Here are the professional product specifications for the GEL-3120 UV Transilluminator (desktop analyzer), optimized for the visualization of nucleic acids and proteins in molecular biology applications.
Technical Specifications: UV Transilluminator GEL-3120
Optical & Performance Parameters
-
UV Wavelength: Dual or single-band configuration options, typically optimized at 302nm / 312nm (mid-range UV for optimal fluorescence with minimal DNA damage) or 365nm (long-wave for prep gels).
-
Filter Size / Viewing Surface: Standard $200 \times 200\text{ mm}$ or $150 \times 200\text{ mm}$ high-grade UV transmitting filter window.
-
Light Source: High-intensity UV tubes ($6 \times 8\text{W}$ or $4 \times 8\text{W}$ arrangement).
-
UV Intensity: Uniform distribution across the entire viewing window to ensure consistent gel imaging.
Design & Materials
-
Chassis Construction: Industrial-grade metal body coated with corrosion-resistant, anti-bacteria powder paint finish.
-
Protective Cover: Fully adjustable, transparent anti-UV safety shield attached via heavy-duty dual hinges to protect the user from direct UV exposure during operation.
-
Form Factor: Ultra-compact, low-profile desktop footprint designed to maximize bench space.
Controls & Usability
-
Power Switch: Front-mounted, heavy-duty rock switch with an integrated LED power-on indicator.
-
Gel Placement: High-contrast viewing area allows for seamless alignment and positioning of agarose or polyacrylamide gels.
Electrical Requirements
-
Input Voltage: Universal power compatibility available in 220V / 50Hz or 110V/60Hz variants.
-
Cooling System: Integrated quiet exhaust fan design to minimize heat buildup and prevent gel melting during extended analysis.
