The Shel Lab G2545A Hybridization Oven is a stainless-steel oven designed for microarray hybridization in applications such as molecular biology assays, southern (DNA) hybridization, northern (RNA) hybridization, and western blotting. This hybridization oven's unique fan assisted airflow system circulates air evenly and continuously, delivering excellent temperature uniformity throughout the oven chamber with a range from Ambient +5°C to 70°C. This system ensures fast recovery of chamber temperature after a door opening.
The digital set/digital read microprocessor temperature controller maximizes rapid heat-up of the oven. An over temperature safety control is automatically set by the microprocessor at 1.0°C above the setpoint. In the unlikely event of a microprocessor failure, a thermal cutoff will shut off the power to the heating elements. The 2 to 20 RPM rotation speed range permits hybridization and washing at different speeds at the touch of a dial. A separate jogging switch has been included to allow incremental rotation of the carousel for easy loading and unloading.
All of our equipment is fully tested to perform at factory specifications before being shipped.
The Shel Lab G2545A Hybridization Oven includes:
- > 24 Place Hybridization Chamber Carousel
- > Operator's Manual
- > Power Cord
- > Full 180 Day Parts and Labor Warranty
