A compact, high-speed whole rack tube capper/decapper that can automatically remove, then recap or dispose of, TPE septum caps from a full 96 tube rack. Eliminating the need to manually remove the caps dramatically improves productivity and, as septum piercing is no longer required, the the user is able to make use of a wider range of liquid handling systems. The XDC-96 will also dispose of the caps or recap the same caps back into the same tubes. Manually recapping tubes after sampling is no longer required. Cycle time (decapping and recapping) is 15-30 seconds, depending on tube type. Compatible with most 96 format TPE caps (0.5ml, 0.75ml, 1.0ml and 1.4ml). Can be used either manually or in automated mode. When using as a stand-alone system, the simple to operate LCD touch screen allows set up, calibration and settings to be changed. The XDC-96PRO can also be fitted with a purge module that enables an inert gas of choice to be “layered” over the sample.
The X-CAP provides electronic semi-automatic sealing of microtubes and microplates in a 96 well format rack. Suitable for use with all 96 well format FluidX tubes with TPE septum caps, Micronic TPE capmats, Matrix Technologies sepraseals and Abgene sealing mats. When used with FluidX racks featuring TubeLock, the X-CAP is also able to automatically lock and unlock tubes within the rack. By using an adapter set, the X-CAP can be used to automatically unlock or lock tubes into racks as needed. Many FluidX racks are dual position allowing tubes to be locked into place for added security during use. Individual tubes can be simply pulled upwards to unlock and enable removal. For a faster approach the X-CAP is able to unlock (or lock) all tubes within and 96-format rack simultaneously. Cycle time is 20-30 seconds depending on tube type.
The E-CAPIT provides electronic semi-automatic sealing of microtubes and microplates in a 96 format rack. Suitable for use with FluidX EasyTrack caps, Micronic TPE capmats, Matrix Technologies sepraseals and Abgene sealing mats (Adapters may be required). Cycle time is approx. 10 seconds. The depth of the capping action is adjustable, with the use of spacer plates, ensuring efficient capping of all tube types. The E-CAPIT will seal both full and partial racks. Simply place a rack in the drawer with a capmat fitted loosely on top. Push the drawer in and press the start button. When the sequence is completed the drawer is opened and the rack removed.
