  • Temperature control accuracy ±0.5 °C, uniformity ±0.5 °C at 37 °C. Setting range 25–120 °C, display resolution 0.1 °C.
  • Timer, 0 min to 99 h 59 min — set it and walk away.
  • Interchangeable aluminium heating blocks — one block included. For self-contained indicator vials we supply the 1.5 mL / 2 mL block, with a well diameter of 11 mm and a well depth of 34.7 mm.

For biological indicator incubation
Intended for steam-cycle biological indicators — Geobacillus stearothermophilus self-contained vials to ISO 11138-3 — incubated between 55 and 60 °C with a 24-hour readout, and readable from 8 to 12 hours. The block accepts self-contained vials with a body diameter of 8 mm and a cap diameter of 10 mm.

What this unit does, and does not, do
The result is read visually on the indicator itself: the medium stays purple when the cycle passes and turns yellow on a failure. This unit is an incubator, not a reader — it does not interpret fluorescent or rapid-readout indicators, which require a fluorescence reader. It does not record or export data; temperature and time are shown on the LED display and are kept on your daily record sheet.

Frequently Asked Questions

What temperature do I incubate a biological indicator at?
Steam biological indicators are incubated in the 56-60 degrees C range. The HB120-S holds 25-120 degrees C with +/-0.5 degrees C accuracy, so the incubation temperature is set and held for the full 24-hour readout period.
Do I need a reader with this incubator?
No. Self-contained 24-hour biological indicators are read visually by colour change after incubation. A fluorescence reader is only needed if you use the 1-hour or 3-hour rapid-readout indicators.
Does this incubator record or export data?
No. It is a dry-block incubator: it holds the incubation temperature and does not log or export data. Sterilization records are kept on our free printable log sheets.
Will my existing self-contained BIs fit the block?
The block takes standard self-contained biological indicator ampoules. Tell us the brand and model you use and we will confirm the fit before you order.
Is this the 110-120 V North American build?
Yes. It is the 110-120 V, 50/60 Hz build (170 W) and is cTUVus certified for Canada and the United States.
The earlier incubator is gone - what replaced it?
This model replaced it. The DLAB HB120-S is the incubator we currently stock and ship; the earlier model is no longer available.
