SGC 110 Arabidopsis Chamber added to market leading range
The SGC 110 Arabidopsis Chamber is the newest addition to the market leading range and is centred on a core attribute of versatility.
The brand new SGC 110 Arabidopsis Chamber combines user friendliness and cost effectiveness with unequalled reliability and durability.
Providing the space for growing Arabidopsis to maturity under controllable light, temperature and humidity conditions, the SGC 110 is available with a range of shelving and lighting options. The standard shelving configuration provides a growing area of 1.9m2 and lighting can be altered to suit individual requirements. Additional illuminated shelf units can be added by users to provide additional growth area as required.
The SGC 110 offers a 'future-proof' solution to cope with the changing demands of Arabidopsis research with outstanding control. The temperature is adjustable between -2°C to 50°C (10°C to +35°C with full lighting) and an optional humidifier capable of providing up to 80% relative humidity is also available, further widening the range of capabilities that the SGC 110 can provide.
Key benefits include:
- Standard shelving gives a growing area of 1.9m2
- Shelving options offer up to 3.25m2
- Fully adjustable lamp trays
- Interchangeable lamps including UV lamps
