Stable microclimate for work with embryos: CO2 control, heating and HEPA-purification of air
with height-adjustable working surface and built-in microscope optics
The SS-250 IVF Smart Station is a compact protected workstation for embryological manipulation with heating, gas control and clean airflow.
Flat heated surface with built-in thermoplastic allows the dishes to move without lifting. Front and side doors facilitate the transfer of materials, and built-in microscope optics and adjustable height improve ergonomics.
Dimensions 840×620×1190–1440 mm; working area 826×420 mm, table height 840–1090 mm, weight about 80 kg without a microscope. Temperature: ambient +5...40 °C; CO2 0–10 %, oscillation ±0.2 %. HEPA 99.97 % for particles 0.3 μm; air speed 0–0.5 m/s.

Stability of the environment
- Three independent working areas (right, left, center) with separate temperature control
- CO2 is regulated in the range of 0–10% with a fluctuation of not more than ±0.2%
- Integrated heated glass keeps a smooth working surface
Clean air
- HEPA filter 0.3 μm with efficiency of 99.97% creates a clean airflow
- The air flow speed is regulated in the range of 0–0.5 m/s
ergonomics
- The height of the desktop is adjustable from 840 to 1090 mm
- Built-in optics are suitable for most stereo microscopes on the market
- The front panel reclined for convenient and safe operation with the catheter ET
- Handles on both sides make it easier to move the station
