Incubator
The FG Smart Incubator is a triple-walled incubator with very precise temperature control and is the best incubator for use in oil and gas industry laboratories. The advanced thermal controller of this device with unparalleled accuracy and unique HCT technology are the most important advantages of this device.
FG cooled incubator
The FG cooled incubator is equipped with HCT technology and isothermal heating in all parts of the chamber and thermal stability, which for the first time in Iran has brought isothermal heating in 27 parts of the chamber to the user. Another important advantage is temperature stability even in cooling mode, which is made possible by using NON-CUT technology.
Laboratory drying Oven
The 300°FG laboratory oven is a fixed equipment for oil and gas industry laboratories that provides unparalleled isothermality and uniform temperature in the internal chamber. The high accuracy of the controller for precise temperature control, considering the range of features and the temperature range from 15 degrees above ambient temperature (up to 300 degrees Celsius), is part of the features of this smart oven.
Shaker Incubator
FG incubator shaker with unique capabilities and smart digital board with a seven-inch LCD display, unique temperature accuracy with the help of HCT technology, use of unique CMT technology and the ability to connect the device to a circulator chiller to cool the chamber and use it as a shaker cooled incubators are one of the special advantages of these devices.
Furnace
The FG 1200 °C Furnace features an external body made of steel sheet coated with electrostatic powder paint, while the internal chamber is constructed from high-quality refractory bricks and castable refractory material. The heating elements are independently installed within the side walls using the CHP method, allowing for easy element replacement while effectively protecting the elements against corrosion and degradation, thereby ensuring long service life and reliable performance.
Stability test chamber
FG Stability Test Chambers are essential devices designed to create precise and controlled environmental conditions required for ICH stability testing. This series of temperature and humidity chambers is equipped with advanced features such as the DUAL SAFETY system, the unique HCT technology for exceptional temperature uniformity throughout the chamber, NON-CUT technology for continuous and stable operation, and the ANTIPOLAR system, ensuring highly reliable, accurate, and compliant performance for pharmaceutical stability studies.
