REMI RHI-80 Hot Air Incubator – 80 Litre Forced Air Convection Laboratory Incubator

The REMI RHI-80 Hot Air Incubator is an 80-litre benchtop heating incubator from REMI's RHI series, built to hold laboratory samples at a stable incubation temperature from room temperature +5 °C up to 65 °C. It suits routine microbiology, biotechnology and pharmaceutical QC work where cultures, media and samples need a consistent, repeatable thermal environment.

Heating is by forced air convection, which circulates warm air through the chamber to reduce hot and cold spots across both shelves. A microprocessor controller holds temperature stability at ±0.5 °C with a 0.1 °C display resolution, and includes over-temperature and temperature-difference alarms plus a self-check function that helps identify faults quickly.

The chamber is made of polished stainless steel with rounded corners for easy cleaning, and a full inner glass door lets operators check samples without disturbing the chamber temperature. Two shelves are supplied and the spacing between them is adjustable to fit flasks, Petri dish stacks and racks of different heights.

With internal dimensions of 500 × 400 × 400 mm and a power draw of 350 W on a standard 220–240 V single-phase supply, the RHI-80 is a practical choice for laboratories that need more capacity than a 50-litre unit without moving to a floor-standing incubator. For smaller loads, the RHI-50 (50 litres) is available in the same series.

Core Features & User Benefits

The RHI-80 combines forced air circulation with microprocessor control to give laboratories stable, uniform incubation in a compact benchtop footprint.

• Forced Air Convection Heating Circulating air spreads heat evenly through the chamber, helping samples on both shelves see the same incubation conditions.
• Microprocessor Temperature Control Set and hold temperature from RT +5 °C to 65 °C with ±0.5 °C stability and 0.1 °C display resolution.
• Built-in Safety Alarms Over-temperature and temperature-difference alarms alert the operator before samples are compromised.
• Self-Check Function The controller's self-diagnosis makes it easier to identify problems during routine operation.
• Easy-Clean Stainless Steel Chamber Polished stainless steel interior with rounded corners supports quick cleaning and good laboratory hygiene.
• Full Inner Glass Door Check samples visually without opening the chamber and losing temperature.
• Adjustable Shelf Spacing Two shelves with adjustable spacing accommodate flasks, plates and racks of different heights.
