MJ Research PTC-200 Thermal Cycler w/ 384 Well Alpha Block

The MJ Research PTC-200 Thermal Cycler utilizes interchangeable sample blocks and heat pump assemblies, which allow the user to change format easily between runs while retaining NIST-traceable accuracy. This PTC-200 comes with a 384 well block and can accommodate 60 well blocks, 96-well alpha block, dual 48 well blocks, and many others, including specialty blocks like the insitu. The precise Peltier effect heat pumps deliver the full temperature range of 0 to 100C electronically, all in a compact, small-footprint instrument. The MJ Research PTC-200 offers speedy ramping rates of up to 3.0/sec in models that hold 0.2ml tubes or V-well plates. It also features unparalleled temperature homogeneity of 0.4C within 30 seconds of arrival at 60C for all standard models. The PTC-200 has a large memory and amiable software that allows control over virtually every thermal parameter.

The MJ Research PTC-200 is in excellent condition and will be fully tested to perform at factory specifications before being shipped.

Thermal Cycler Inspection and Recertification Checklist

Validate that the power supply and PCB consistently deliver accurate, stable voltages across all circuits and connections, confirming operational reliability
Thoroughly inspect the display for any dim, flickering, or dead pixels, replacing compromised segments to ensure clear visibility and precise data display
Verify complete functionality and responsiveness of all buttons and knobs, confirming accurate and reliable input across all controls
Ensure the machine completes all internal diagnostic checks with zero errors, indicating system readiness and functional integrity
Confirm the machine accurately identifies attached blocks (96-well, dual 48, etc.), with seamless recognition across different configurations
Conduct a detailed inspection of internal wiring and all electrical connections, checking for any signs of breaks, disconnections, or tears; replace or repair any underperforming components
Examine the connector between the block and base for bent or broken pins, replacing as needed to maintain secure, reliable connections
Calibrate well temperatures with a NIST-traceable thermometer, verifying accuracy and uniformity across all wells to meet specification standards
Perform a comprehensive cosmetic inspection, ensuring all exterior surfaces and components are free of damage, wear, or defects, maintaining aesthetic and professional quality
