Product Description
Many protocols need more than "warm": they call for sub-ambient incubation, cold storage, freezing, and precise ramping between temperatures. The Benchmark Scientific H2206-120 myTemp HC Heating and Cooling Incubator handles all of it in one 120 liter chamber. With a range of -10°C to 60°C, it covers below-zero holds, 4°C cold storage, 20–30°C BOD-style incubation, and 37°C culture work, all with ±0.2°C accuracy and stability.
Advanced mechanical convection keeps conditions uniform to ±0.5°C at 22°C and ±1°C at 4°C. You can store up to 20 programs of 20 steps each and repeat any program up to 99 times, which makes temperature cycling, stability testing, and multi-stage protocols easy to automate. The large full-color display shows real-time temperature graphs, and onboard memory logs data for your records. Customizable security settings keep programs from being changed. A built-in timer runs from 1 minute to 100 hours, or continuously.
The stainless steel chamber includes interior lighting, a large viewing window for checking samples without opening the door, and an access port for sensor probes or cables. Cooling uses R290, a natural refrigerant with low global warming potential. Two shelves are included, and the chamber holds up to 10.

WHY CHOOSE A HEATING AND COOLING INCUBATOR?
Heating-Only Incubator: Can only hold temperatures above room temperature, typically ambient +5°C and up
Heating and Cooling Incubator: Holds any setpoint from -10°C to 60°C, regardless of room temperature. That makes it essential for BOD testing, insect and plant studies, stability testing, and any protocol at or below ambient.
APPLICATIONS
- BOD (biochemical oxygen demand) incubation
- Microbiology at 20–30°C and refrigerated temperatures
- Stability and shelf-life testing
- Temperature cycling and multi-step protocols
- Insect, plant, and environmental studies
- Sample freezing, cold storage, and drying
- Life science, R&D, and industrial laboratories
