Tissue Culture Products CO2 Incubators Product information NuAire produce a range of CO2 incubators with unrivalled specification. Whether water jacketed or direct heat system, every incubator has a unique HEPA filtration system included within it. This keeps contamination to an absolute minimum and makes the incubator a clean room for your cells. The quality of air in the incubator chamber is the same as in your safety cabinet (Class 100 air). For extra safety the NU5510 offers sterilisation cycles up to 145o C giving complete peace of mind. There is no safer incubator on the market. For a demonstration of the efficiency of the HEPA filtration, please visit our website www.triplered.com – CO2 Incubators – HEPA filter demonstration video

Replacement cartridges and service contracts All pure water systems require replacement cartridges to keep the system in peak condition. These can often be expensive from the original manufacturer. Triple Red offer a less expensive solution whereby cartridges for most manufacturer’s are offered at reduced rates but with the same quality of cartridges as the original. It is a low cost way to keep your existing water system in optimum condition. It is also possible to combine the cartridges with a service contract and save even more

• Easy change cartridges • Optional UV in tank • Storage vessels from 30 to 80 litres
40 litres per hour Very compact design Disposable RO and pre-treatment cartridge
• Bench or wall mounted • Integral boost pump • Low cost disposable RO
General laboratory grade water is of a higher quality and is achieved using reverse osmosis and a further technology such as deionisation or electrical ion exchange. Typical applications are reagent or buffer make up, analyser feed and general applications. The range of laboratory grade products comes either as product and tank combination or the latest Compact unit (pictured left) which reduces required space and is more cost effective on initial purchase and running costs
“Very compact design” Dual Quality The Duo offers two qualities of water from a single unit. General laboratory grade taken from the tank and 18.2 mΩ/cm from the dispense gun
