Isothermal when temperature regulation is
not enabled
Range 4°C above ambient to 45°C when temperature
regulation enabled. The ambient temperature
must be > 20°C to achieve temperature regu-
lation at 45°C.
Resolution ±0.1°C
Accuracy ±1.0°C for microplate and cuvette chamber
±0.5°C at 37°C
15–30 minutes (measured on air) after
initiation of temperature regulation
4 sensors
Drift ±0.2°C (regulated)
Temperature regulation system is continu-
ously monitored and updated
Evaporation Plate lid required to minimize evaporative
cooling
Flat-bottom microplates with isolated wells
and lid
Control Front panel reports cuvette chamber temper-
ature only (temperature for microplate cham-
