The Corning LSE Benchtop Shaking Incubator combines controlled shaking and temperature regulation in a compact system designed for routine laboratory sample processing. Its true benchtop configuration features a low-pivot lid that minimizes the space required above the unit, allowing it to fit conveniently beneath laboratory shelving. A large viewing area allows samples to be observed without interrupting operation, while the precision-controlled shaking mechanism and uniform temperature environment support consistent processing of sensitive samples.
Microcontroller-based electronics regulate the shaking and temperature systems while monitoring motor speed, temperature, lid status, safety functions, operating time, and self-diagnostic conditions. With multiple shelving options and capacity for up to four 1 L flasks, the LSE is well suited for routine applications in biochemistry, microbiology, and medical laboratories.
All of our equipment is fully tested to perform at factory specifications before being shipped.
The Corning LSE Benchtop Shaking Incubator includes:
- 11.8 x 11.8 in. Platform
- Power Cord
- Operator's Manual
- Full 180 Day Parts and Labor Warranty
