Introducing New PCRmax Products for 2017

Look to Cole-Parmer for the latest technology from PCRmax products. We are thrilled to bring you these new PCRmax products:

PCRmax Dry Block Heater gives you high accuracy in a small footprint. Heat samples in microtubes with this dry block heater using the interchangeable heating block modules. Each heating block module comes pre-calibrated and ready to use. Load a module onto the heater, set the time and temperature using the digital touch screen, and wait for the audible alarm to alert that the run has finished—it’s that simple!

Use the heating blocks in different heaters to run using the same program—the intelligent modules save the last run settings or save commonly used programs directly into the dry block heater.
Place on a benchtop or in a fume hood—the system’s compact footprint takes up minimal space while providing high accuracy and temperature uniformity.

PCRmax Heated MicroPlate allows you to create and store up to 100 shaking and heating programsThe compact heated microplate shaker is designed to allow simultaneous shaking and heating of sample plates and tubes at various temperatures and time intervals. Fully programmable, the unit can store up to 100 shaking and heating programs, each with different speed, time, and temperature settings. Eight commonly used programs come preloaded. The intuitive color touch-screen LCD makes mode switching and program selection quick and easy. To run a saved program simply attach a desired heating block module (sold separately) and press the start button. A visual countdown timer displays time remaining and an audible alert goes off at the completion of mixing program.

PCRmax Combination Vortex Mixer and Microplate Shaker provides you with the ability to operate the plate mixer and vortexer simultaneously. This combination vortex mixer and microplate shaker takes up less lab space than two stand-alone instruments—ideal for cramped fume hoods and benchtops. Both the plate and vortex mixer may be run at the same time. Save up to 190 user-defined mixing programs with unique names, or use the pre-programmed settings to adjust speed and time freely. The easy-to-navigate touch screen display has large icons for quick changes or program selection—even with gloves on.
Adapters are included to mix a wide variety of microwell plates and microtubes using the plate mixer portion. Set the orbital mixing speed from 200 to 3000 rpm (2000 rpm maximum for deep-well and plates with a mass over 80 grams) from 5 seconds to 28 days.
