Porvair Sciences has introduced the MiniSeal Plus heat sealer designed to operate with a high force ensuring integrity sealing of deep well or irregularly shaped microplates
The company claims that unlike larger and more expensive automated sealers the MiniSeal Plus does not require a compressed air supply to operate.
Controlled through a splash-proof keyboard, a MiniSeal Plus can be installed within minutes of unpacking.
The compact footprint, about the size of a sheet of A4 paper, means that MiniSeal Plus will fit anywhere - on a lab bench or inside a fumehood if required.
Rapid heat-up time, a real-time display of the sealing head temperature, automatic plate head detection and pre-cut sealing films combine to simplify your microplate sealing.
In addition to accommodating regular microplates the MiniSeal Plus comes as standard with two plate adapters that also enable sealing of deep well and PCR plates.
The MiniSeal Plus is capable of producing an accurate and tight seal on any standard, deep well or PCR microplate from 3 to 48mm in height.
Offering adjustable temperature heat-sealing from 50C up to 200C - MiniSeal is able to operate optimally with most foil and film seals.
