Torrey Pines Scientific announces the EchoTherm vibration-free
benchtop chilling incubators with a range of 4.0 C to 70.0 C. These units are
suited for protein crystallography and other life science laboratory uses.
Both incubators are Peltier-based for heating and chilling.
As such, they have no compressors or CFCs and are vibration-free making them
suitable for doing protein crystallizations. Other applications include
incubating marine samples below room temperature, enzyme reactions and
deactivations, hybridizations, ligations, storing oocytes, and general laboratory
incubations.
There are four models. Two are fully programmable and two
are simple digital controls. Chamber sizes are 27.5 L and 55.0 L. They feature
PID temperature control, digital display and accuracy to 0.1 C and RS232 I/O
port for remote control and data collection.
In addition, there is a digital timer in hours, minutes, and
seconds with user-settable auto-off, temperature ramping on programmable
models, and audible alarms.
The 27.5-L units have chamber sizes of 12 in high by 10 in
deep by 14 in wide and come with two stainless steel racks with room for two additional
racks. The 55.0-L units have chambers of 24 in high by 10 in deep by 14 in wide
and come with four stainless steel racks with room for two additional racks.
