Spectronics Corporation produces state-of-the-art products that technicians need to perform everyday essential laboratory applications.

One such product is Spectroline^® CX-20 high-intensity UV viewing cabinet. Designed for peak efficiency, it guarantees maximum ultraviolet irradiance and fluorescent contrast.

The CX-20 cabinet combines separate long-wave and short-wave 8-watt UV light sources with uniquely designed specular aluminum reflectors to assure maximum intensity and exceptional fluorescent contrast. An internal 25-watt white light bulb provides visible illumination.

The large UV viewing darkroom can be used with larger samples. It has a removable bottom panel, which can be easily placed over 20 x 20 gels and TLC plates, or to provide greater illumination, over a Spectroline UV transilluminator. The cabinet’s housing is made of vinyl-clad aluminum for maximum durability and a flexible, contoured viewing eyepiece with a UV-absorbing window for comfort and safety. The window also eliminates “blue haze” interference and increases contrast between the fluorescent area and the background.

Loading and unloading plates and gels is simple. Soft rubber curtains on both sides of the CX-20 allow easy entrance to its interior. Both the curtains and the door shield from external light. Users select UV wavelengths by pushing a button. All power buttons are conveniently color-coded to protect samples from unwanted light exposure.
