• Suitable for polypropylene, polyethylene and polystyrene plates
• Ability to seal PCR plates

Slide and Seal

Pre-cut sheets of surface modified aluminium or plastic film (~78 mm x 128 mm) are placed on the plate surface and the sliding drawer pushed closed to initate sealing program. There is no need for plate height spacing as the Ultraseal™ Lite has ability to seal from 9 mm to 48 mm tall plates. In under 10 seconds, plates are tightly sealed, automatically ejected and ready for downstream applications such as storage and transportation.

Smooth Operation

Constant time and pressure is key to obtaining consistent and a tight seal each and every time. The system operation is designed to efficiently and accurately align a heat-activated sealing medium to a microplate or tube rack top surface. Using the touch screen control pad, heat and time based variables can be easily programmed to optimise the quality, strength and integrity of sealing. The Ultraseal™ Lite has a temperature range of up to 200°C to suit a wide range of sealing films and foils.
