Bio-Rad PowerPac HC Programmable Electrophoresis Power Supply 250V 3A 300W

The Bio-Rad PowerPac HC is a microprocessor-controlled electrophoresis power supply designed for *western blotting* and *high-throughput electrophoresis* applications common in molecular biology and biotechnology research. It delivers a programmable output range of 5–250 V, 0.01–3.0 mA current, and a maximum power of 300 W, supporting constant voltage, constant current modes with automatic crossover, ideal for molecular diagnostics and bioprocessing workflows requiring precise electrical control.

Key technical features include:

• 2-line, 16-character backlit LCD display for easy monitoring and multi-step method programming
• Adjustable timer from 1 minute to 99 hours 59 minutes, enabling long-duration electrophoresis runs essential in gene editing and synthetic biology protocols
• Four-pair recessed banana jack output terminals supporting parallel connections for versatile setups
• Comprehensive safety functions: no-load detection, rapid resistance change monitoring, overload, short circuit, overvoltage, and overtemperature protection to ensure reliable operation in clinical diagnostics and biomedical engineering environments
• Operational in variable lab conditions up to 40°C with 90% non-condensing humidity, supporting robust use across diverse research facilities

This power supply is critical in biopharmaceutical production pipelines where reproducible electrophoretic separation enables downstream analysis. Its precision and durability make it widely adopted among molecular biology researchers performing gel electrophoresis, nucleic acid analysis, and protein characterization in synthetic biology and biomanufacturing contexts.
