AirClean AC600 series is available in three widths

AirClean Systems, based in Raleigh, NC, US says its microprocessor-controlled PCR workstations reduce the risk of sample contamination during DNA/RNA amplification.

The AC600 Series PCR workstations are available in 24in, 32in and 48in widths. Additional features include built-in 254nm ultraviolet lights for irradiation and HEPA filtration for a clean work area.

The UVTect microprocessor controller, which is standard on the 32in and 48in wide models, maintains airflow to provide a Class 100 work area during PCR preparation.

UVTect gives audible and visible alarms to alert the user of insufficient airflow, UV bulb changes, and HEPA filter changes. It also allows the operator to vary blower speed and digitally set irradiation timer and lab event timer to current application requirements.

The AC600 Series offer seamless UV-reflective Lexan construction with 360-degree visibility. In addition, each workstation features an interlocking sash with a safety switch that automatically turns off the ultraviolet light and activates blower and fluorescent light when the sash is raised.

The workstations are made in the US and shipped fully assembled.
