Item specifics
Condition: Used  

96-Well GeneAmp PCR System 9700 Thermocycler w/ Gold-plated 96 well block

Not in proper working condition

Calibration temperature failure: failed to reach 4 degrees Celsius

error message: "fatal error- block shut off by hardware"

UNIT IS SOLD AS-IS

 

On auction is a used ABI 9700 GeneAmp PCR system.  I ran a standard temperature verification method and the method successfully 3 out of 4 times.  The last time I ran the method it gave me an error: "fatal- block shut off by hardware".  So it looks like it happens sporadically. I also included pictures on the temperature verification and error.  Machine has been used for about 2 years until it failed temperature calibration.  Unit comes with a gold-plated block and plug.  Original manual is not included, but can be found from the Applied Biosystems' website.  A product description is also listed below for reference.  Unit is sold as-is.


Shipping is $35 within continential United States.   Hawaii and Alaska add additional $20.

GeneAmp® PCR System 9700 is specifically designed for the amplification of nucleic acids. The GeneAmp® PCR System 9700 consists of a base module and one of many interchangeable sample block modules. The 96-well GeneAmp® PCR System 9700 is designed for use with 0.2 ml reaction tubes or 96-well reaction plates for all of your routine PCR applications.

  • Interchangeable sample block modules for greater flexibility
  • Gold-plated silver blocks for high speed 5°C/sec average heating/cooling rate of block

Aluminum Block for Flexibility
The 96-Well GeneAmp® PCR System 9700 can now be used with Gold-plated Silver and Aluminum Sample Blocks Modules. The aluminum block has been designed for routine use of PCR reactions and cycle sequencing in a conventional 8 X 12 well format. This allows the 96-well 9700 system to be used in 9600 emulation mode and standard mode.


Gold Block for High Performance

The gold-plated silver sample block has been engineered for maximum performance and durability, utilizing a rapid heat transfer design of electroformed silver to maximize heating/cooling rates and goldplating for maximum durability. This allows the gold-plated silver 96-well 9700 system to be used in MAX Mode (5°C/sec average heating/cooling of block) and 9600 emulation mode.
