The Octagon Range of Incubators

Incubators for All Needs:

Hobbyist & Educators: Inexpensive and Functional
Intermediate Level: One Step Up - Increased Reliability & Capacity
Professional Incubators: Features for Advanced Use & Maximum Hatchability

Poultry Eggs or Parrot Eggs

For expensive and endangered species' eggs, the preferred choice would be the Octagon 20 Advance over the Octagon 20 ECO. It’s not so much a question of hatchability, but the main reason being that the Advance offers more control over the incubation environment (temperature alarms and readout of humidity even when not used with the humidity pump).

Octagon 20 ECO - The Reliable yet Affordable Incubator - LOWEST POSSIBLE SALES Price!

The NEW! Octagon 20 Eco egg incubator is a simple but high quality egg incubator using the same tough and insulted cabinet as the Octagon 20 Advance coupled to a simple well proven electronic temperature control to give reliable hatching results of a wide range of species with minimum fuss.
Egg Capacity: Quail - 60; Pheasant - 40; Hen - 24; Duck - 20; Goose - 9/12

Octagon 20 ECO - The High Quality and Economical Incubator! Octagon 20 ECO -- The Economical, yet Reliable, Alternative

The Octagon 20 ECO fills the need for a basic but high quality and reliable small incubator at a very affordable price.

This new model combines the plastic cabinet of the Octagon 20 Advance (featured below) and the analogue control from the older, but proven Octagon 20 DX. The Octagon 20 ECO fits the same Autoturn cradle as the Advance but is much simpler to use:

Note: There is no facility for humidity measurement or control in the ECO incubator -- this incubator is specifically designed for the cost-conscious and those who require simplicity over features.

Features Include:

Egg capacity of 24 hens eggs or equivalent
Simple and accurate proportional band electronic temperature control
Temperature factory preset at 99.5 F F but easily adjusted with an easy tamper-proof screw adjuster.
Flashing temperature indicator and conventional but accurate liquid in glass thermometer
Fan assisted air circulation proof adjustment
Good visibility of the eggs
Tough and hygienic cabinet
Insulated for low energy use and optimal temperature distribution
Warranty: 2 years. Please click here for info.

Technical Features:

Control system

The Octagon 20 Eco controls temperature with high accuracy using a proven proportional band electronic controller with easy tamper-proof adjustment. A flashing indicator shows that the incubation temperature is being controlled steadily and temperature is monitored with a purpose made liquid in glass thermometer.

Cabinet

The high quality incubator cabinet is entirely injection moulded from high grade ABS which makes it tough and easy to clean. The base is double skinned and foam filled to reduce heat loss leading to lower electricity consumption and better temperature distribution. The top of the incubator is clear allowing good visibility of the eggs and chicks.

Humidity and ventilation

Air is circulated by a long life computer grade fan which, coupled
with the unique grill with optimised air diffuser leads to extremely
even air temperature throughout the egg chamber. Fresh air is
controlled with a vent slider and humidity is provided by water in
two reservoirs in the base

Egg Handling

To accommodate eggs of different sizes the Octagon 20 Eco’s removable egg tray is supplied with dividers which the user can position to suit their eggs and so maximise the number of eggs that can be held. Eggs as small as finches to as large as geese can be incubated and a capacity guide for a range of popular species is given in the specification table. Eggs are turned during incubation as the whole incubator is rocked from side to side – hence the Octagonal cabinet ends. This can be done manually at least twice each day or turning is performed automatically if the incubator is used with the optional Autoturn Cradle which turns the eggs hourly.

Guarantee: All Octagon incubators are fully guaranteed and will be repaired or replaced if a fault should arise within the guarantee period. However, the seller will not be responsible for loss of eggs in the event of failure, however caused, and the user is advised to arrange his own insurance cover where loss of power, mechanical or electrical failure might result in unacceptable losses.

Digital display of temperature and humidity
Automatic temperature control in °F or °C fully factory calibrated. High and low temperature alarms.The temperature is factory preset at 99.5F.
Automatic egg turning
Fan assisted air circulation
Good visibility of the eggs
Robust hygienic ABS construction for easy cleaning

24 hen eggs capacity but suitable for a wide range of egg sizes (adjustable dividers)
2-year warranty

Humidity Control Octagon 20 ADVANCE EX digital egg incubator

Improved control for valuable and hard-to-incubate eggs.

Humidity is a crucial factor in the success (or otherwise) of eggs and the EX version of the Octagon 20 Advance puts accurate control of humidity in the hands of the user.

The Octagon 20 Advance EX is an Octagon 20 Advance incubator 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. The standard Octagon 20 Advance provides a readout of incubation humidity but requires the user to alter humidity to achieve the ideal average level.

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 and so overcomes problems that can commonly lead to eggs failing to hatch – especially in the latest stages of incubation. The Humidity Pump includes an external water reservoir eliminating the chances of water in the incubator harboring bacteria.

	Control system The specially designed control system is the heart of the Octagon 20 Advance. In normal mode it shows the incubation temperature and humidity to very high levels of accuracy. A simple menu allows the user to change the incubation settings. Features include high and low temperature alarm and choice of °C or °F. The menu also allows full control of humidity with the optional Advance Humidity Pump (see Octagon 20 Advance EX below).
	Cabinet The high quality incubator cabinet is entirely injection moulded from high grade ABS which makes it durable and easy to clean. The base is double skinned and foam filled to reduce heat loss meaning to lower electricity consumption and better temperature distribution. The top of the incubator is clear allowing good visibility of the eggs and chicks.
