Automated focused ultrasonicator delivering precise DNA/RNA shearing and chromatin fragmentation for molecular diagnostics workflows.
The Covaris R230 Focused Ultrasonicator is a high-throughput automated instrument specifically engineered for precise and reproducible DNA shearing, RNA fragmentation, and chromatin shearing, essential for next-generation sequencing (NGS) library preparation and molecular diagnostics. This advanced ultrasonicator employs Adaptive Focused Acoustics (AFA) technology to ensure uniform cavitation distribution across up to 16 samples simultaneously, supporting sample volumes ranging from 5 to 200 µL, with recommended batch sizes of 96 or 384 wells compatible with robotic liquid handling decks.
Key technical features include:
The unit includes essential consumable compatibility such as AFA-TUBE strips and plates (TPX, PP, PS), and microTUBE formats designed for molecular biology and biomanufacturing applications. Consumables are sold separately and are application-specific. This equipment is critical in synthetic biology research and biopharmaceutical production pipelines where consistent nucleic acid shearing quality influences downstream analytical accuracy.
The R230 is suited for biotechnology professionals conducting molecular cloning workflows, live-cell genomic assays, and other demanding clinical applications due to its precise power calibration, automated sample capacity, and robust construction engineered for continuous laboratory operation. It is widely adopted in molecular diagnostics and biomedical engineering settings requiring reproducible fragmentation protocols essential for high-quality NGS libraries.
This product is supplied fully tested with a 120-day warranty in the continental US and 60 days internationally, including remote instrument setup and training options. The package contains the R230 ultrasonicator, WCS 3.0, control computer with SonoLab software, and all necessary communication and power cables.
Ideal for researchers and laboratory buyers committed to reliable, scalable nucleic acid sample preparation, the Covaris R230 Focused Ultrasonicator enhances throughput without compromising the precision needed for advanced genomics and synthetic biology research.
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.
With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.
Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.
Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.
Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.
We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
Tell us what you need and a scientist finds it for you, usually within the hour.
