Sold for spares/repair, ideal for maintenance-savvy labs.
The Fluidigm Helios CyTOF Mass Cytometer paired with a PolyScience WhisperCool Chiller is available for sale on behalf of a client, being decommissioned as it is surplus to the requirements of a university laboratory. The system is in good cosmetic condition but is offered for spares or repair due to a malfunctioning TOF pump, rendering it currently non-operational. Initially installed in September 2018, it was regularly maintained under an annual service contract, with the last preventive maintenance conducted on 21/04/2023. However, the 2024 service plan omitted preventive maintenance. The most recent engineer visit was on 05/06/2024 for a repair attempt. The package includes the Helios CyTOF Mass Cytometer, a PolyScience WhisperCool Chiller, and a PC setup equipped with CyTOF Sample Acquisition Software. Located in Belfast, UK, it is available for collection.
Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.
With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.
Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that alongside the offer.
Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.
