The MultiGene OptiMax Thermal Cycler delivers advanced speed and features while providing premium performance at an affordable price. This simple to program unit is compact in design and built to perform. Programming is intuitive with the large display and multiple pre-programmed templates supplied with unit. The OptiMax comes with standard built in 2-step, temperature optimization, touchdown and time increment protocols that are easy to adjust to meet your cycling needs. You can select lid temperature or turn it off depending on your needs. The faster ramp rates allow more work to be done in a work day.

Additionally, The MultiGene OptiMax employs a new protocol optimization process improving on older gradient features. This "Better than Gradient" capability allows users to select up to 6 distinct annealing temperatures to be run simultaneously. This is ideal for method optimization as well as applications like genotyping.

The Orbit 1900 shaker is designed for continuous use and heavy loads. Its solid construction and counter balanced drive system provide vibration-free operation.

Operation of the shaker can be timed or continuous, while the speed is variable. Both time and speed are set digitally with a single knob. Values are shown on the large, three digit LED display.

Three heavy-duty stainless steel platforms are available to accommodate a variety of different sizes of sample containers. The flat platform is useful for trays, plates, boxes and other containers. A non-slip mat on the platform surface keeps items in place. Flasks are held on the flask platform through the use of clamps (sold separately). As many as five 2L or six 1L flasks can be shaken on the platform. A universal bar clamp platform adjusts to hold odd shaped containers. Suitable for use in an incubator or cold room.

The 230V product includes both EU and UK power cords.

The Prism and Prism R are the premier models to Labnet's microcentrifuge line. These two units feature powerful brushless motors and an intuitive control panel.

The Prism R is the refrigerated model that incorporates a powerful cooling system that maintains temperatures as low as -10°C and can reach 4°C in less than 8 minutes. The Prism is the air-cooled model, which was designed to keep samples close to ambient temperature, even when operating at maximum speed. It can also be used in a cold room.

Speed in both units is easily set and displayed in either rpm or rcf. Operation of the units can be timed, continuos or momentary, using the "Quick" button. Vibration free operation is ensured by an isolation system. In the event of a significant imbalance, operation of the centrifuge is automatically stopped for safety. Deceleration at the end of a run is very quick, but will not disrupt samples.

Both of these centrifuges are supplied with a uniquely designed 24 x 1.5/2.0mL rotor that allows easy access to the tops of the sample tubes. Individual tube slots in the solid aluminum rotor support tubes along their length and contain the sample in the event of tube failure. Adapters are available for smaller tubes as well as PCR strips. The rotor is seated on a tapered shaft which facilitates easy removal for cleaning and autoclaving.

The 230V product includes both EU and UK power cords.

The Rocker 35 EZ is the next generation large capacity rocker from Labnet. This upgraded Rocker 35 is designed for durability in laboratories requiring a large platform area and precise control over rocking parameters. It is backed by a 5 year warranty.

Both speed and time are easily selectable and the analog control has been upgraded to display discreet values. The tilt is not easily adjustable with a knob on the side. This system can handle up to 11 pounds or 5 kg of load so a double platform can be fully loaded without any variation to speed.

The unit comes in both single and dual platform models and includes a ribbed no-sleep rubber mat to keep containers in place. This unit is also compatible with our sticky mat (I-5240) for applications requiring greater sample adhesion to the platform.

This product includes EU and UK cords.

Labnet Digital Dry Bath Heaters are available in Single, Dual, and Four Block configurations and provide a broad temperature range up to 150°C, which makes them useful for a variety of applications in molecular biology, histology, clinical, environmental, and industrial laboratories. They have been designed to incorporate the best combination of features including block capacity, dual displays, and an external temperature probe that gives life science.

The Labnet Dry Baths are available in Single, Dual, and Four Block capacity to maximize sample processing. The Dry Baths come with a molded block chamber which provides excellent temperature uniformity. The dual display allows for easy monitoring of temperature and time. Additionally, the USB connectivity enables traceability of data.

The 230V units include EU and UK cords.

Labnet's MPS 1000 Mini Plate Spinner is the first centrifuge designed specifically for quick and easy centrifugation of samples in PCR plates or microplates.

Centrifuges that accept microplates are typically larger units that take up valuable space on the bench. The unique design of the Mini Plate Spinner, results in a compact centrifuge that has an extremely small footprint - just 6 x 6 in. Two standard microplates are loaded through a slot in the top of the unit. Sealed plates are loaded vertically - surface tension keeps samples in place so there is no danger of spilling samples.

Upon closing the lid of the unit, the rotor quickly accelerates the microplates to 2,500 rpm. Pressing the open button engages the brake and brings the rotor to a stop. For temperature sensitive applications, the Plate Spinner may be used in a cold room.

The Spectrafuge 24D combines innovations such as a unique, easy access rotor, exclusive multi-flow air cooling system and high performance drive with a digital microprocessor that precisely regulates operation.

Parameters are selected with two "smart" knobs and values are shown on large, easy to read, LED displays. Speed can be set and displayed in rpm or g-force while runs may be timed, continuous or momentary.

The unique design of the 24-place aluminum rotor allows easy access to the tops of the tubes. An optional StripSpin™ adapter fits onto the rotor for spinning 0.2 mL tubes and strips. A powerful, brushless motor quickly accelerates the rotor to set speed.

Air enters the centrifuge through vents on the back of the housing and is circulated in multiple directions to maximize cooling. The result is a cool running microcentrifuge that keeps samples close to ambient temperature, even during extended runs at maximum speed. For samples that require below ambient temperatures, the Spectrafuge 24D may be used in a cold room.

Designed for simultaneous heating and mixing of small samples, the VorTemp 56 is supplied with interchangeable platforms for microtubes (56 x 1.5mL tubes, or smaller tubes with adapters) or microplates (accepts standard and deepwell plates, up to 2.0mL). VorTemp 1550 includes platforms for 8 x 50mL and 18 x 15mL tubes.

Temperature and shaking speed are adjustable over a broad range, making the VorTemps useful for a variety of applications, including bacterial cultures. Mechanical convection provides a uniform and stable environment. The shaker in the VorTemp 56 may be turned off, allowing the unit to be used as a static incubator.

A microprocessor controls all parameters including temperature and timed operation. Self diagnostic software continuously monitors the unit for proper temperature and shaking speed, alerting the user to any errors. Heating and shaking are controlled by feedback loops which precisely maintain chosen parameters, independent of load or voltage fluctuations. The sturdy construction of the VorTemps provides stability during high speed shaking. The chamber is fully insulated to maintain uniform temperature and to reduce operating noise.

The 230V products include both EU and UK cords.
