Product Overview

Memmert Peltier-Cooled Incubator, IPPeco Series

Refrigerant-free cooled incubation from 0 °C to +70 °C, across nine chamber sizes from 32 to 2 140 litres

The Memmert IPPeco is a range of Peltier-cooled incubators for microbiological and food science applications requiring precise temperature control both above and below room temperature. Operating without a compressor or refrigerant, the series covers a temperature range of 0 °C to +70 °C across nine chamber sizes from 32 to 2 140 litres.

Advanced Peltier Technology integrates fans directly into the Peltier elements, enabling rapid energy transfer and tight temperature homogeneity across the working chamber. The interior is sealed from the surroundings; condensation during cooling occurs on the Peltier element outside the working chamber rather than inside, reducing the risk of sample drying and protecting cultures from condensate exposure. The absence of a compressor means the IPPeco operates with low vibration and lower noise than equivalent refrigerant-cooled incubators, making it well suited to vibration-sensitive biological samples.

Each size is available as a base model with SingleDISPLAY ControlCOCKPIT, or as a "plus" variant with TwinDISPLAY, which supports temperature ramp programming and documentation via AtmoCONTROL software.

  • Temperature range: 0–+70 °C
  • Available volumes: 32–2 140 L
  • 9 sizes: 18 model variants
  • No compressor: Advanced Peltier Technology

Key Features

  • Advanced Peltier Technology: Peltier-based heating and cooling with no compressor and no refrigerant. Fans integrated into the Peltier elements support rapid energy transfer and optimum temperature distribution throughout the chamber.
  • Condensation-free working chamber: The interior is sealed from the surroundings. Condensation during cooling forms on the Peltier element outside the chamber, protecting samples from condensate and minimising drying risk.
  • Double doors, standard: Fully insulated stainless steel outer door and wide-area interior glass door on all models. Limits contamination and temperature fluctuation during access while allowing visual inspection of the chamber load.
  • Low vibration and low noise: The compressor-free design delivers lower vibration and quieter operation than refrigerant-cooled alternatives, an advantage for vibration-sensitive biological samples and shared laboratory environments.
  • SingleDISPLAY and TwinDISPLAY variants: Base models use SingleDISPLAY ControlCOCKPIT for straightforward operation. TwinDISPLAY ("plus") models add temperature ramp programming and full documentation via AtmoCONTROL software with integrated data logger.
  • Stainless steel construction: High-quality, corrosion-resistant stainless steel used almost exclusively for the working chamber and housing, supporting easy cleaning and long service life.
  • Precise temperature homogeneity: Fine Peltier control with minimal fluctuations across the full 0 °C to +70 °C working range ensures consistent conditions throughout the chamber, even when fully loaded.
  • Space-efficient footprint: The compressor-free design reduces the overall unit footprint compared to refrigerant-cooled incubators of equivalent capacity, freeing bench and floor space in the laboratory.
