Temperature Variation: +/-0.5°C @ 4°C to 44°C with lights off. The published temperature variation is derived from the maximum deviation of the thermocouple located nearest the chamber geometric center during the entire test period. (i.e. 25.0°C min and 26.0°C max divided by two would be a variation of +/-0.5°C).Temperature Uniformity:*+/-1°C @ 10°C to 44°C with all lights on.+/-1°C @ 4°C to 44°C with all lights off. The published temperature uniformity is derived from the maximum deviation of 3 thermocouples placed on a horizontal plane, having the thermocouples evenly spaced diagonally across the shelf from the left and right inner wall, and the middle sensor placed in the approximate geometric center of the shelf.Humidity Variation:+/-5% @ 5°C to 60°C and RH within performance graph.

Dehumidification is achieved by the use of a separate dehumidification latent coil. Both systems are precisely controlled by the programmable logic microprocessor. The humidity controller utilizes a dry capacitance type sensor for rapid response to humidity changes with exceptional accuracy. The humidifier requires a water source with low mineral content; i.e., resistance of 0.05 - 1.0 megohm and a pressure of 10 – 100 psi. Reverse osmosis treated water is recommended. The water supply connection requires 1/4” plastic or copper tubing.Performance tested in unlighted chamber.*Performance data is based on 23°C, 50% RH ambient conditions, type T-24 Ga. thermocouples with 1.0oz. brass slugs attached and no product in the chamber. Data may vary if; ambient conditions change, product load is added, or other changes cause interference to chamber airflow.Typical Temperature/Humidity OperationLights OffRelative Humidity %Degrees CelsiusSCIENTIFICRevision Date: 02/13©2013 NOR-LAKE, INC.Printed in the U.S.A.Part Number: 142963SPECIFICATIONSModels without HumidificationNSLC331WSW/0PGNSLC331WSW/0ARNSLC331WSW/0IN1NSLC331WSW/0IN2NSLC331WSW/0GMModels with HumidificationNSLC331WSW/0PGHNSLC331WSW/0ARHNSLC331WSW/0IN1HNSLC331WSW/0IN2HNSLC331WSW/0GMHCrated Height (in) (cm) 92” (234)Crated Width (in) (cm) 37” (94)Crated Depth (in) (cm) 38” (96)Crated Weight (lbs) (kg) 439 (200)Interior Height (in) (cm) 67” (170)Interior Width (in) (cm) 27-3/4” (70)Interior Depth (in) (cm) 31” (78)Overall Height (in) (cm) 88-3/8” (224)Overall Width (in) (cm) 31-3/4” (80)Overall Depth (in) (cm) 35-7/8” (91)Gross Cubage (ft.3) (l) 33.1 (935)Shelf Area (Per) up to 15.75 sq. ft.Number of Casters 4 (2 locking)Condensing Unit Size 1/3HPRefrigerant R-134aMaximum Fuse Size 20 AMPSTotal Amp Draw 13.6Voltage 120V, 60HZSpecifications subject to change without notice.CONTROL SYSTEM: A fully programmable microprocessor provides a user interface through a liquid crystal alphanumeric display.

The standard control includes: Fully programmable ramp soak functions, product and air temperature read out, alarm logging, system mode heating / cooling indicator, high / low audible / visual alarms, real time clock, power failure alarm, sensor failure alarms, user password entry system. CONDITIONING SYSTEM: Precision control provided by the uniform distribution of air through a ceiling plenum. The plenum delivers conditioned air evenly through out the chamber providing maximum uniformity and efficiency. A heavy duty refrigeration system provides rapid removal of heat caused by door openings or product load. The system accurately delivers cooling based on demand and modulates to provide precision control. The system utilizes environmentally safe non-toxic CFC free refrigerant, with air-cooled, hermetically sealed compressor backed by a 5 year warranty. The system includes a modulated expansion valve system to optimize capacity and efficiency. Heating is provided by an incoloy tube heater. CONSTRUCTION: Heavy duty double wall construction. Exterior finish of heavy gauge steel painted with scratch resistant powder coat. Interior finish is stainless steel. Complete cabinet and door are insulated and sealed with 100% UL Class 1 rigid polyurethane foam insulation. The foamed-in-place insulation provides low heat transfer, improved cabinet performance and prohibits moisture from migrating into the cabinet walls. Hardware includes: Heavy duty self closing door hinges, full length stainless steel pull handle, full peripheral high temperature door gasket providing a tight seal. Key lock door and 3” casters for ease of rolling. Complete perimeter anti-condensate door heater wire thermostatically controlled for energy savings.NOR-LAKE® SCIENTIFIC MODELSNSLC331WSW/0PG NSLC331WSW/0AR NSLC331WSW/0IN1 NSLC331WSW/0IN2 NSLC331WSW/0GM NSLC331WSW/0PGH NSLC331WSW/0ARH NSLC331WSW/0IN1H NSLC331WSW/0IN2H NSLC331WSW/0GMH PLANT GROWTH ARABIDOPSIS TISSUE CULTURE INCUBATOR GERMINATOR TEMPERATURE RANGE 10° to 44° C 10° to 44° C 10° to 44° C 10° to 44° C 10° to 44° CLIGHT INTENSITY 600 µ mole/M²/sec 250 µ mole/M²/secVariable from 45 to 145 µ mole/M²/secVariable from 45 to 190 µ mole/M²/sec50 µ mole/M²/secTIERS 1 tier 2 tier 4 tier 4 tier 5 tier Max Growth/Sample Height Equally Spaced 54 1/2” 25 1/2” 11 1/2” 11 1/2” 7 1/2” Floor/Shelf Square Feet (Models Without Humidity)* 4.70 ft²3.94 ft² per shelf 4.7 ft² floor8.64 total3.94 ft² per shelf 15.76 ft²3.94 ft² per shelf 15.76 ft²3.94 ft² per shelf 19.7 ft²*Models with humidity (H) suffix reduce usable internal floor space by 1.4 ft²LIGHT INTENSITY µ mole/M²/sec actual measured 6” from majority bulb @ 27°C@ 100% WITH SIDE LIGHTS600 µ mole/M²/sec 190 µ mole/M²/sec 50 µ mole/M²/sec LIGHT INTENSITY µ mole/M²/sec actual measured 6” from majority bulb @ 27°C @ 100%554 µ mole/M²/sec 250 µ mole/M²/sec 145 µ mole/M²/sec 145 µ mole/M²/sec LIGHT INTENSITY µ mole/M²/sec actual measured 6” from majority bulb @ 27°C @ 75%450 µ mole/M²/sec 197 µ mole/M²/sec 113 µ mole/M²/sec 113 µ mole/M²/sec LIGHT INTENSITY µ mole/M²/sec actual measured 6” from majority bulb @ 27°C @ 50%305 µ mole/M²/sec 135 µ mole/M²/sec 79 µ mole/M²/sec 79 µ mole/M²/sec LIGHT INTENSITY µ mole/M²/sec actual measured 6” from majority bulb @ 27°C @ 25%145 µ mole/M²/sec 60 µ mole/M²/sec 45 µ mole/M²/sec 45 µ mole/M²/sec *Note: Light measurement may vary with temperature and bulb age.Lighted chamber Product SPecificatioNSNor-Lake, Inc.Registered to ISO 9001:2008File No. 10001816Voltage ModelVoltage DescriptionNEMA PlugNEMA Receptacle/0 115V, 1PH, 60HZ 5-20P 5-20R
