VWR Forced Air Incubator, Cat. #: 414005-124
The VWR Forced Air Incubator, Cat. #: 414005-124 combines microprocessor-controlled temperature with a state-of-the-art design that delivers a true fan-circulated convection while offering improved temperature uniformity for a wide range of general-purpose incubation applications. The forced air mechanical convection design enables fast drying through the use of a blower that circulates heated air in a horizontal airflow pattern. This provides precise temperature control from Ambient +8°C to 65°C with a uniformity of ± 1.0°C at 37°C.
Additional features include a 3.3 cm (1.3 in.) stainless steel ventilation cap, two doors (one solid, one glass), high temperature grade foamed silicone rubber door gaskets, over-temperature and over-current protection, sensor error detection, and more. The VWR Forced Air Incubator is constructed with a durable, powder-coated steel exterior and stainless-steel interior. A locking mode is featured and assists in preventing unintended temperature changes. Users may also take advantage of the 120V, 60Hz, 1A interior outlet.
All of our equipment is fully tested to perform at factory
specifications before being shipped.
The VWR Forced Air Incubator, Cat. #: 414005-124 includes:
- > 2 Shelves
- > 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
