VWR Forced Air Incubator, Cat # 414004-598
The VWR Forced Air Incubator, Cat # 414004-598 is for basic incubation with reduced air changes. With a temperature range of an 25°C to 75°C it is accurate within ± 1°C at 37°C and a heating time of 15 min. to 37°C and 30 min. to 50°C. It provides a safe environment while reducing drying samples out. The temperature sensor allows for repeatability and stability over an extended period of time. It has a digital backlit LCD display for easy viewing. All of our equipment is fully tested to perform at factory specifications before being shipped.
The VWR Forced Air Incubator, Cat # 414004-598 includes:
- > Shelf
- > Power Cord
- > 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
