This Thermo Scientific Heracell Vios is a laboratory incubator, a piece of equipment also commonly referred to as a CO₂ incubator, used to maintain precise environmental conditions — including temperature, gas atmosphere, and humidity — for the culture of biological samples, cells, and tissues. Thermo Scientific is a well-established brand within the scientific instrumentation and life sciences sector, producing equipment widely used in research laboratories, hospitals, pharmaceutical facilities, and biotech environments.
This 2019 unit is offered in used condition from a location in France. The internal chamber measures 505 × 440 mm with a height of 665 mm, providing a well-proportioned working space fitted with three shelves for organising culture vessels and samples across multiple levels.
In terms of environmental control, the incubator reaches a maximum working temperature of 55 °C and is capable of a high-temperature sterilisation cycle reaching 180 °C, enabling effective decontamination of the chamber between uses. CO₂ concentration is controlled to a precision of ±0.1%, as is O₂ concentration, also held to ±0.1%, allowing the creation of both standard and hypoxic culture conditions. Relative humidity is maintained at 93% or above at 37 °C, a level that helps prevent sample evaporation during extended culture periods.
