How does the Eco system provide a significantly higher level of thermal uniformity compared to other block-based systems?
Eco’s hollow thermal block is constructed of highly conductive silver and is filled with a thermal conductive fluid. The fluid is rapidly circulated through the block by paired agitators that are powered by high-efficiency electromagnetic motors. The constant circulation of fluid evenly distributes the heat throughout the block to remove the hot or cold spots typical of block-based instruments. This design allows for rapid temperature ramps and extreme thermal uniformity (± 0.1° C) well to well across the plate, with no edge effect.
