Small,
reliable, easy to use -
Careful design and the use of modern materials
and manufacturing techniques has enabled this
small high quality incubator to be available at
a very reasonable price.
.
.
The
combination of 'Omnitherm' heating, advanced temperature
control and high quality construction results
in a reliable and extremely easy to use incubator.
.
The Omnitherm principle ensures that the eggs
are gently warmed by the printed element which
encircles the egg chamber and results in stable,
even temperature throughout the enclosure without
the need for a fan.
.
Different egg sizes, including goose eggs, can
be accommodated by adjusting the width of the
egg channel with the dividers provided. The eggs
are accessed by drawing out the egg tray from
one end.
The smaller the incubator, the harder to keep
the temperature steady. Brinsea's proven
Omnitherm™
heating technology is the solution, providing
all round heating and visibility at the same time.
Egg turning is achieved, as with all models in
the Octagon range, by rotating the whole cabinet.
This feature means that manual turning is easy
and does not involve opening the enclosure or
touching the eggs. Automatic turning is an option
with the separate Autoturn cradle which turns
the incubator twice per hour. The external turning
system keeps all moving parts outside the incubator
away from moisture and dust leaving the enclosure
easier to clean. The incubator easily lifts clear
of the cradle allowing it to stand level for hatching.
The
advanced, proportional electronic temperature
control is similar to that used across the Brinsea
range and is the result of many years of refinement.
The temperature is set on a twenty turn adjuster
using a small screwdriver from outside the incubator.
An indicator light displays the status of the
temperature control.
Humidity
is provided by two water trays accessible by partially
withdrawing the egg tray.
A
high quality incubation thermometer, individually
calibrated on the glass for accuracy, is provided
with each incubator.
