New: The SPL Guard Arizona

Single Rack Thawing Station offers Uniform and Quick Sample Thawing

SPL Guard introduces a new single rack thawing station: the SPL Guard Arizona. With this unique instrument, lab researchers can thaw a complete rack from -80°C to 5°C in only 6 minutes. For the thawing of the samples, only ambient air is used.

The SPL Guard Arizona shows real-time temperature data on the display during the thawing cycle which provides insight in the process. The Arizona automatically stops thawing when the desired temperature is reached and confirms this with a beeping sound. This ensures that samples can be processed more quickly for downstream use.

The thawing station is a consistent and reproducible solution, compatible with a wide range of SBS-format racks from different brands, such as Micronic, Azenta Life Sciences, Thermo Matrix and LVL Technologies.

New adapter for the SPL Guard Florida

The SPL Guard Florida is a multi rack thawing station that can thaw up to 10 ANSI/SLAS racks at once. The SPL Guard Florida can thaw samples at a consistent rate and temperature and reduces uneven thawing to less than 20% per rack. It is the fastest system on the market and thaws 10 racks in as little as 9 minutes and is 60% faster than any other instrument on the market.

The SPL Guard Florida has several adapters to thaw the samples in different formats. There are adapters for ANSI/SLAS racks, 96-well format tubes, centrifuge tubes and the recently added adapter for IVD-Tubes. With the new adapter for IVD-Tubes, you can easily thaw your blood samples on the SPL Guard Florida as well. In the image below you can find the different adapters that you can buy with the SPL Guard Florida.

Coming soon: Adapter for IVD-Tubes

The SPL Guard Florida can thaw up to 10 racks in as little as 9 minutes and can be used as a stand-alone system or integrated into a robotic workstation like a liquid handler. When the SPL Guard Florida is fully loaded with racks, it can thaw samples 60% faster than any other instrument on the market. The SPL Guard Florida can also thaw samples at a consistent rate and temperature, guaranteeing sample quality and sample integrity for downstream research. When using the SPL Guard Florida to thaw samples, researchers can reduce uneven thawing to less than 20% per rack. For other instruments in the market, uneven thawing rates of more than 50% typically happen.

With the new adapter for IVD-Tubes, your blood samples can also be thawed with our Thawing Station.

Coming soon: The SPL Guard Arizona and Alaska

Next to the SPL Guard Florida, SPL Guard is going to expand their portfolio with the SPL Guard Arizona and Alaska soon.

SPL Guard Arizona

The SPL Guard Arizona is a rack thawing station which quickly thaws one SBS format rack or plate and works well within automation processes. The Arizona can measure the temperature of the sample and stops when the sample has reached their desired temperature.

SPL Guard Alaska

The SPL Guard Alaska helps with the gradually freezing of samples. It freezes samples with 1 degree Celsius per minute until -80℃ and can freeze 2 racks or plates at the same time.
