Product description
KB 1060 cooling incubators are laboratory units for controlled incubation of microorganisms and temperature-sensitive samples. They provide precise temperature control across a wide range, include a dry hot-air disinfection routine and support simple programming for weekend operation. The new KB generation offers up to 40% lower energy consumption compared with the previous model.
