Thermo Scientific ALPS 50V Manual Heat Sealer

Thermo Scientific ALPS 50V Manual Heat Sealer

Description

The Thermo Scientific ALPS 50V Manual Heat Sealer is designed for the secure sealing of microplates to prevent sample evaporation and contamination during storage or thermal cycling. This semi-automated heat sealer provides a consistent method for applying heat-activated sealing films and foils to various plate formats, ensuring a reliable seal for sensitive laboratory samples. Its compact design and manual lever operation make it suitable for low-to-medium throughput laboratories requiring a portable and easy-to-use sealing solution.

Key Features

• Manual lever operation allows for controlled and repeatable sealing pressure across different plate types.
• Compact footprint ensures the unit occupies minimal bench space and is easily portable within the laboratory.
• Digital temperature control provides precise heat settings to accommodate a variety of sealing materials.
• Built-in safety features protect the user from accidental contact with the heating element during operation.
• Simple interface allows for rapid setup and adjustment of sealing parameters for different workflows.

Applications

• Sealing microplates for long-term sample storage to prevent evaporation.
