Binder B 28 incubator with mechanical adjustment
The Binder B 28 incubator from the B Classic.Line product series is a laboratory-approved incubator for areas of biochemistry or microbiology. With excellent equipment and simultaneous reliability and performance at high batch throughputs in long-term operation, it is also characterized by relatively low costs. Special features here are the safety glazing of the inner door (ESG), the hydraulic-mechanical thermostat operation and two chrome-plated slide-in grids.

The most important functions at a glance
This unit has a mechanically adjustable temperature range from 30 °C up to 70 °C. Should you heat the oven to 37 °C, you will find that it takes only 95 minutes, which is why the fastest possible work can be guaranteed. Sufficient safety and stability of the interior is ensured by the ESG glazing of the inner door, so that the temperature remains largely constant after heating.
The temporal temperature deviation is only one K. The temperature homogeneity is also given in the best possible way. Here, the spatial temperature deviation is only 1.5 K. This ensures optimum incubation of your various organisms. In addition, the existing fresh air flap ensures even heat distribution.
The hydraulic-mechanical thermostat allows you to regulate the temperature specifically as required for your individual incubator. You use the parking brake to set a specific temperature.
In addition, you will still find various control indicators on the device, such as the thermometer or a green and yellow indicator light, which on the one hand suggests that the incubator is ready for operation and on the other hand indicates the heating activity .
Discover the Classic-Line
Besides the already mentioned model, there are two other versions of the Classic.Line series.
On the one hand, the BD cabinet with natural convection, which incubates as gently as possible and is therefore optimal for heat-sensitive media. Here you can choose from the BD 23 model with 20 liters of internal volume and the BD 400 model with 400 liters.
And secondly, there is the BF incubator with recirculation function, which has an extremely homogeneous operation despite being fully loaded. This model is only available with an internal volume of 400 liters.
In addition, you can also choose between two nominal voltages from the incubator described in detail here. Here you can choose between 230 volts and 120 volts.
Sophisticated design and high functionality
What will your new incubator look like? You will get a highly functional and simply designed cabinet, which is one step ahead of other cabinets due to its ease of use. A red border that stretches horizontally across the front of the plain gray and white box-shaped incubator is particularly eye-catching. The handle and feet of the incubator are in a black color.
Six functions are displayed on the red surface. The control thermometer, the main switch, the two indicator lights, the thermostat and the thermostat parking brake. The control thermometer shows the current temperature inside, with the main switch they turn the device on or off, with the thermostat you regulate the temperature manually and the associated parking brake sets the certain value. The green indicator light shows you that the unit is ready for operation, and the yellow light tells you about the heating activity.
The back of the unit shows you different functions depending on the model you select, while there are three functions on the 230V model, there are only two on the 120V model. On both models you will find the power cord that connects to the power and the unit fuse, on the 230V model you will also find the class 1 over temperature protection device.
The interior is made of stainless steel. However, the slide-in grids are chrome-plated. In addition, all corners and edges are coated without exception. The inner door inspires with a safety glazing (ESG).
Technological features
The following six technologies make the Binder devices unique:
First, the company uses APT.line(TM), which means "Advanced Preheating Technology. It is a unique heating system to ensure temperature homogeneity inside the incubators. Secondly, SynergyLight(TM) is used. It is a kind of light cassette with special light sources. The light intensity is then detected by Light Quantum Control(TM) via 3D sphere sensors.
In addition, a controlled humidity system is used in CO2 incubators, which is called CoPERMADRY(TM). Intelligent software is also used in vacuum drying ovens, which detects the end of drying based on the pressure curve and automatically starts ventilation. This technology is called SmartVent.
Finally, the CO2 -FailSafe function is used to ensure the survival of cell cultures in this equipment by keeping the CO2 concentration stable in the event of a failure.
For safe use
As the most important precaution, it should be noted that you should never operate the models without observation. You should not transport the unit by the handle, but lift it by the feet of the unit with four people. If you want to set up the device, make sure it is in an enclosed, dry and non-combustible place, which should be level. Also, there should be no explosive agents nearby, otherwise there is a DANGER OF LIFE. The room temperature here should be between 18 and 40 °C.
The mains voltage should also be checked before first use. During use, do not touch or cover the air outlet slots. In addition, the model must not get wet during operation or maintenance work. All maintenance work must be carried out by qualified electricians.
When cleaning, disconnect the power plug, do not spill liquids on it afterwards and allow it to dry completely before putting it into operation. Also, protect your eyes and avoid skin contact when using any cleaning or disinfecting agents.
All technical details
The manufacturer focuses on ensuring a perfect simulation of chemical, biological and physical environmental conditions. In doing so, the company is committed to the technical improvement of human health and safety, not only providing the necessary technical equipment, but also promoting holistic projects such as environmental protection.
In order to give you an overview of the technical data in addition to the functional features, we have briefly summarized them here.
Dimensions
This model is a very space-saving device, which can be integrated into even the smallest laboratory. It is only 580 mm wide, 405 mm high and 425 mm deep without attachments or connections. The interior offers enough space for any working materials, as it is only 400 mmm wide, 280 mm high and 250 mmm deep. Thus, the interior has a total volume of 28 liters. The wall distance should be 160 mm at the back and 100 mm at the sides.
Weight
The incubator has a net weight of 23 kg. The maximum load is 25 kg. The maximum load per drawer is 10 kg. So you have enough capacity for your incubation.
Energy consumption
The cabinet has an energy-efficient rated power of 0.25 kilowatts and a mains frequency of 50-60 Hertz. The rated voltage is 120 or 230 volts, depending on the model.
