Hybridization ovens from the APT.line™

BFED series:
Hybridization ovens with shaker platform

BFED is just as ideally suited for reproducible incubation results as the closely related BFD unit, although it offers a little extra when it comes to versatility. The shaking platform is particularly suited for hybridization in bags, or for in situ hybridization. The shaking frequency is digitally adjustable.

1) up to 98 % of the set value

All specified technical data apply for standard equipment operating at an ambient temperature of + 25 °C (77 °F), with line voltage fluctuations of ± 10%. These typical average values for series equipment were determined in accordance with the BINDER factory standard. They are based upon the recommended distances from the inner chamber walls, namely 10% of height, width and depth. Differing ambient temperatures or variances in the design of individual equipment may produce different performance data.

We therefore recommend that equipment be calibrated and/or validated on a case-by-case basis when working at the extremes of the permissible ambient temperature range.
