C02 Incubator Monitoring

Independent verification of incubator performance for any make and model, protecting cell cultures with accurate and detailed incubator status.‍

Service Insight's 4-in-1 incubator monitor provides independent verification using a standalone CO₂ probe and wireless door sensors that function regardless of the incubator's make or model. The CO₂ probe is separate from the incubator’s problem and works with any make or model. This approach is simple, always accurate, reliable long-term, and provides actionable context when needed.

Core Benefits

Key Benefits

Independent 

Measure actual conditions, not controller output

Service Insight uses a dedicated CO₂ probe to verify actual conditions inside the incubator chamber—completely independent of the incubator's built-in sensors.

Learn More

Effortless

No cables, no IT involvement, no disruption

Installation takes seconds: open the incubator door, place the wireless monitor on any shelf, close the door. With 10-year battery life.

Frequently Asked questions

FAQ.

Why do I need independent monitoring if my incubator already has built-in sensors?

Built-in sensors drift over time. Independent monitoring uses a separate CO₂ probe to verify actual conditions, catching discrepancies before they impact your research.

How difficult is installation and will it disrupt my research?

Installation takes seconds: open the door, place the monitor on any shelf, close the door. No cables, no IT. 10-year battery life.

Will this work with my specific incubator make and model?

Yes. Works with any make or model—Thermo Fisher, Eppendorf, NuAire, Binder, PHC, and others. No integration required.

How does door sensor correlation help with after-hours alarms?

Correlated door sensors track access events. When an alarm fires, see recent door activity to determine if it's recovering naturally or a genuine issue.
