Insect Rearing Chambers Los Angeles, CA

Darwin Chambers designs, manufactures and installs Insect Rearing Chambers in Los Angeles, CA.

Insect Rearing Chambers Los Angeles, CA. When studying or working with drosophila (fruit flies), mosquitos, and other insects, you need access to precise and reliable insect rearing chambers in Los Angeles, CA 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 that the room can properly grow the specimen without being compromised by the specimen or methods used to procure it. Chambers built for more traditional purposes often struggle with the procurement of insects as their materials and processes aren’t properly designed to be maintained under adverse conditions that can arise with the rearing of insects. The insect rearing chambers designed and manufactured by Darwin Chambers are specifically designed and manufactured to protect and enhance the growth of specimen while also ensuring that the insect rearing chamber isn’t compromised by the specimen.

Walk-in Incubators or Coolers that aren't specifically designed for the rearing of insects or other biological organisms will experience several issues. The acids that are commonly produced by the rearing of insects or the food they eat 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 chamber manufacturers 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 render a new, conventional incubator useless in under 6 months.

That is one obvious concern. However, it is not the only issue. Most incubators are designed for a standard audience and disregard the specific needs and challenges of an insect rearing environment, and because of this are unsuited to insect rearing applications. Significant factors are often ignored, including:

• Ability to shut down heating and cooling mechanisms in a malfunction.
• High-heat decontamination.
• Quiet operation.
• Easy programming and use.
• Overall reliability in a corrosive atmosphere, and many others.

Many incubators that are available on the market today are still operating on outdated technology, but the truth is much biological research is never done anything lower than 15 degrees Celsius. In most cases, dropping below that temperature can actually be a liability to the insect specimen and related research.

For anyone looking for the best insect rearing chamber in Los Angeles, CA, we have a multi-fold approach:

• Epoxy coated air handlesa material which acheives long-term resistance against corrosion.
• Removing the refrigerant from the room's interior. We have not used straight refrigerant in mild heat load applications in a decade, and for good reason. Our Precision Fluid Temperature Control Unit, or PFTCU, works out very well in insect rearing rooms in Los Angeles, CA. 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. This system generates minimal heat and thus requires a smaller compressor and consumes less energy. On top of all this, our insect rearing chambers are still able to provide very precise, excellent temperature uniformity.
• Exclusive Antimicrobial Coated door handles to discourage the spread of bacteria and pathogens.
• The low profile, 2" floor maximizes available space, improves the insulation performance of the room, and allows the room to easily meet A.D.A. requirements.
• A black embossed finish on the galvanized steel panels within the room is meant to emulate nighttime within the chamber.

Standard controllers are non-proprietary and are extremely well-controlled. Our insect rearing chambers in Los Angeles, CA come with setpoints and alarms that are easy to operate. Diurnal ramping/soaking/cycling of temperatures is standard.
