Binder Series KBWF | Growth Chambers with Light and Humidity
Homogeneous light in combination with a constant temperature and humidity is necessary to achieve ideal growth in plants or other organisms. A BINDER humidity chamber offers all this. This is how KBW Series growth chambers create ideal conditions for the culture using light and temperature. The KBWF series also offers a system for humidity regulation.
The APT.line™ preheating chamber from BINDER, in connection with fast-reacting humidity regulation, highly effective cooling and uniform light distribution, ensures natural growth conditions.
Series KBWF | Growth chambers with light and humidity
The BINDER climate chamber with illumination of the KBW series achieves homogeneous light distribution with its natural illumination. That allows this climate chamber to create constant lighting and temperature conditions.
Climate chambers with light and humidity for perfect climate simulation
Climate chambers with light and humidity from BINDER provide ideal growth conditions for plants and other organisms. The growth chambers in the KBWF series have been designed to allow light, humidity, and temperature to be set so as to simulate natural conditions. The temperature can be adjusted with the accuracy of a tenth of a degree between the range of 0 °C to 70 °C, while the humidity can be displayed accurately at increments of a tenth of a percent. The humidification and dehumidification system is controlled by a reliable microprocessor and humidity is regulated with a capacitive humidity sensor and steam humidification. Extensive program controls allow climate conditions to be simulated constantly and very accurately, even over extended periods of time.
Climate chambers with light and humidity for a wide range of tasks
The KBWF series growth chambers come with illumination cassettes as standard – they can be positioned variably and each have five daylight fluorescent tubes.
Plant growth tubes with the ideal spectrum for photosynthesis are available as an option for simulating perfect climate conditions within plant biotechnology, the timber and forestry industry, and the agricultural industry. The climate chambers with light and humidity are also suitable for use within the pharmaceutical and chemical industry, for basic research in quality assurance, and for material testing.
Climate chambers with light and humidity from BINDER are extremely user-friendly as well as guaranteeing constant and accurate performance. The units come with an LCD color monitor and a controller featuring interval programming.
