Up to three incubators can be stacked on top of each other, occupying the same floor space as a single conventional shaker.
The shaker can be fitted with CO₂ and humidity control allowing the ISF1-X to be used for cell cultivation. Humidity control is also important for  cultivation in microtiter plates, reducing water loss from the wells. The high shaking speed of the ISF1-X ensures oxygen unlimited cultivation of microorganisms. 
A front opening door allows greater versatility when siting the shaker (it will even fit under a bench) and also makes loading much easier  than with a top opening model. The door opens without obstructing the surrounding area.
As the entire inner chamber is made of stainless steel, the incubator can be easily sterilized with chemicals.
