[0002] An incubator is a temperature-controllable box device mainly used for cultivating microorganisms, plant and animal cells. Some of them have a two-way temperature control system for refrigeration and heating. They are basic experimental equipment for scientific research departments such as biology, agriculture, medicine, and environmental protection. They are widely used in constant temperature culture, constant temperature reaction and other experiments. The main characteristics of the incubator are that the box body uses polyurethane and other foam plastics as insulation materials, which has good isolation capabilities against external cold and heat. The inner cavity is mostly made of stainless steel, which has strong corrosion resistance; it has heating, refrigeration and automatic temperature control devices, and can sensitively adjust the temperature inside the box.
