PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Ultrasonic processing.
Matched to your sample.

The Q55 provides straightforward ultrasonic processing in a compact benchtop format. It is intended for routine cell disruption and other small-volume applications where a simple system is appropriate.

A thumb switch provides manual control, and continuous operation is also available. Three probe sizes support different small-sample needs. The standard system includes a 1/8 in probe, generator, converter, cables and wrench set.

A support stand, sound enclosure and thermoconductive tube racks are available for fixed-position sample handling and temperature-sensitive workflows.
