Based on the Hatchmaker still air manual incubator/hatcher, the Hatchmaker R is a dedicated reptile incubator.
Temperature control is provided by Brinsea's proven proportional electronic system which gives very accurate and stable control unaffected by voltage variations and changes in barometric pressure.
Temperature adjustment is made by turning an externally mounted spindle. This multi-turn device allows very fine adjustment of temperature and is not easily turned accidentally.
Each machine is moulded from integrally skinned structural polyurethane which has a core of thermal insulation and hard, durable, impervious surfaces making it readily washable and tough enough to withstand scrubbing.
Polyurethane is amongst the toughest of plastics and must not be confused with cheap, fragile alternatives like expanded polystyrene. The excellent thermal properties of polyurethane foam result in low heat losses and low power consumption.
The removable purpose designed reptile egg chamber which locates within the incubator base is almost sealed and allows the eggs to be maintained at virtually 100% humidity. It is designed so that condensation will not form on the inside of the lid of the chamber while the incubator is in use preventing drips falling on the incubating eggs.
Oxygen supply to the chamber is regulated by a simple vent control.
The inner chamber is formed from clear plastic and is easily cleaned.
The incubation thermometer fits into the lid of the inner chamber and can be viewed through the incubator window without disturbing the eggs.
The natural convection system in this specially adapted Brinsea still air incubator provides ideal conditions for hatching reptiles and is flexible and easy to use.
