PR1MA™ Digital Dry Bath Series

• Digital temperature control
• Hinged lid
• External (optional) temperature probe
• Available with Quick-Flip universal blocks (supports all common tube sizes, PCR strips, and PCR plates)
• Blocks sold separately

The PR1MA™ Digital Dry Bath Series is a "next generation" product line that introduces several major advantages over traditional dry baths. They are the first digital dry baths to include advanced microprocessor controls, timed or continuous operation, and a removable hinged lid. In addition, an optional external temperature feedback probe can be positioned directly inside a sample tube, providing real-time control and monitoring of actual sample temperature.

The PR1MA™ Digital Dry Bath's transparent lid helps to promote better uniformity and minimize temperature stratification in the block by maintaining a warm air jacket layer. It also helps to reduce energy consumption by minimizing heat loss to the environment. The hinged lid can be flipped open (to the rear), or easily removed (lifted off) to accommodate taller tubes.

Both the single and dual block models can be ordered in a configuration that includes our unique Quick-Flip™ blocks. These universal blocks accept tubes from 0.5 to 2.0 mL and, with just a quick flip to the other side, accommodate 0.2 mL tubes, PCR strips or (in the dual block model only) a PCR plate.

Other blocks are available for tubes up to 50 mL.

PR1MA™ Roto-Mini Series

• Includes tube holders for common tube sizes, 11 x 1.5 / 0.2 mL (pack of 2), 5 x 10-15 mL (pack of 2), 5 x 5-7 mL (pack of 2), 6 x 50 mL (pack of 1)
• Plus model available with variable speed control and advanced shaking / mixing modes: Mix (Oscillating), Pause, Rock

The new PR1MA™ Roto-Mini Series of rotating mixers provide a wide range of mixing capabilities. Suitable for an array of laboratory applications including resuspension, protein binding, nucleic acid purification, etc. the mixers include interchangeable tube holders for accommodating all common tube sizes from 0.5 mL to 50 mL. The motion can be adjusted from vertical (end over end) mixing, to horizontal (rolling or hybridization style) mixing.

The Roto-Mini rotator is also available in a "Plus" configuration, providing the following additional features:

PR1MA™ Mini Digital Incubator

• Digital temperature control
• Personal sized, 13 x 14.5″ footprint (20 L)
• Accepts bottles and flasks up to 2 L
• Internal outlet, for installation of shaker, rockers, etc.

With digital temperature control, the PR1MA™ Digital Refrigerated Incubator provides a convenient “set and walk away” operation, eliminating the need for external thermometers and repetitive “fine-tuning” of an analog control knob. Simply choose the desired temperature and the incubator immediately begins to heat up while accurately monitoring the chamber temperature and conveniently displaying the temperature in real-time on the large LED control panel.

Despite a modest footprint of 14.5 x 13″, the incubator features a large internal chamber, capable of storing flasks and bottles up to 2 Liters. In addition, the incubator includes two adjustable shelves and an internal outlet for powering small shakers, rockers, and other instrumentation. A mini nutating rocker (H3D1020) supplied with both flat and dimpled mats is available for the agitation of samples during incubation.

PR1MA™ Mini CO₂ Incubator

• Digital control of temperature and CO₂
• Personal-sized, 13 x 14.5 in. footprint (20 L)
• Accepts bottles and flasks up to 2 L
• Includes 2 stainless steel shelves
• Dual beam, infrared sensor

At only 13 inches wide, the PR1MA™ Mini CO₂ Incubator is the smallest and most economical incubator for applications requiring CO₂ gas control. Its small footprint makes the incubator ideal for use inside of biological safety cabinets, isolating sensitive cultures, or for any laboratory simply trying to conserve bench space. With a thick layer of high-efficiency insulation surrounding the chamber, the incubator is also ideal for the transportation of cells. Once power has been disconnected, the incubator maintains temperature levels within 10% of the set parameter for up to 1 hour*. In addition, each model includes a 12 V vehicle power adapter for operating the instrument in a car, boat, etc.

Both temperature and CO₂ percentages are digitally adjustable and displayed in real-time on the large LED control panel. This panel also features a “Cal” function, for easy in-lab calibration of the temperature or CO₂. In addition, humidity (up to 80%) can be added to the chamber by inserting the included (stainless steel) humidity reservoir.

Despite its small size, the incubator features a relatively large 20 L chamber with the capacity for flasks and bottles up to 2 liters. Two removable, stainless-steel shelves are included. The shelves are perforated to improve airflow within the chamber.

* If disconnected from the CO₂ supply, CO₂ percentage decreases by approx. 1%/30 min.

BioClave™ Research Autoclaves

• Designed specifically for the sterilization of laboratory research tools
• Fully automatic operation – just press start
• Internal memory for retrieving cycle data 
• Built in water tank - no external connection needed
• 8 L, 16 L and 28 L models - all models small enough for benchtop use

Despite the space-saving exterior dimensions of the Bioclaves, the stainless steel chambers are surprisingly large, accommodating a variety of liquids, media, instruments, glassware, plasticware, and other common research laboratory items. Available in 8L, 18L, and 28L chamber volumes, these benchtop models include a mechanical and electrical safety interlock that prevents the door from being opened until the pressure has reached zero PSI.

With a large digital LCD display and fully automatic operation, all segments of the cycle (fill, sterilize, exhaust, and dry) commence and run to completion by simply pressing the start button. An optional thermal mini-printer is also available for providing a record of sterilization parameters and a USB drive can be used to record settings and transfer them to a PC.

The 8-liter BioClave Mini is preprogrammed to meet basic sterilization needs. Temperature can be selected at either 121°C or 134°C, and the sterilization time is fully adjustable. The economical BioClave Mini is the ideal choice wherever benchtop sterilization is required and space is limited.

BioClave 18L and 28L Models offer preset cycle options (standard programs), for use with liquids, wrapped research instruments, or unwrapped instruments/plasticware. An additional option “Dry Only” is also available for additional drying time to be added to the end of a cycle. For special applications, requiring variations in cycle parameters, all settings are fully adjustable.

The Bioclave 28L features an increased chamber size with a diameter of 32cm. With this larger internal chamber, the BioClave 28 is our only model capable of sterilizing 1 and 2 liters flasks (and bottles). Despite the increased chamber size, the unit is still relatively compact, suitable for benchtop use.
