Incubation
Egg Incubator
An incubator that watches oxygen and CO₂, not just temperature.
The challenge
Most incubators hold temperature and little else, so hatch rates vary from batch to batch.
Egg Incubator
The air inside an incubator changes as embryos grow, and pressure and humidity drift with the weather. This incubator's own control board reads temperature, humidity, pressure, oxygen and CO₂, turns the eggs and is designed to keep a record of every batch.
Incubation & Rearing
Where it works
Hatcheries
Steadier conditions for every batch.
Conservation breeding
Careful incubation for valuable eggs.
Bird & reptile breeders
Climate and air quality watched for each clutch.
What it does
Temperature & humidity
Climate sensing for the incubation chamber.
Pressure
A barometric sensor tracks air pressure.
Oxygen & CO₂
Gas sensors watch the air as embryos develop.
Egg turning
A stepper motor turns the eggs.
Five switched outputs
Relays for heating, fans, humidity and more.
Peltier drive
A thermoelectric module driver for temperature control.
How it works
Load
Set the eggs on the turning tray and choose the incubation settings.
Incubate
The board holds temperature and humidity, turns the eggs and watches the air.
Review
Check conditions and the batch record through the hatch.
Why teams choose it
Steadier hatches
Air and climate watched together.
Batch records
Designed to keep a record of every batch.
Several sensors
Climate and gas readings cross-check each other.
Fine control
Peltier drive and five outputs for precise climate.
