Don Whitley Scientific Whitley A95 anaerobic workstation

The Whitley A95 workstation is the largest model in the Don Whitley Scientific range of modified atmosphere chambers, with a capacity of up to 1400 petri dishes. The company incorporates full-colour, touch-screen technology.

The system has an integral 30 L airlock with automatic internal door, which can transfer 90 plates in 5 min. It has dual gas operation which contributes to low running costs and there is an optional fully integrated anaerobic conditions monitor with data download facility.

The product features four oval, manual, sleeved ports that enable two people to operate simultaneously within the same workstation. These ports also act as mini-airlocks for 10 plates each, so for smaller quantities of samples the airlock doesn’t have to be used.

The workstation features remote monitoring, allowing access from any computer or mobile device with a secure internet connection. This option enables users to review and alter system settings, change user access levels and receive product support. There is also a maintenance-free dehumidification system for automatic humidity control.

Don Whitley Scientific also offers a range of additional accessories to tailor the system to the user’s requirements. Such options include a single plate entry system, internal power socket, automatic sleeve gassing or a microscope attachment. The company also manufactures other products that are suitable for use in conjunction with the workstation.
