The incubator tops are clear allowing good visibility of the eggs The base is double skinned and foam filled to reduce heat loss meaning lower electricityĬonsumption and better temperature distribution. The high quality incubator cabinets are entirely injection moulded from high grade ABS which makes themĭurable and easy to clean. Further information on the benefits of cooling in incubation can be found by clicking here.Ĭabinet. After the cooling period is complete the incubator reverts to normal temperature and the alarm is automatically reset. This feature turns the incubator’s heater and low temperature alarm off for a selected period but keeps the fan running. Temperature and power fail alarms with adjustable sensitivityīrinsea’s Octagon 20 and 40 incubators have been popular with bird breeders for decades and the latest models provide a combination of performance and value whichever model you choose.īrinsea have now incorporated a cooling option in all their Advance models of egg incubators for 2012 for proven increases in hatch rates.Temperature and humidity display (choice of deg.C or deg.F).The simple menu allows the user to change incubation settings. In normal mode the display shows the incubation temperature and humidity to very high levels of accuracy.
The Humidity Pump module is designed to work seamlessly with an Octagon 40 Advance and can be purchased later as an upgrade from Octagon 40 Advance to Octagon 40 Advance EX. The Humidity Pump includes an external water reservoir eliminating the chances of water in the incubator harbouring bacteria. This overcomes problems that can commonly lead to eggs failing to hatch – especially in the latest stages of incubation. The EX version with the Humidity Pump effectively maintains the humidity level precisely at the level the user sets irrespective of changes in room humidity within practical limits. The standard Octagon 40 Advance provides a readout of incubation humidity but requires the user to alter humidity to achieve the ideal average level. Octagon 40 Advance EX incubators are Octagon 40 Advance incubators with the matching Humidity Pump module to maintain total control of the incubation humidity level and additional foam lined egg dividers to protect fragile or damaged eggs and eliminate effects of jolts. Double skinned insulated base for low energy consumption and even temperature.4 whisper quiet fans and computer modelled temperature distribution for optimum hatch rates.Adjustable for eggs from quail to goose size without extras Humidity is a crucial factor in successful hatching and the EX versions of the Octagon 40 Advance allow the user to set the humidity level which the incubator will automatically and accurately maintain. Improved control for valuable and hard-to-incubate eggs
