Insect Rearing Chambers Detroit, MI

Darwin Chambers designs, manufactures and installs Insect Rearing Chambers in Detroit, MI.

Insect Rearing Chambers Detroit, MI. When studying or working with drosophila (fruit flies), mosquitos, and other insects, you need access to precise and reliable insect rearing chambers in Detroit, MI that provide an environment specifically meant for breeding, rearing, incubating, and observing the insects you are working with. You need a dedicated insect rearing chamber that is designed specifically for insect work and goes beyond simple manipulation and measurement of light, temperature, and humidity provided by a standard environmental chamber.

Insect Rearing Chambers need further enhancements and industry-specific specifications to ensure the growth of specimen and the longevity of the room. Standard Walk-in Chambers and Environmental Chambers often do not meet these requirements due to the problematic conditions that can arise from the rearing of certain specimen. The insect rearing chambers designed and manufactured by Darwin Chambers are specifically designed and manufactured rearing chambers that protect and enhance the growth of specimen while also ensuring that the insect rearing chamber isn’t compromised by the specimen. To inquire about the Insect Rearing Chambers that we make available to Detroit, MI clients, contact our team at 314-534-3111 or online right away.

Insect Rearing Chambers Detroit, MI

Standard or general incubators or coolers that aren't specifically designed for the rearing of insects or other biological organisms will experience several issues. The acids inherent in the rearing of many specimens or their food will quickly eat away at a standard refrigeration evaporator. The corrosion is catalyzed by high humidity levels, as droplets of concentrated acid will accumulate on the cooling components. Other providers use large evaporator units that are more prone to experiencing leaks that can be costly and also require the replacement of expensive components, other than the evaporator itself, due to compromised oil (modern refrigeration oils are very hygroscopic) in the system. For example, if you have ever worked with Drosophila, you know that they bring propionic acid to the chamber that can destroy a conventional incubator in under 6 months.

This is clearly a major cause for concern. There are a number of other issues with standard incubators for insect use as well. Most incubators are designed for a standard audience and are not created with the unique characteristics of insect rearing in mind, and because of this are unsuited to the needs of an insect researcher or worker. Significant factors that are often overlooked include:

• Ability to easily shut off heating and cooling mechanisms in the event of a malfunction.
• Decontamination Ability with High Heat.
• Minimal Noise.
• Simple to Program.
• Durability and resistance to corrosion and other atmospheric challenges.

Many of today's incubator manufacturers still rely on outdated technology, but biological testing almost never tests anything lower than 15 degrees Celsius. In most cases, dropping below that temperature can actually cause damage to the insect specimen and subsequent research.

Darwin Chambers' answer for researchers looking for the best insect rearing chamber is a multi-part approach:

• Epoxy coated air handlesa material which acheives long-term resistance against corrosion.
• Removing the refrigerant from the room's interior. After almost a decade after turning our back on straight refrigerant in mild heat load applications, we are glad we did. Our Precision Fluid Temperature Control Unit, or PFTCU, is an excellent solution for insect rearing rooms in Detroit, MI. Low pressures, ease of repair, and reliability are just some of the reasons we love it. Find out more on our technologies page.
• We firmly believe in our UV sterilized ultrasonic humidification approach. It is exact. It generates very little heat, which requires a smaller compressor, which leads to lower energy usage. With extremely good temperature uniformity, our insect rearing chambers do not sacrifice quality.
• Proprietary Antimicrobial Coated door handles to reduce bacteria from growing and spreading.
• The low profile, 2" floor maximizes available space, improves the insulation performance of the room, and allows the room to easily satisfy A.D.A. requirements.
• A black embossed finish on the galvanized steel panels within the room is meant to mimic nighttime inside the chamber.

Standard controllers are non-proprietary and are exceptionally accurate and reliable. Our insect rearing chambers in Detroit, MI come with setpoints and alarms that are easy to operate. Chambers also come programmed with standard diurnal ramping/soaking/cycling of temperatures.

Reach-In Insect Chambers - the IN series

We boast the very first commercially manufactured large capacity thermoelectric-cooled insect rearing chamber, thousands of which are currently being used by researchers internationally. The models range in size from benchtop to three-door full length. With simple components, installation and maintenance require little effort.

Walk-In Insect Chambers

We construct our walk-in chambers to the unique dimensions and specifications necessary for use within your facility. In addition to the standard features that are a part of all of our insect rearing chambers of any size, there are other characteristics to consider when contemplating our insect rearing rooms for use in Detroit, MI.

Because of the capacity and nature of large walk-in chambers such as our insect rearing chamber rooms, we create all of our walk-in rooms with some additional features, including:

• Accessibility: we make sure to make every chamber we produce is ADA compliant
• Safety: all of our walk-in chambers are fitted with safety considerations such as an easy-to-pull and readily visible emergency personnel pull cord alarm
• Efficiency: because of the size of a typical insect rearing room, consistent and reliable refrigeration can be difficult. However, we use a cooling technology called Precision Fluid Temperature Control Unit, or PFTCU, which is much more affordable and energy efficient than comparable competitor systems
• Durability: we understand that insect rearing walk-in chambers are an enormous investment and have applied solutions such as epoxy coating on functional components to encourage longevity of the chamber and protect against corrosion and other destructive events

Low-Temperature Insect Rearing Chambers - INR Series

Low-temperature insect rearing chambers reach lower temperatures than our other models and have advanced heat removal abilities. These models are appropriate for use in cases where ambient conditions are extreme or difficult to control or when there is a life heat load. Research that necessitates rapid open door recovery times is best done using a low temp chamber.

Below is an expansive list of the Controlled Environmental Chambers we design, build, and install. If you have further inquiries, we can be reached at 314-534-3111 or by filling out the form on this page.

We also offer additional products and services, including:
