Known for their exceptional performance and durability, Spectroline® transilluminators are designed to deliver optimal UV intensity and extremely uniform UV emission to guarantee clear and reproducible results.
Spectroline transilluminators provide maximum fluorescent response for nanogram sensitivity with minimal UV damage to samples with a variety of choices in wavelength, wattage, filter size and variable intensity controls. Each unit offers high intensity, uniform UV emission and cool operation. They feature a wide variety of UV filter glass sizes to accommodate different sizes of gels and blots, as well as rugged construction and simple operation.
When working with UV models, attention should be given to the age of the UV tubes, as this will affect the sample fluorescent signals. As the UV tubes age in any transilluminator, their output steadily declines making faint bands more difficult to see. This can result in lack of positive results and incorrect densitometric measurements. Regular replacement of UV tubes is suggested, particularly for transilluminators that are shared or heavily used.

Features
• LONGLIFE™ UV Filter Glass
Inhibits solarization up to 50 times longer than traditional UV filters.
• Easy-to-Clean, Rugged Housing
Composed of durable, stainless-steel filter frame welded to scratch-resistant painted metal
• Powerful Cooling Fan
Maintains low filter glass temperature to eliminate surface heat buildup
• Minimal UV Damage
312nm and 365nm models virtually eliminate transmission of 254nm radiation
• Special Diffusing Screen (D)
Ensures superior surface uniformity by eliminating striations caused by the contours of the tubes; provided on all 312nm and 365nm models
• Variable-Intensity Control (V)
Provides continuous intensity adjustments from 100% down to 20% for maximum sample preparation time and sensitivity
• On/off Switch (S)
Controls power to the unit
• Automatic Shut-Off Timer (T)
Prevents UV overexposure; doubles as on/off switch
• Hinged UV-Blocking Cover (C)
Adjustable to a comfortable angle providing the end user with a clear view of surface access for sample manipulation. Eliminates the need for additional UV-absorbing clothing or face wear and protects the filter surface from accidental damage

Bi-O-Vision™ Series, UV/White Light Combination

• 8-watt units provide standard UV intensity • Side-by-side UV/white filter sections • Available in fixed and variable intensity models • Housing dimensions (W x L x H): 18.5" x 19.25" x 4", 34.3 x 48.9 x 10.2cm • Available in 120V/60Hz, 230V/50Hz, 240V/50Hz and 100V/50-60Hz

Bi-O-Vision UV/white light transilluminators offer both medium wave UV (312nm) and white light for dual-light convenience in one box. Each side of the sample platform fits samples up to 8" x 8" (20.3 x 20.3 cm). For added safety, only UV or white light can be selected with single UV/Off/VIS toggle switch.
The TD-1000R model offers fixed-intensity while the TVD-1000R offers variable-intensity control of either UV or white light. These units are continuously adjustable from 100% down to 50%.


Select™ Series, Single/Dual-Wavelength UV

• Economical 8-watt units provide standard UV intensity • Fixed-intensity 312nm models accommodate a variety of sample sizes • Dual-wavelength models include TD-series • Housing dimensions (W x L x H): 12” x 13.25” x 3.5”, 30.5 x 33.7 x 8.9cm • Available in 120V/60Hz, 230V/50Hz, 240V/50Hz and 100V/50-60Hz

Select Series transilluminators offer all the features and benefits of our standard fixed-intensity series but designed with a costeffective housing. Dual wavelengths, in combinations of 365/312nm, 312/254nm and 365/254nm provide broader UV applications. Single and dual-wavelength models accommodate a variety of sample gel or blot sizes, with rugged construction and simple operation. All Select™ series units feature hinged UV-blocking cover to protect the user from radiation and UV filter glass to inhibit solarization.


Slimline™ Series, Single Wavelength UV

• Ideal for mini gels and samples • Cost effective, (4) 8-watt UV tubes • Fixed-intensity models include TE-series in various wavelengths • Housing dimensions (W x L x H): 11.5” x 14” x 2.5”, 29.2 x 35.6 x 5.7cm • Available in 120V/60Hz, 230V/50Hz, 240V/50Hz and 100V/50-60Hz

Slimline Series™ transilluminators feature a small filter glass that measures 4.3” x 5.5” (11 x 14 cm), making them ideal for working with mini gels. This unit’s slim profile uses only four UV tubes − reducing operating cost and UV exposure, while still delivering performance comparable to our standard models.
