Achieve your next breakthrough. The Thermo Scientific™ Heracell™ VIOS CO₂ incubator is specifically designed to deliver the performance reliability, ease of operation, and value required to support a range of culturing needs from basic research to the demanding, leading-edge applications, so you're ready for whatever comes next.
Better solutions for optimal cell growth. Our CO₂ incubators with non-corrosive stainless-steel interior chambers provide the ideal in-vitro environment. Large 255L capacity provides space for high throughput applications and accommodates spaces for culture devices for larger sample output.

Direct heat chamber

255 L (9.0 cu.ft.) electropolished stainless steel chamber with compact footprint, easily stackable
Standard left hand door swing, field reversible by qualified service support

THRIVE active airflow

In-chamber fan gently distributes clean, humidified air throughout the chamber ensuring homogeneous conditions
Fast recovery of all parameters in 10 minutes or less for stable culturing conditions
Auto-stop function disables fan operation during door openings to minimize air exchange

ISO Class 5 HEPA filtration

In-chamber HEPA continuously filters the entire chamber air volume every 60 seconds
ISO Class 5 clean room air quality is achieved in the culture chamber within 5 minutes
Continuous protection minimizes airborne contaminants settling on interior surfaces

Covered Integrated humidity reservoir

Directly heated water reservoir provides stable high relative humidity levels, preventing culture desiccation
Cover limits particles and spilled media from settling into the reservoir, keeping water clean
Separating water provides a condensation free incubation chamber, limiting areas for contaminants to breed
5X faster humidity recovery than traditional water pan designs
Easy water handling: humidity reservoir may be filled or drained without removing shelves or cultures
Water level sensor indicates when a refill is needed

Steri-Run on-demand high temperature sterilization cycle

Independently validated overnight cycle ensures complete elimination of all biological contaminants
180°C cycle designed for uniform 12-log sterilization on all chamber surfaces
Simplifies cleaning and eliminates the need for separate autoclaving and reassembly of components

Intuitive, interactive iCAN touchscreen control

Bright LED screen to monitor all incubator interactions
Provides visibility to changes in culture environment with performance trend graphing, error and usage logs
Convenient on-screen user prompts and reminders for easy navigation
Selectable languages simplify operation: English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Japanese and Mandarin

Wireless Monitoring Solution

Thermo Scientific™ DeviceLink HUB™, our easy-to-install solution, works with the Thermo Fisher Cloud to monitor conditions inside your CO₂ incubators.
