Winpact SI-950 CO2 Incubator Shaker | Moist Heat

MAJOR SCIENCE · WINPACT · SI-950 Choose moist heat for your CO₂ shaker workflow The Winpact SI-950 combines CO₂ control, a 50 mm orbit and 10 to 180 rpm shaking with a manufacturer-listed 90°C moist-heat treatment. It is the moist-heat choice in the family, distinct from the SI-970 dry-heat model and the refrigerated, UV-equipped SI-960. Routine incubation is specified from ambient to 60°C at 23 to 26°C ambient. SI-950 is not refrigerated, and its 90°C treatment temperature is not an incubation setpoint range. A slide-out platform and 10-inch touchscreen support daily loading and run setup. Manufacturer family reference showing a single-module arrangement. The order determines supplied module count and accessories; labware shown is illustrative. 90°C Moist Heat treatment 50 mm Orbit diameter Ambient to 60°C Incubation at 23 to 26°C ambient 0.1 to 20% CO₂ control range Why laboratories choose this format Defined treatment choice Choose 90°C moist heat as a separate manufacturer-listed chamber treatment, not a wider incubation range. Controlled chamber atmosphere CO₂ 0.1–20% and a 50–95% RH specification support selection against an existing protocol. HEPA is optional. Accessible working area A 91 × 50 cm slide-out platform, glide-up door and touchscreen support daily setup. Which SI model fits my workflow? SI-910 · Refrigerated / UV 25 mm orbit; 10–300 rpm. No CO₂ or humidity control. SI-960 · Refrigerated / CO₂ / UV 50 mm orbit; 10–180 rpm. CO₂ and humidity capabilities. SI-950 · Current model · Non-refrigerated / moist heat 50 mm orbit; 10–180 rpm. Separate 90°C moist-heat treatment. SI-970 · Non-refrigerated / dry heat 50 mm orbit; 10–180 rpm. Separate 180°C dry-heat treatment. SI-910 and SI-960 specify refrigerated incubation at 4–60°C. SI-950 and SI-970 specify ambient–60°C incubation, not incubation at their heat-treatment temperatures. Each range has stated ambient test conditions. These are different model choices, not upgrade promises. Separate moist-heat treatment from incubation Choose SI-950 when the manufacturer-listed 90°C moist-heat method fits your laboratory cleaning procedure. The current specification lists no UV germicidal lamp. SI-970 instead lists 180°C dry heat, while SI-910 and SI-960 use UV. The 90°C figure identifies the heat-treatment function, not continuous incubation capability or a validated sterility guarantee. Confirm the approved procedure, treatment duration and what may remain in the chamber with the manufacturer before use. Blue Tiger Scientific specification comparison. Treatment temperatures are separate from incubation. This schematic is not a validated treatment procedure. Match CO₂, humidity and motion to your process A 50 mm orbit and 10 to 180 rpm shaking range pair with CO₂ control from 0.1 to 20%. The infrared CO₂ sensor has manufacturer-listed accuracy of ±0.1% and stability of ±0.5%. Relative humidity is specified from 50 to 95% RH. HEPA filtration is an option, not a standard inclusion. Confirm the gas and water requirements for the final configuration rather than assuming service hardware is supplied. Manufacturer family chamber detail. Listed layouts are alternatives, not supplied flask or holder quantities. Check the flask layout before choosing holders The 91 × 50 cm slide-out platform and glide-up door provide access for routine loading. The platform and inner chamber are SUS316L stainless steel, and internal illumination supports visual checks. Family maximum-capacity examples are 50 × 250 mL, 32 × 500 mL, 18 × 1000 mL or 15 × 2000 mL. These are alternative layouts, not supplied quantities. Check flask dimensions, retaining hardware and permitted speed together; larger or different vessels can change the usable layout. Nominal flask size Alternative family maximum 250 mL 50 flasks 500 mL 32 flasks 1000 mL 18 flasks 2000 mL 15 flasks Use touchscreen control without assuming a fixed recipe A 10-inch capacitive LCD touchscreen supports PID control and a manually editable program. The manufacturer specifies a timer of 9999 minutes or 9999 hours, a servo motor and forced internal air circulation. Choose operating settings around your process. The published specification does not establish a number of program steps or a heat-treatment duration; use the model-specific operating procedure for those details. Plan the room, power and stack arrangement The specified operating ambient range is 20 to 27°C. Electrical supply is single-phase 110 V or 220 V, 50/60 Hz. Confirm the required voltage and final connection details before ordering; the 800 W heating-power figure is not a total electrical-input rating. Stacking can help organize capacity vertically, but the illustrated three-module arrangement is not a package statement. Confirm supplied modules, stacking hardware, final installation dimensions, floor loading and service clearances for your order. Illustrative manufacturer three-module stack, not the supplied quantity, an installation drawing or a shipping-weight statement. Typical application fit CO₂-controlled shaking For workflows requiring regulated chamber CO₂ with 50 mm orbital shaking. Confirm the intended vessels, load and culture conditions.

SI-950 buyer questions How is SI-950 different from SI-970?SI-950 uses the manufacturer-listed 90°C moist heat treatment; SI-970 lists 180°C dry heat. Both are non-refrigerated CO₂ models with a 50 mm orbit, 10 to 180 rpm shaking, ambient-to-60°C incubation and no UV lamp. Choose the heat method around the approved cleaning procedure, not an assumed increase in incubation temperature.Can SI-950 cool below room temperature?No. SI-950 is non-refrigerated and its incubation range is ambient to 60°C at 23 to 26°C ambient. For refrigeration with CO₂ control, compare SI-960, specified at 4 to 60°C at 23 to 25°C ambient. SI-910 is also refrigerated but has a 25 mm orbit, a 300 rpm maximum and no CO₂ control in the current specification.Does the 90°C function mean I can incubate at 90°C?No. 90°C is the listed moist heat treatment temperature, not the incubation range. The public specification does not establish a treatment duration, permitted load or validated sterility outcome. Use the manufacturer's model-specific procedure and keep incubation settings within the stated ambient-to-60°C range.What atmosphere controls are specified, and is HEPA included?CO₂ control is 0.1 to 20% with an infrared sensor, ±0.1% accuracy and ±0.5% stability. Relative humidity is specified from 50 to 95% RH. HEPA filtration is optional, not standard. Confirm the gas and water requirements and any supporting hardware for the selected configuration.How many flasks can I run at once?The manufacturer lists alternative family maximums of 50 × 250 mL, 32 × 500 mL, 18 × 1000 mL or 15 × 2000 mL on the 91 × 50 cm platform. These are not included quantities or a guarantee for every flask design. Confirm vessel dimensions, holder compatibility and the permitted speed for your load.Does the order include the pictured stack, holders and labware?The photographs illustrate the family in single-module and stacked arrangements. Public specifications do not establish the supplied module count, holders, labware or complete accessory package. Confirm the order contents explicitly; the illustrated three-module stack is not a statement of what is included.What should I check before installation?Plan for a 20 to 27°C operating ambient and single-phase 110 V or 220 V, 50/60 Hz power. Confirm voltage, final electrical requirements, installation dimensions, stacking hardware, floor loading and service clearances for the actual arrangement. The specified 800 W is heater power, not total input power.Can I program a run from the touchscreen?The 10-inch capacitive touchscreen supports PID control and a manually editable program. A timer of 9999 minutes or 9999 hours is listed. The current specification does not establish a program-step count or heat-cycle duration, so confirm those details against the operating procedure rather than treating the timer limit as a cycle recipe.
