The CARON Model 6035 Insect Growth Chamber provides a unique high volume solution for a wide variety of entomological studies. Many standard features have been incorporated in the design to specifically support insect growth for genetic research in an environmental chamber.
Standard and Optional Features
Insect Growth Chambers
Models 6035-1 & 6035-3
 Standard Features
- A wide temperature range of 5șC to 60șC, combined with a humidity range of 20% to 95% RH, offers you the flexibility to simulate nearly any environmental condition.
- Temperature is controlled with a drift-resistant RTD sensor and humidity is controlled utilizing a capacitive sensor.
- Phenolic-coated refrigeration coils resist the corrosive effects of acids that are inherent in the rearing of insects such as drosophila.
- The stainless steel interior chamber and shelving are easily cleaned and highly resistant to corrosion.
- Sliding stainless steel shelves are easily adjustable without tools to customize the interior for your specific application.
- CARON's carefully designed horizontal airflow system generates evenly distributed airflow across all shelf locations. Maximum uniformity and rapid recovery are maintained even under heavy cabinet loads.
- Two access ports, one of each side of the chamber, make validation easy and provide you convenient access to connect instrumentation.
- An optional LED lighting system can be used to simulate diurnal (day/night) studies. This low profile, side mounted LED lighting system allows full utilization of the chamber interior and complete access to the sliding shelves. Unlike conventional fluorescent lamps, LED lighting is sealed against moisture and generates a very low heat load.
