BINDER

BINDER temperature, climate and environmental simulation chambers are the centrepieces of modern laboratories. Designed to meet the highest demands in scientific and industrial fields, they enable the accurate simulation of biological, chemical, and physical environmental conditions.

BINDER temperature, climate and environmental simulation chambers are the centrepieces of modern laboratories. Designed to meet the highest demands in scientific and industrial fields, they enable the accurate simulation of biological, chemical, and physical environmental conditions. With cutting-edge technology and pioneering innovations, BINDER develops products that provide real added value for the customer.

BINDER has developed into the foremost global specialist in the serial production of premium quality simulation chambers for scientific and industrial laboratories.

BINDER apply their expertise and feel for the requirements of dynamic, day-to-day work in research facilities to support the widest range of projects and processes in an optimum way. After all, their aim is nothing less than making a contribution to the health, quality of life, and safety of people.

Every CO₂ incubator from BINDER guarantees optimum, reproducible growth conditions for cell cultures. The new silicone-jacket heating system and Permadry technology eliminate the risk of condensation. With 180 °C hot air sterilisation, bacteria and spores can be reliably killed as necessary.

The unique, seamless inner chamber without obstructive fixtures makes cleaning very simple. Important advantages for uniformly good cell and tissue cultivation offered by Series CB and CB-S CO₂ incubators.

The completely redesigned Avantgarde.Line incubators with natural convection or forced convection are now the perfect solution when it comes to meeting growth and incubation requirements. With their exceptional efficiency and perfect temperature accuracy thanks to the very latest APT.line™ technology, this new generation of incubators has real appeal.

BINDER cooling incubators are gentle on samples and provide high-quality performance. Every KB Series cooling incubator thus makes safe, reproducible incubation possible, even at high ambient temperatures. Together with the efficient weekly program function, a cooling incubator from BINDER is truly versatile in laboratory work with microorganisms.

The KT Series combines exceptional performance with low energy consumption. Additionally, every BINDER cooling incubator offers true added value with its exemplary environmental sustainability.

Homogeneous light in combination with a constant temperature and humidity is necessary to achieve ideal growth in plants or other organisms. A BINDER humidity chamber offers all this. This is how KBW Series growth chambers create ideal conditions for the culture using light and temperature. The KBWF series also offers a system for humidity regulation.

The APT.line™ preheating chamber from BINDER, in connection with fast-reacting humidity regulation, highly effective cooling and uniform light distribution, ensures natural growth conditions.

The spotlight is on environmentally-friendly design in the new BINDER ultra low temperature freezer. This applies particularly to the best energy efficiency in its class and the lack of refrigerants that are harmful to the climate. A multi-layered safety concept allows users to mix and match elements to suit any environment. With practical unit sizes appropriate, sophisticated options and practical accessories, users have everything they need for reliable long-term storage of highly sensitive samples.

BINDER drying chambers with natural convection or forced convection are renowned for their high quality and reliability. Thanks to their extensive redevelopment, these all-rounders are now even more firmly focused on addressing the requirements involved in drying or heating samples. What’s more, in addition to the best energy efficiency on the market and convenient operation, the latest APT.line™ technology offers outstanding temperature accuracy to give this new generation of incubators real appeal.

A BINDER safety drying chamber with a silicone- and dust-free inner chamber and a symmetrical air flow provides the perfect environment for standard-compliant drying of paints and coating materials containing solvents.

The FDL Series guarantees short drying time with high temperature accuracy and defined ventilation. Every BINDER heating oven thus represents the basis for the highest-quality results and reproducible tests in the fields of chemistry and surface technology. The replaceable fresh air cartridges are easy to change and ensure constant fresh air quality.

Both BINDER vacuum drying chamber models enable effective drying without residue or damaging the material being dried. With their proven technological features, the excellently address the strict requirements of industrial and scientific laboratories.

Samples and similar materials incorporating flammable and non-flammable solvents can be dried, depending on the individual use. The chambers use a unique safety design that, together with accustomed outstanding performance, sets the bar in terms of quality and safety.

BINDER climatic chambers stand out when testing material behaviours under constant temperature and humidity conditions.

A climatic chamber of the KBF P and KBF LQC Series also offers ICH-compliant illumination for standard-compliant long-term tests. In combination with the innovative Light Quantum Control (LQC), they offer a complete reliable solution for photostability testing in one chamber.

Wide temperature and humidity ranges can be achieved with KMF Series chambers—ideal for complex stress tests at, for instance, 85 °C and 85 % RH.

BINDER environmental chambers are perfectly suited to material testing under dynamic conditions. The standard rapid alternation speeds of around 5 K/min make standard-compliant testing possible.

An environmental simulation chamber of the MK and MKT Series is suitable for complex temperature profiles in the range of -40 °C or -70 °C to 180 °C.

MKF and MKFT Series of dynamic climate chambers not only make material testing in this temperature range possible, but can also regulate humidity in the range of 10 % to 98 % RH.

Battery test chambers from BINDER are suitable for tests performed on lithium-ion cells and modules. Handling lithium-ion batteries can present a variety of potential hazards. System operators need to evaluate the level of risk and counteract it using an appropriate safety concept.
The LIT MK series of temperature test chambers from BINDER provides a controllable temperature range of -40 °C to +110 °C. The units come with extensive safety equipment as standard so that tests on lithium-ion cells can be performed at an anticipated EUCAR hazard level of 6.

Always expandable, divisible and network compatible, Rees Scientific systems provide you with alarm notification, programming flexibility, rich documentation and a host of other features.

Rees Scientific set the standard for validation and compliance having partnered with many of the fortune 50 international Pharmaceutical companies whose products have become household names.

Hospital

You all have critical equipment (refrigerators, freezers, incubators and more) that need to be monitored and maintained. Each department’s staff spends a considerable portion of their day recording temperature, humidity, pressure and flow readings. Automating environmental monitoring increases accuracy, provides early warnings to address problems before they occur, maintains regulatory compliance, and allows staff to focus on other critical tasks.

Repositories

Repositories often handle millions of specimens including cell banks, tissue, sera, plasma, slides and nucleic acids. Freezer alarms, on- and off-site notification, documentation and validation are critical components of a successful repository. As with most businesses, repositories are seeking a competitive edge when bidding on large contracts. Having Rees Scientific as a partner can help your organisation complete its mission statement and provide quality storage for your clients’ valuable and often irreplaceable specimens.

Forensic Labs

Requirements for storage, monitoring, and data collection of DNA evidence has increased in the last decade.
