DescriptionThermo–Shaker TS-100C Smart provides intensive mixing and precise temperature control of samples in microtubes or PCR plates. This model adds active cooling down to +4°C and supports control of up to 7 units from a PC via Bluetooth®.
Key features- Rapid attainment of set mixing speed and maintenance of uniform orbital amplitude across the Thermo–Shaker block
- Stable maintenance of set temperature over the block surface
- LCD display shows preset and actual values of temperature, speed and run time
- Quiet motor operation, compact footprint and long service life
Operation modesHeating, cooling and mixing functions can be used simultaneously or independently according to the protocol requirements.
Blocks and compatibilityThirteen interchangeable heating/cooling blocks are available, including a block with a plastic lid for PCR plates. Blocks are ordered separately and are easily installed on the Thermo–Shaker.
Applications- Genetic analysis — extraction of DNA/RNA and sample preparation
- Biochemical studies of enzymatic reactions and processes
- Extraction of metabolites from cellular material
Temperature Calibration FunctionThe temperature calibration function allows the user to calibrate the unit by approximately ±6% of the selected temperature to compensate for differences in thermal behaviour between tubes from different manufacturers.
TS-100C Smart software features- Control of rotation speed
- Temperature control
- Time programming
- Audible alarm
- Creation of profiling programs using controlled parameters
- Visualization of temperature vs time and speed vs time graphs
- Data export to Excel and CSV formats
- Error messages and fault diagnostics
