The H3565-45-LCI is the IncuView Integrated Microscope Shelf for the 45 L SureTherm CO2 Incubator (H3565-45), sold. KEY DIFFERENTIATOR: integrates a microscope inside the CO2 incubator chamber. It enables live-cell imaging without removing samples from the controlled CO2 / temperature / humidity environment. Significant workflow advantage for time-lapse imaging and longitudinal cell-culture studies.
Voltage options: This accessory is also available for European voltage configurations of the parent equipment.

Why IncuView Integrated Microscope
In the traditional cell-culture imaging workflow, cells live in the incubator, then the operator removes the plate, transports it to a microscope, images, and returns the plate to the incubator. Each cycle causes brief temperature loss during transport, CO2 atmosphere disruption during plate handling, and cell stress from thermal and atmospheric transitions, and true time-lapse imaging is impossible without specialized stage-top incubators on the microscope.
The IncuView integrated microscope approach mounts the microscope on a shelf inside the CO2 incubator chamber, so cells are imaged without leaving the controlled environment. This enables time-lapse and longitudinal imaging with no sample disturbance and no condensation interference, since samples stay in the chamber atmosphere with no chamber-to-room temperature gradient.
Pick the H3565-45-LCI when:
- Live-cell time-lapse imaging workflow at the 45 L chassis scale
- Longitudinal cell-biology studies where sample disturbance must be minimized
- Stem-cell differentiation / development imaging over hours-to-days timeframes
- Cancer cell motility / migration imaging requiring undisturbed CO2 / temperature
Step up to H3565-180-LCI for 180 L chassis pairing. Larger chamber accommodates more parallel imaging samples.
