Overview

• With variable temperature and time settings, sealing conditions are easily optimized to produce a 100% seal, eliminating sample loss
• Plate and seal are placed on the holder, the "Operate" button pressed and the drawer automatically closes
• The sealing process is controlled by an electric mechanism; this unique feature eliminates operator variation, giving a consistent seal every time and reducing the damage caused to microplates by over-sealing
