Engineered to provide even temperature distribution and rapid heating or cooling, the Cytomat 6003 D provides stable, homogeneous temperature conditions in a dry environment for optimal assay storage.  Unsurpassed temperature uniformity and stability ensure that your processes can be fully reproduced, providing you with the same high quality results every time.  With a plate capacity of up to 189 standard, SBS-sized plates and a temperature range of +4° C to +21°C the Cytomat 6003 D is suitable for a wide range of applications.  It can maintain a constant humidity level of just 3% rH.  This extremely dry environment minimizes absorption of water by hydrophilic compounds, e.g. DMSO, thereby reducing assay variance. 

The Cytomat 6003 D is easy to integrate, access or setup and is suitable for most laboratory environments. It has a single point of integration that creates an extremely robot-friendly design, as the robot only needs to be taught one position for plate retrieval. The small access door and Thermo Scientific Plate Shuttle™ system allow microplates to enter and exit the unit in seconds, significantly minimizing disruption to the controlled environment and virtually eliminating recovery times.  Plates are randomly accessed and can be retrieved in just 20 seconds.  The Plate Shuttle system and access door can handle all standard microplate formats including deep-well plates. 

A built in barcode reader can scan barcodes at any plate position inside the Cytomat 6003 D.  This minimizes plate movement and provides superior sample and plate tracking.
