XTS-384 - Variable Temperature Thermal Sealer

	Heat sealing temperature 125-200oC.
	Selectable temperature setting to suit a variety of sealing films.
	Heat sealing time of 1-9 seconds with selectable sealing time.
	Auto notification when correct sealing position is reached.
	Rapid heating element for quick start-up.
	Stable safe design.
	Adaptors for all plate varieties and deep well block compatible.
	Ergonomic design to minimise operator strain.
	Full range of thermal seals available.
	Single action operation, no need to rotate plate and re-seal.

The xts-384 Variable Temperature Thermal Sealer is a low to medium throughput manual heat sealer. Compatible with a wide range seals and plates of differing heights by using the appropriate plate adapters.

The variable temperature heating element of the sealer allows for the optimisation of all seals and plates ensuring no damage to either, plate, seal or sample. The unique counter-lever handle mechanism ensures the correct pressure is applied with an ergonomic design minimising the force required.

Combined with the variable temperature element is a programmable count down timer and alarm that ensures the correct pressure, temperature and time are used for optimal sealing.

XCS-384 - Manual Plate Sealer

	Seals all standard 96, 384 and 1536 micro plates and blocks.
	Wide range of foil and adhesive seals (DMSO resistant).
	Simple operation. Quick. Seals a plate within 4 seconds.
	No sample degradation from heating.
	3M Micro encapsulated foil materials provide a totally non-sticky surface except where pressure is applied on contact to the well edge.
	Peelable foils can be removed with no residue (non-tacky) and re-sealed up to 25 times.

The system operates by simply sliding a plate into the left side of the unit, which then starts automatically. The plate is pulled through without further assistance.

A roller mechanism is used to apply a constant pressure, ensuring a more uniform seal than compression plate- based systems.

Adhesive seals are widely used for short and long-term sample storage, thermal cycling and assay incubation. It is the preferable sealing method for applications where plates must be sealed and accessed multiple times as there is no heat damage to well chimneys.

The xcs-384 Plate Sealer is also used for applications such as protein crystallography and bacterial/cell culture growth, where sealing with adhesives is required but even small temperature fluctuations need to be avoided.

XRS 384 - Fully Automated Plate Sealer

The xrs-384 has the same functionality as the xcs-384 with the added feature of being designed to be integrated into other systems such as fully automated work-cell environments or standard sample processors.

XCM 96 - Manual Cap Mat Plate Sealer

Seals all standard 96, 384 and 1536 well microplates and blocks.

Constant pressure produces and even seal. Seals a plate within 4 seconds.

XFP 384 - Foil Piercing Unit

Microplates sealed with aluminium foil can be pierced quickly and without any contamination.

Piercing a 384-well plate takes only 4 seconds.
