XT Starter
XT Starter bench top cooling systems provide sample cooling or freezing without ice, electricity or batteries
- Open-platform ice-free cooler
- Fits most CoolRack and CoolSink modules
- Low profile and small footprint
- Keeps samples cold for up to 4 hours
- Monitoring of temperature performance
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
