The TC-4000 is a device for accurately controlling the temperature profile of samples. It can be used for applications such as PCR1 and sequencing. It can cycle samples between 4°C and 99°C. The TC-4000 is programmed by means of programming templates and is operated via the front panel controls.
The TC-4000 thermal cycler enables precise temperature control for applications such as PCR and sequencing, cycling samples between 4 °C and 99 °C. The manual explains how to create, store, and run up to 80 temperature programs using the built‑in keypad and LCD.
Safety, installation, and operating procedures are detailed, including voltage selection, grounding, and required protective gloves. The guide also covers PC connectivity via RS‑232 or daisy‑chain cables, routine cleaning, block removal, and lists available accessories and replacement parts.
