Product description

UV crosslinker with 254 nm wavelength, 5x8 W lamps, auto energy control, for DNA crosslinking and PCR contamination elimination.

The Hoefer UVC 500 UV Crosslinker provides a consistent and intense ultraviolet (UV) light source at a wavelength of 254 nm, ideal for DNA crosslinking, DNA nicking, rapid restriction site mapping, and testing RecA function. This UV exposure system is essential for molecular biology workflows involving PCR contamination control and ultraviolet sterilization, making it widely used in biotechnology and molecular diagnostics laboratories.

  • Equipped with five 8-W 254 nm shortwave UV dual bi-pin discharge tubes
  • Features an internal photo-feedback system that continuously measures delivered UV energy
  • Automatically shuts off UV lamps upon reaching programmed energy levels, ensuring reproducibility and safety
  • Automatically compensates for intensity variations due to lamp aging for consistent performance
  • Designed with compact outer dimensions (400 x 349 x 222 mm) and an inner exposure chamber of 254 x 305 x 127 mm
  • Operates at 220-240 V with a total weight of 7.5 kg

This unit is critical in biopharmaceutical production pipelines and widely adopted for applications requiring precise and uniform UV exposure, such as gene editing protocols and synthetic biology research. Its precise energy control enhances reproducibility in molecular cloning workflows and ensures effective sterilization in cleanroom and clinical diagnostic environments.

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.
