Torrey Pines Scientific New Chilling/
Heating Dry Bath
Torrey Pines Scientific announces its EchoTherm Model IC50,
Peltier driven, Chilling/Heating Dry Bath with exact sample
temperature control. The unit is supplied with a temperature probe
to insert directly into the sample or into the sample block. The
probe senses the sample temperature or sample block temperature
directly and sends that information to the unit to drive and control
the temperature exactly where set.
There is also a sensor in the heater plate for allowing the user to
set the plate temperature and use the probe to monitor the sample
temperature. The Model IC50 displays and controls temperature to
±0.1°C. It can freeze, chill or heat samples from -10.0°C to 110.0°C
in assay plates, centrifuge tubes of all sizes, vials, test tubes, and
most any other sample container. It is particularly well suited to
the molecular biology lab for doing hybridizations, sample prep for
PCR, ligations, enzyme reactions and deactivations and much more.
The Model IC50 has digital display and control of temperature to
0.1°C; count down timer in days, hours, minutes and seconds to 30
days; surface hot indicator lamp; data logger; and RS232 I/O port
to control the unit by computer or to record data. The compact unit
measures 6.5" (165 mm) wide by 8.75" (222 mm) deep by 3.5" (89
mm) tall. It comes complete with 100 watt chiller/heater module,
universal power supply, AC line cord, and instructions. A variety
of over 30 standard sample blocks may be ordered as accessories.
Special blocks can be made for any container in as little as 3 weeks.
