SANYO Design and Construction
InCu saFe Interior Surfaces
™
for Germicidal Protection
The CytoGROW GLP incubators
™
incorporate inCu saFe copper-enriched
™
stainless steel alloy interior surfaces
within a comprehensive design created
to eliminate contamination sources and
to mitigate the effect of airborne contam-
inants introduced through normal use.
• Selected to provide natural germicidal
protection without rust or corrosion,
inCu saFe expresses a natural ger-
™
micidal attribute to inhibit the growth
of molds, fungi, mycoplasma and
bacteria.
• All interior components, including
the air management plenum, shelf
supports, humidity pan and blower
wheel assembly remove easily for
autoclaving; no tools required.
• When components are removed,
all interior surfaces are exposed for
conventional wipe down.
• Large rounded corners and electropol-
ished surfaces are easy to clean.

Chart summarizes test results with four strains of mycoplasma. Results demonstrate how SANYO inCu saFe
copper-enriched stainless steel alloy offers germicidal properties of conventional C1100 copper, while maintaining
both corrosion-proof and discoloration-resistant properties of conventional Type 304 stainless steel.
Detailed test results are available from SANYO.
Ergonomic Cabinet Design
With a reversible outer door, a single
SANYO incubator offers the industry's
most flexible installation options avail-
able in either single or dual (stacked)
cabinet configurations.
• The low profile cabinet with door-
mounted control panel permits easy
access and display viewing.
• Cabinet knock-outs are predrilled
and tapped to eliminate drilling and
to simplify remounting of the field
reversible door.
• The outer door heater cable is
easily switched if a reverse opening
is required.

ErgoStack Low Profile Design
™
The CytoGROW GLP cabinet is
™
designed for stacking, allowing one
unit to be positioned on top of another,
doubling interior volume without
additional floor space.
• The low profile cabinet with
door-mounted control panel permits
easy access and display viewing.
• The combination of stacking and
reversible doors offers the industry's
most flexible installation options.
• An optional roller base is recom-
mended for stacked installations
to permit mobility if required;
see Accessories.

• The outer door closes against a
soft, easily cleaned magnetic gasket
designed to eliminate ambient air
shear across the glass inner door,
minimizing condensation.
• The outer door includes a universal
finger grip at each side.
• A door ajar alarm provides an audible
and visual warning if the outer door
is left open.
• Pass-through ports accommodate
probes or instrumentation leads as
required for specialized cell culture pro-
tocols. Each chamber includes a port
positioned in the interior, upper-left rear
wall, with dual silicone (non-VOC) stop-
pers inside and outside the cabinet for
added protection.
