Insect Rearing Chambers Raleigh, NC

Darwin Chambers offers state-of-the-art Insect Rearing Chambers in Raleigh, NC.

Insect Rearing Chambers Raleigh, NC. When studying or working with drosophila (fruit flies), mosquitos, and other insects, you need access to precise and reliable insect rearing chambers in Raleigh, NC 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 to protect and enhance the growth of specimen while also adhering to standards required to ensure the maintainability of the room. To find out more about the Insect Rearing Chambers that we make available to Raleigh, NC clients, contact our team at 314-534-3111 or online now.

Insect Rearing Chambers Raleigh, NC

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 collect 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. Anyone familiar with Drosophila storage, for example, will realize that they bring propionic acid to the chamber that can destroy a conventional incubator in under 6 months.

The scenario stated above is a clear concern. However, it is not the only issue. The vast majority of incubators are produced for a standard audience and don't require the protections that are needed for insect rearing, and because of this are not ideal for the needs of an insect researcher or worker. Details that are often overlooked include:

• Ability to easily shut off heating and cooling mechanisms in the event of an emergency.
• Decontamination Ability with High Heat.
• Quiet operation.
• Easy programming and use.
• Overall reliability in a corrosive atmosphere, and many others.

Many of today's incubator manufacturers are still operating on dated technology, but the truth is much biological research is never done at temperatures below 15 degrees Celsius. In most cases, dropping below that temperature can actually cause damage to the organisms and subsequent research.

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

• Epoxy coated air handles. This coating is the most resistant against long term 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, works out very well in insect rearing rooms in Raleigh, NC. This method of cooling boasts low pressure, easy maintenance, and reliability. Ge more details on our technologies page.
• We firmly believe in our UV sterilized ultrasonic humidification approach. It is precise. 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 discourage bacteria from growing and spreading.
• The low profile, 2" floor maximizes available space, improves the insulation performance of the room, and allows minimal ramp requirements to satisfy A.D.A. requirements.
• A black embossed finish on the galvanized steel panels within the room is meant to mimic nighttime within the chamber.

Standard controllers are non-proprietary and are exceptionally precise. The setpoints and alarms on our insect rearing chambers in Raleigh, NC are easy to set. Diurnal ramping/soaking/cycling of temperatures is standard.

Reach-In Insect Chambers - the IN series

We are proud to be the makers of the premiere commercially produced large capacity thermoelectric-cooled insect rearing chamber. There are currently thousands in use by researchers throughout the world. The models range in size from benchtop to three-door full length. With simple components, installation and maintenance are incredibly easy.

Walk-In Insect Chambers

We can customize our walk-in chambers to the custom dimensions and specifications needed to work in 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 features to think about when contemplating our insect rearing rooms for use in Raleigh, NC.

Because of the size and nature of large walk-in chambers such as our insect rearing chamber rooms, we design 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: every walk-in chamber is complete 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 systems used by our competitors
• Durability: we understand that insect rearing walk-in chambers are an enormous investment and have applied solutions like an epoxy coating to ensure that the parts are protected against corrosion and last as long as possible

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. Our low temp models are best for cases where ambient conditions are extreme or difficult to control or when there is a life heat load. They are also the best choice for researchers whose work requires rapid open door recovery times.

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.
