The PortaTherm Incubator is a revolutionary, portable solution designed for reliable, low-cost incubation of water samples in remote or off-grid locations. This innovative incubator operates without electricity, utilizing phase-change materials to maintain a stable temperature of 37°C for up to 4 days. The PortaTherm™ is ideal for use in environments where laboratory facilities and power sources are not available, making it an essential tool for field research, medical testing, and other applications requiring precise temperature control.
The incubator works by heating a special phase-change material in a water bath until it melts, then cooling it until the first signs of cloudiness appear, signaling that the material is ready. Once prepared, the incubator can be placed in an insulated container, maintaining a consistent temperature for an extended period without the need for external power. With its simple design and easy setup, the PortaTherm Incubator provides an efficient and reliable solution for incubating samples under challenging conditions.
