FAQs:
What is the function of the safety interlock lid?
It prevents electrical connection until the lid is properly aligned, ensuring user safety.
Are these systems compatible with standard power supplies?
Yes, they are designed to work with EPS-series or any standard lab electrophoresis power supply.
Is gel sealing tape required for casting?
No, the integrated casters eliminate the need for tape, making the process leak-proof and simple.
Are the gel trays UV-transparent?
Yes, the removable trays allow for direct observation under a UV transilluminator.
What is the typical buffer requirement?
It ranges from 400 ml (HE-90) to 1000 ml (HE-120/220) depending on the model.
Can I run multiple gels simultaneously in the HE-90? Yes, it supports stacking up to 4 gels in a single run.
How many samples can the HE-90 handle at once?
Up to 204 samples depending on the comb and gel configuration.
What is the maximum voltage for the HE-120?
It supports up to 500 V, ideal for faster separation.
Why choose the HE-120 over the HE-90?
The HE-120 offers 4 different tray sizes, providing maximum flexibility for different sample volumes.
What makes the HE-220 "High-Throughput"?
It is specifically designed to run 96 samples at once, matching standard PCR plate formats.
Is the HE-220 compatible with multi-channel pipettes?
Yes, the 25-tooth combs are perfectly spaced for 12-channel pipettes.
What comb thicknesses are available?
We offer 0.75, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 mm options across the series
How do I prevent the gel tray from drifting during a run?
The HE-220 includes a fixed bracket to secure the tray during high-voltage runs.
What is the maximum sample volume per well?
It ranges from 6.5 μl (fine combs) up to 550 μl (preparative combs on HE-120).
Are the electrodes replaceable?
Yes, the pure platinum electrodes are designed for long life but are removable if maintenance is needed.
How long is a typical run time?
For standard agarose gels, it ranges between 30 and 45 minutes.
Are the units resistant to high-temperature buffers?
The high-quality polycarbonate construction is designed to withstand standard buffer temperatures without warping.
What is included in a standard set?
A set typically includes the cell, lid, power cables, various combs, and the specialized gel caster.
Can I customize the comb configurations?
Yes, we offer various teeth counts to meet specific laboratory throughput requirements.
How is the product packaged for international shipping?
We use reinforced, shock-absorbent packaging to ensure the delicate acrylic components arrive intact.
