TurboCycler 3 Thermal Cycler

TurboCycler 3 is the most powerful high-throughput PCR thermal cycler in its class. Run 3 independent experiments (3×48 samples) simultaneously with unmatched flexibility. Fast gradient optimization and advanced ramp rate control tailor PCR conditions for maximized efficiency. These features unite to boost your research throughput.

Features and Benefits

Why Do Researchers Choose TurboCycler 3

 

Triple-Block Flexibility

Triple-Block Flexibility

Three distinct PCR protocols can be run at the same time, perfect for multi-user environments and diverse experiments with low samples.

High-Throughput Efficiency

High-Throughput Efficiency
Maximize throughput with up to 3 x 48 x 0.1/0.2 ml samples.

Fast Gradient Optimization

Fast Gradient Optimization

PCR conditions across the three independent blocks are easily adjusted and range from 30 to 100 °C with a maximum span of 30 °C.

Advanced Ramp Rate Control

Advanced Ramp Rate Control

Ramp rate can be adjusted from 0.1 to 5.0 °C/sec, to accommodate different assays including CRISPR-related experiments.

Intuitive Operation

Intuitive Operation

Effortless programming on a large 10.1” color touch screen with a user-friendly interface.

Continuous Reliability: Zero Downtime

Continuous Reliability: Zero Downtime

Each of the three independent block modules can be independently calibrated to ensure uninterrupted operation during maintenance.

Industry-first 8-zone gradient

Precise 8-zone temperature optimization per block, accelerating protocol development for research labs and reagent manufacturing.

Continuous Reliability

Independent blocks ensure uninterrupted operation during maintenance.

Customer Testimonials

 

Save time when running a PCR

“Our team uses the turbocycler 3 to run 3 independent experiments at the same time, which helps to save time in our daily work. Also, we emphasise as a key benefit the gradient optimization, touchscreen, and its intuitive program.”
