XT Starter

XT Starter bench top cooling systems provide sample cooling or freezing without ice, electricity or batteries

Overview

CoolBox ice-free systems are bench top cooling workstations that provide sample cooling or freezing without ice, electricity or batteries
CoolBox systems are versatile and accommodate a variety of sample formats and temperatures
The modular design enables the use of CoolRack and CoolSink thermo-conductive sample modules to hold microfuge tubes, cryogenic vials, PCR tubes or plates, assay plates and more

Key Features

Secure sample preparation

Operates without ice, batteries or electricity
Keeps samples at a uniform 0.5 to 4.0°C for up to 4 hours
The built-in 1-8ºC temperature indicator provides visual assurance of operational temperature while working

Broad compatibility

Versatile: accommodates most CoolRack and CoolSink modules
Low profile and small footprint ideal for use in the hood especially in keeping temperature sensitive solutions cold
To extend the cooling duration, keep an additional XT Cooling Core in the freezer and replace the core as needed

How it works: ease of use

Freeze the XT Cooling Core in -20°C freezer
Place frozen core in base
Rest CoolRack or CoolSink module on core
Module will equilibrate and maintain temperature via thermo-conductivity
To extend the cooling duration, keep an additional XT Cooling Core in the freezer and replace the core as needed
