SPL Guard Florida thawing station

SPL Guard Florida is a thawing station designed to thaw multiple racks simultaneously, meeting the ever-increasing speed demands of automation, high-throughput screening, and biobanking. The Florida is the fastest thawing station on the market, capable of thawing up to 10 racks in as little as 9 minutes. This thawing station can be used either as a standalone unit or integrated into automated workstations such as liquid handlers.

Benefits

Provides users with the fastest thawing speed while enabling seamless transition of thawed samples into automated workflows.

When fully loaded with racks on the platform, the SPL Guard Florida thaws samples 60% faster than any other equipment on the market.

All samples undergo the same temperature treatment during thawing, ensuring consistent quality across all samples within a rack. The uniform thawing capability of the SPL Guard Florida reduces uneven thawing within a rack to less than 20%, whereas uneven thawing in other products on the market is typically above 50%.

Specifications

Thaws up to 10 ANSI/SLAS-format racks or microplates in as little as 9 minutes.

Seven high-performance fans (with a total airflow of 150 cfm) provide ample air power to rapidly and reproducibly thaw deeply frozen samples without introducing excess heat, and require no calibration or maintenance.

Equipped with a remote I/O port for easy integration with liquid handlers or automated systems.

Large, customizable thawing platform. The 10 ANSI/SLAS-format holders allow positioning in portrait, landscape, or a combination of both orientations.

Energy efficient.
