| Hot Bonnet® heated lid - with clamp-arm
action - keeps reaction vessels tightly sealed for reliable
oil-free cycling. These 'HB' models are available to fit either
0.5ml or 0.2ml tubes; retrofits are available. |
| Sophisticated Peltier-Joule heat pump - designed for
many years' service - delivers the expanded temperature range of
-9° to 105°C electronically, without the need for any bulky
mechanical refrigerator inside. |
| Extremely fast cycling, with ramping speeds that
average 1.8°/sec in the 50°-100°C range (max: 2.4°/sec). In
addition, any temperature may be held indefinitely, which allows
refrigeration of samples after a run. |
| Unparalleled thermal uniformity: ±0.4° within 12 sec,
±0.3° within 40 sec of arrival at 90°C (well-to-well). |
| NIST-traceable thermal accuracy, with average of all
wells within ±0.3° of NIST-traceable standard at 90°C. |
| Compact, lightweight & portable - unit measures only
22x28x11cm high and weighs just 3 kilograms. |
| 'Instant Incubation' for digestions, ligations, etc. -
just a few keystrokes send the block to any temperature. |
| Large memory & amiable software with 32-character LCD
display. Memory stores up to 80 programs; rates of ramping or
incremental changes in the time/temp. of incubation can be
programmed with ease. |
| Interchangeable sample-block/heat-pump assembly with
choice of format (designed for occasional change):
16 x 0.5 ml tubes, for the ease of working with readily-available
microfuge tubes that you can write on;
25 x 0.2 ml tubes, for use with the same thin-walled vessels that
are popular in the 96-well formats. |
| Optional in-sample probe allows control of reactions
through
representative-sample temperature. |
| Power-failure protection so program execution will
resume after power interruptions of up to 12 hours. |
| Universal power circuitry allows operation anywhere in
the world without adjustment (100-240 VAC). |
| Two-year parts & labor warranty, optional extended
warranties; CSA-certified, & CE-marked. |
