Decontamination is easier than ever. The Model 3552 is the latest addition to the SHEL LAB 3500 series of CO2 Incubators. Featuring a dry, high heat decontamination cycle, the 3552 has the ability to maintain 180ºC for 120 minutes without having to remove or handle the IR Sensor!

"Unlike many competitors, SHEL LAB provides true sterilization with a unique 180 C decontamination cycle."-Dr. Roger Lippé, Professor at Université de Montréal, Montréal, Quebec. Read full product review here.

Since it is not necessary to remove the IR CO2 sensor prior to activating the decontamination process, potential damage to the IR sensor is eliminated. This is decontamination at its easiest and most effective.

Other features include a USB interface for software communication and a pre-heated copper CO2 gas inlet. This exclusive feature prevents condensation and reduces potential sites for contamination to form. Precise temperature control via an advanced microprocessor. An independent over-temperature safety controller is also integral to the design. To download the software necessary to use the 3552's USB features, please click on the image above.

"A… strong advantage of SHEL LAB incubators is the unusually long warranty on the incubator (5 years) and IR sensor (7 years). No competitor offers such an excellent warranty."-Dr. Lippé
