Laboratory operators are not unfamiliar with biochemical incubators, and are even very familiar with them. But for procurement personnel, it's different because in their eyes, as long as the purchase is good, they can return it. Therefore, when purchasing, they will compare prices with three suppliers after inquiring with the manufacturer.
Due to different quotes from each company, those with good quality and high quality will naturally be much more expensive, while those with similar prices will not have a significant difference in labor costs. Choosing a biochemical incubator should be based on one's own needs, with the main factors being: inner tank volume, inner tank material, constant temperature range, temperature display method, refrigerant, and other five key points.
1. Inner tank capacity: The size of the capacity determines the number of inner tank cultivation racks. Buying too small is not enough, buying too large takes up laboratory space.
2. Inner liner material: 304 stainless steel inner liner is the mainstream. Stainless steel inner liner is more corrosion-resistant and durable than traditional cold-rolled steel plates.
3. Temperature control range: The incubator can be classified into ordinary type, low-temperature type, and ordinary type according to the temperature control range. The constant temperature range of the ordinary type incubator is 5-50 degrees, and the constant temperature range of the low-temperature type incubator is -10-60 degrees.
4. Temperature display mode: divided into LED display and LCD display.
5. Refrigerant: Whether it is a fluorine free refrigerant, pay attention to environmental protection, and try to choose fluorine free refrigerants.
From the professional perspective of sales personnel, the production cycle and other factors are considered before deciding whether to purchase the product. The rest is to inquire with the operators about their needs and whether there are any special points to pay attention to, such as the stainless steel material for the inner container and the need for lighting devices and other functions.
