Overview

ScanStation 100 is a unit centralizing incubation, detection and counting of Petri dishes. Colonies are detected & counted as soon as they appear. Follow the growth curve of the colonies. ScanStation 100 can accomodate up to 100 Petri dishes.

  • Capacity: up to 100 Petri dishes
  • Counting on pour plate, surface, Spiral, filtration membranes
  • Petri dish sizes: Ø 55 to 65 mm, Ø 90 mm
  • Accuracy of incubation temperature: ± 1°C
  • Reading time in between each dish: 30 min or 1 h
 

Real-time bacterial growth

From the beginning of the incubation, the 100 Petri dishes are photographed every 30 min / 1 hour. Colonies are detected and counted as soon as they appear. Discover their bacterial growth hour by hour and get anticipated results.

 

An incubator of 100 Petri dishes

ScanStation 100 is composed of a rotating storage carousel with a 100 Petri dishes capacity. The 100 Petri dishes are processed simultaneously in this thermoregulated incubator with Peltier module ± 1°C.

 

Central screen

Ergonomics optimized for your laboratory

The central screen reduces the ScanStation’s side space requirement. The linear space required is reduced from 245 cm to 175 cm compared to a ScanStation with a side screen and keyboard support. This is an attractive option for our customers looking to couple multiple ScanStations in their lab. This accessory is available on all ScanStation range: ScanStation 100, ScanStation 200 and ScanStation 300.

 

Removable petals

Easy to clean and disinfect

To facilitate access to the bottom of the carousel, the 5-petal blocks removable can be removed by pulling on it, using a magnetic connection, so that the surface below the carousel can be cleaned easily. This makes 100% of the ScanStation floor area easily accessible and cleanable. This new feature is standard on the entire ScanStation range: ScanStation 100 , ScanStation 200 and ScanStation 300.
