Sonicating water bath for Ion Torrent

[bbeitzel]

Our PGM was delivered last week, but it turns out that we need a lot of accessory equipment before they will come and set it up and do the training.

One last thing that I am looking for is a sonicating water bath, 2-3L tank, 80-160W, 40kHz. Anyone have recommendations?

We have validated two sonicating baths at Ion:

1) Branson Model 1510 (P/N 952-118)

2) Fisher Scientific Mechanical Ultrasonic Cleaners (P/N 15-335-20)

Generally, any model that has a 2-3L capacity and is 80-160W rated with a 40 kHz transducer should be sufficient.

I also encourage you to contact your local Field Applications Scientist, should you have any other questions about readying your site for PGM installation.

We bought the cheapest smallest (1.6L) one we could find. It is only to get an even dispersal of the Ion Sphere Particles before loading.

This is an Australian made brand. We got the 80TD model.
