Microaerophilic Workstation

With a working capacity of 500 plates, the Concept 400M incorporates all of the familiar and proven features of the Concept 400, but it is tailored to interface with the Ruskinn Gas Mixing System.

The Gas Mixing System provides accurate control over oxygen (0.1% - 20% in 0.1% increments), carbon dioxide (0% - 12% in 1% increments) and hydrogen (0% - 10% in 1% increments) components of the mix with integral oxygen sensor and calibration port.

The Concept 400M more than meets the needs of most hospital and anaerobic microbiology laboratories. Providing a perfect combination of capacity, speed and innovation, the Concept 400M delivers simple sophistication and new levels of comfort and convenience.

The Concept 400M provides microbiologists with high quality incubation conditions combined with ease of use. Taking just 45 seconds to transfer up to 45 plates this rapid interlock ensure that you continue to guarantee the best isolation rates for your cultures. The workstation includes a host of innovative features to provide an affordable and convenient system for microaerophilic incubation.
