T-CY
or
EPS 600 Creacon
T-CY
Creacon Technologies offers an easy to
use, high specification Thermal Cycler at an affordable price. By using the
latest developments in solid-state Peltier technology, a Thermal Cycler has been
designed to provide powerful ramp rates in combination with accurate temperature
and block uniformity.
And that's not all... The
T-CY offers also
a large graphical display, user friendly software, robust design and small bench
space. The T-CY
will meet your needs for a reliable, easy-to-use, fast, accurate and
programmable Thermal Cycler. What more can you ask for!
Models
The
T-CY can be
delivered in two different block formats. The 96 position sample block for use
with 0.2 ml sample tubes and the 60 position sample block for use with 0.5 ml
sample tubes. The 96 sample block has the 9 mm spacing micro plate format making
the T-CY
suitable for high throughput laboratories. The individual sample block holes
have been designed in such a way to give excellent contact between the block
surface and sample tube, ensuring a high degree of temperature consistence
within the sample. All models are supplied with an easy to open gas spring
supported lid.
Heated Lid
The heated lid has a flush fitting enclosure to
ensure a complete seal eliminating airflow across the sample block surface. This
means that the temperature control is maintained regardless of environmental
conditions. The in-lid surface is spring-mounted to ensure even contact and
pressure on all vials regardless of the tube height, ensuring no condensation of
water vapor on the tube lids. A specially designed, microprocessor controlled
heating element compensates temperature fluctuations along the lid.

Software
The control software installed in the
T-CY has been
designed to allow easy control and programming of the instrument. The
control panel comprises a clearly visualized 168 character LCD, upon which
navigation through the program menus is simple due to the logical file
layering.
The layering of menus allows the
operator to quickly select, view and start pre-entered programs. Each
program can be displayed in full so that all parameters can be verified
before commencing a program run.

All programs can be protected from
alteration by the use of a PIN-code. Incremented and decremented
temperatures and times can be included to allow changes in cycle parameters,
useful in protocols that utilize variable temperature settings. |
Peltier temperature control
The temperature control
is driven using solid-state Peltier technology giving control and power superior
to other methods. The use of high power Peltiers allows temperature ramp rates
up to 4 °C per second resulting in faster runs and overall shorter program
times. This allows a greater number of runs to be completed in a single day
increasing the work capacity of the instrument for laboratories with a high
number of samples.
