KKS 240 - Climatic chamber with steam humidifier
Applications
- Plant growing and tissue culture
- Seeds germination
- Microorganisms and insects breeding
- Any kind of research that requires a stable temperature and humidity environment
The KKS climatic chambers with a steam humidifier do not emit ultrasounds and therefore allow insects breeding (e.g. Drosophila melanogaster). Compared to the KK chambers, they feature an extended temperature and humidity range and can be used for tests of electronics, plastic or building materials.
The steam humidifier (steam generator) is a closed boiler that produces steam with higher pressure than atmospheric. The heat required to produce steam is obtained by a heater placed in a boiler. Much higher temperature and humidity range is used in more applications in comparison to KK units.
