High capacity variable speed rotating mixer
This high capacity unit can mix 50-0.5ml and 48-1.5ml centrifuge tubes with snap-on caps or screw down caps in an end-over-end motion at speeds varying from 4 to 40rpm
Temperature control of small volume samples
Constant temperature chilling/heating mini-circulator for use with small volume sample holders like water jacketed cuvettes for spectrophotometers and electrophoresis baths
The model SC20 is the simple digital unit and the model SC25 is the fully programmable unit having five-program memory capacity.
Both units have a temperature range from -10C to 100C and incorporate a variable speed orbital mixer which allows for mixing and controlling temperature of samples simultaneously.
Both units have 30-day count down timers with alarm and auto-off, data logger, and RS232 I/O port.
The SC20 and SC25 accommodate accessory sample blocks available for 0.2, 0.5, 1.5, and 15ml centrifuge tubes, 2ml vials, 20ml scintillation vials, PCR tubes and plates, 96-well and 384-well assay plates of all shapes and other blocks for various sizes of test tubes.
The units are Peltier driven, control to 1C, mix from 200 to 1000 rpm and have a backlit two-line alphanumeric display.
Both models are excellent molecular biology tools and can be used to run temperature/time profiles, unattended restriction digestions or ligations, automatic enzyme reactions and deactivations, storing oocytes at 17C, storing DNA libraries at the workstation, and for replacing messy ice buckets and more.
Both units come complete with instructions and universal bench top power supply for use anywhere in the world.
They are UL, CSA and CE compliant.
