VCX-500A-110 Series
500-watt Ultrasonic Processor with Cup Horn, Chiller & Sound Enclosure
The VCX-500CCE-110 provides a full system for indirect sonication. The cup horn can process multiple sealed tubes or vessels at one time without contact with an ultrasonic probe. This method eliminates cross contamination, sample foaming, overheating and aerosolization which can all occur when using a probe. Most importantly the cup horn enables samples under 200μl to be effectively processed.
The Cup Horn is attached to the Converter in place of a Probe, and filled with water. Microtubes containing samples are placed inside using specially designed tube holders. Ultrasonic energy is transferred through the water and into the sample tubes. Both of our standard 1.5mL tube holders are included with the Cup Horn.
Inlet and outlet ports enable cold water to be circulated within the cup, inhibiting heat build up during extended operation. Use of the chiller is highly recommended and due to the high noise level created by the cup horn, a sound abating enclosure is required.
Note: Selecting the appropriate size and type of sample tube will greatly improve results. Contact Sonics for application assistance.
