Compact
Models CX-20 and CX-21
Valuable space is always at a premium in busy research facilities.
The CX-Series cabinets with integral UV and white light tubes were
designed with this problem in mind. These compact cabinets help you
make the most efficient use of limited laboratory space. Lightweight
and portable, they are easily moved and stored. |
CX-21
|
The
high-intensity Spectroline CX-20 and CX-21 cabinets
ensure maximum ultraviolet irradiance and fluorescent contrast because
they are innovatively designed for
peak efficiency. The Spectroline
CX-20 and CX-21 ultraviolet viewing cabinets not only offer superior
analysis of electrophoresis gels and TLC plates, but also a wide range
of other materials, including lipids, steroids, vitamins, porphyrins
and
chlorinated
hydrocarbons.
These systems offer the convenience of selecting UV wavelengths simply
by pushing a button. Both rugged units combine separate built-in long
wave and short wave UV light sources with specially designed specular
aluminum reflectors
to
ensure
maximum intensity and superior fluorescent contrast. When measured
at the cabinet floor, the long wave UV source provides a typical peak
intensity of 610 µW/cm2, while the short wave source
has an intensity of 500 µW/cm2. The short wave light
source features our unique LONGLIFE™ filter glass, which provides
higher initial UV intensity and substantially longer life than conventional
filters. For increased
versatility, an internal white light source provides visible illumination
if needed. All power buttons are colorcoded for easy-to-use irradiance
control to protect samples.
Loading and unloading of plates and gels is simple. Soft rubber
curtains on both sides of the CX-20 allow easy entrance to its
interior. A hinged metal door at the front of the CX-21 gives
you the convenience of using only one hand to manipulate specimens.
Both the curtains and the door assure complete shielding from external
light.
The housings are made of vinyl-clad aluminum for rugged durability.
The flexible, contoured viewing eyepiece has a UV-absorbing window
for maximum comfort and safety. The window also eliminates “blue
haze”interference and increases contrast between the fluorescent
area and the background. In addition, a safety interlock mechanism
on the CX-21 prevents operation of the cabinet unless the metal
door is fully closed. Thus, the user cannot be accidentally exposed
to
harmful UV radiation. |
CX-20
|
CX-20 Shown with optional
Select Series™ transilluminator
|
The CX-20 and CX-21 cabinets have removable bottom
panels so they may be easily placed over large objects or, to provide
even greater illumination, over a powerful Spectroline UV transilluminator.
Both cabinets are designed for use with any of the 23 models of Spectroline
transilluminators, which are available in short, medium and long
wave UV versions. |
