Product description

Beckman Coulter PA 800 Plus capillary electrophoresis system with UV and diode array detectors for protein, glycan and biomolecule analysis.

The Beckman Coulter PA 800 Plus capillary electrophoresis system is an automated electrophoresis platform for quantitative analysis of proteins, biopharmaceuticals, glycans and other biomolecules. Applications include CE-SDS protein purity and molecular-weight analysis, capillary zone electrophoresis, capillary isoelectric focusing and glycan profiling.

This unit includes UV and diode-array detector modules. The diode-array detector provides wavelength selection from 190 to 600 nm. The original USB licence dongle, PA 800 Plus Empower Driver, Empower GPIB interface and NI-488.2 driver support instrument control and data acquisition through Waters Empower chromatography data software. Sample handling supports universal vials and 96 well plates.

The system was manufactured in December 2012 and is used. It has good cosmetic condition with normal signs of previous use. Thorough testing was not possible because the required Empower software was unavailable.

Beckman Coulter PA 800 Plus Capillary Electrophoresis System

The used system was manufactured in December 2012. It is in good cosmetic condition with normal signs of previous use. Thorough operational testing was not possible because the required Empower software was unavailable. Only the components shown or specifically mentioned are included.

What these specifications mean

The UV and diode-array detector combination supports different detection requirements within capillary electrophoresis methods. The UV detector uses a standard 214 nm filter and provides six additional filter positions. The diode-array detector covers 190 to 600 nm and supports wavelength selection for methods requiring spectral flexibility.

Liquid capillary cooling supports separation-temperature control across the specified capillary temperature range. The sample system accommodates either universal vials or a 96 well plate, which supports both vial-based analysis and plate-based sample preparation.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
