C to 50°C. The independently and directly heated outer door is designed to ensure an even distribution of heat. A solid-state infrared sensor is used to control the level of CO2, providing excellent reliability, while remaining unaffected by humidity. The New Brunswick Galaxy 170S CO2 Incubator w/ Sterilization Cycle incorporates a two-level alarm system. The system alarms occur only if a problem develops with system components that require user intervention to rectify. The incubator also incorporates an over-temperature safety system that operates independently from the main control system. This Galaxy 170S model also features a high-temperature disinfection cycle, which quickly and conveniently disinfects the incubator's chamber at 120°C, without the need to remove interior components or the CO2 sensor. This cycle holds the temperature for 4 hours, and then cools the chamber down to 37°C or the programmed target temperature. All of our equipment is fully tested to perform at factory specifications before being shipped.
The New Brunswick Galaxy 170S CO2 Incubator w/ Sterilization Cycle includes:
- > 3 Shelves
- > Drain Tray
- > NIST Calibration and Preventative Maintenance Report
- > Power Cord
- > Operator's Manual
- > Full 180 Day Parts and Labor Warranty

- Inspect the display for any dim, flickering, or dead pixels, replacing any affected areas to maintain full readability and operational clarity
- Thoroughly examine external regulators for any signs of damage, wear, or malfunction (if applicable), replacing any compromised parts
- Inspect temperature, CO₂, and H₂O sensors (if applicable), ensuring each sensor is functioning correctly and accurately reporting conditions
- Conduct a detailed inspection of all internal wiring for frays, tears, or breakages; replace any compromised wires to ensure safe and reliable connections
- Verify that software settings align with the internal components and calibration specifications, adjusting configurations as needed for accurate operation
- Inspect and clean the fan, ensuring it is free from dust or obstructions; replace if performance is below required standards
- Examine wheels and leveling mounts for structural integrity, ensuring proper balance and stability for safe operation
- Inspect door gaskets and latches for any signs of wear or damage, replacing if necessary to maintain a secure seal and optimal environmental control
- Calibrate temperature accuracy at 37°C using a NIST-traceable probe, confirming it meets required tolerances
- Calibrate CO₂ level to 5% using a Fyrite combustion test kit (if applicable), ensuring precise atmospheric conditions
- Monitor temperature and CO₂ stability over a 24-hour period, verifying consistent operation within specified ranges
- Conduct a thorough cosmetic inspection to confirm all external surfaces and components meet quality standards, free from visible damage or wear
