9.2 Incubator specifications
Performance of the incubator with flat-bottomed microplates with nominal voltages:
Programmable temperature range +14°C – +69°C
Controlled incubation range Ambient plus 3°C to +69.0°C
Resolution 0.1°C
Programmable incubation time Up to 48 hours in steps of 1 second
Slot warmup time < 35 minutes to reach a 65°C ± 1.0°C target temperature when
starting from ambient temperature (approx. 24°C) (on an average
95% of setting value, with 200 µl water/well, with a plate sealer at
nominal voltage)
Inaccuracy ± 0.5°C (calculated as the mean of the minimum and maximum
well temperatures of wells A1, A12, H1, H12 and E7, after 1 hour
at +65°C, with an ambient temperature of 24°C, with 200 µl
water/well, with a plate sealer, and without shaking)
Uniformity < 0.6°C across the entire plate (calculated as the difference
between the maximum and minimum well temperatures of wells
A1, A12, H1, H12 and E7, after 1 hour at 65°C, with an ambient
temperature of 24°C, with 200 µl water/well, with a plate sealer,
and without shaking)
Evaporation
≤ 300 mg/plate after 1 hour (at 37°C, without plate sealer)
