Bio-Rad C1000 Touch Thermal Cycler 96 Well Fast Reaction Module PCR Gradient
Item Condition
Used, fully functional. Self test and diagnostic tests PASSED. Good cosmetic condition.
Used unit in good cosmetic condition with no scratches, dents, or staining, and no corrosion or reagent spills inside the wells. Confirmed operational: the unit powers on, the touchscreen responds across the entire surface with no dead zones, and basic operation is normal. Total run time is 2,281 hours and the cooling fan runs without abnormal noise.
Operation Check
Power on OK. Display OK with full touchscreen response. Basic operation OK. Self test PASSED (LED, Fan, Beeper, Self Test, Protocol 1 all PASSED). Diagnostic Test all items PASSED on the single 96-well block. A test protocol ran to completion at 95C to 55C to 72C to 4C, with the sample reaching 4.0C which confirms normal cooling. The heated lid rose to the equivalent of 105C and locked correctly. Gradient function PASSED at 46-70C. Firmware: PXA270 1.102.548.801 / HC12 2.0.231.0.B / FX2 1.35.0.0. Please note: absolute temperature accuracy was not measured because a genuine Temperature Validation Kit was not available. USB memory recognition could not be confirmed (no drive was displayed in File Management) and the System Logs could not be viewed as a run was being retained, so both remain unverified.
Included Items
Main unit (serial CT024127) with 96-well reaction module (serial RN061871, 96 Well Fast equivalent), power cord, Quick Guide, Safety Manual, Declaration of Conformity, firmware update Quick Guide, reagent selection guide, 96-well compression pad, and 2 green plate frames.
