This is the answer to high temperature incubation and shaking in a compact and easy to use package. All the advantages of the Multitron are there, such as user-friendliness and optimal use of space provided by the modular structure and the downwards opening door. The integrated microprocessor offers flexible controllability. The design of the housing minimises heat losses as there are no "thermal bridges" and the electronics are outside the incubation chamber and so cannot be affected by the high internal temperatures.
