We understand your problems . . .

 You use anaerobic jars but know that a workstation would be more cost-effective and provide better results.

 You need an anaerobic workstation but your laboratory space is limited.

 You have a small satellite laboratory and find it hard to justify the cost of a workstation . . . and a Whitley DG250 Workstation is the answer.

Value:  Low capital outlay  Minimal running costs  Improved isolation rates  Single or dual gas operation

Our award-winning design team has created a workstation that provides both a generous working area and an incubation capacity of 240 x 90mm Petri dishes. This gives the DG250 workstation an impressive 33% more capacity than any other unit of comparable size. When used only as an incubator, as many as 400 x 90mm Petri dishes can be accommodated. Requiring just 810mm of bench width, the DG250 is perfect for laboratories where space is limited.

Efficiency: Unique 'rapid lock' manually-operated portholes allow both access for the operator's arms and the transfer of up to 20 x 90mm Petri dishes. For inexperienced users, our new automatic gas refill system for sleeves ensures the internal atmosphere is not compromised by the transfer of oxygen through the ports. Sleeves can be operated with nitrogen as a cost-saving option if desired. The fully automatic humidity control system does not require any user maintenance. The novel 'lift-off' facility - the whole top can be disengaged easily from the base - allows the addition and/or removal of bulk samples and equipment. You can clean the internal surfaces very easily as the flat floor will contain any spills and there are no gaps through which loops or bottle caps can fall. The optional single-plate entry system enables the user to rapidly introduce individual samples into the chamber-perfect for 'on-call' or emergency use.

Standard features:  'Rapid lock' portholes  Maintenance-free dehumidification  Anotox™ and Catalyst  Internal spotlight  Lift-off 'all-in all-out' facility  Audio/visual gas alarms  Latex-free sleeves Nitrogen to sleeves if desired  Single or dual porthole operation

Comfort: The 'rapid lock' porthole system allows exceptional ease of movement and incorporates our new, high-comfort latex-free sleeves and cuffs with no risk of allergic reaction. The entire top is transparent, giving the user excellent views of the working and incubation areas. In addition, an internal spotlight allows even the smallest colonies to be examined. An optional internal power socket enables the use of small laboratory instruments inside the chamber.

Service: All components are located at bench-height level, allowing easy access when servicing is required - and integrated handles mean the DG250 can be easily lifted and moved. Refillable sachets of Anotox™ (essential for maintaining ideal internal conditions and removing volatile fatty acids) and catalyst are included. Quality Manufactured from 10mm acrylic and annealed during fabrication, the DG250 offers maximum strength and durability.

Compact: Dimensions 810mm (32") x 760mm (30") x 635mm (25") (w x d x h) Weight 64kg (140lbs) instrument only 90kg (198lbs) including spares and export packaging.

Options:  Automatic sleeve gassing system  Single plate entry system  Internal power socket

Accessories:  Storage tray to attach underneath the shelf (maximum 2)  Adjustable height trolley  Plate tagging system
