Flexible solutions

New features based on user feedback:

  • New configuration has a decreased height compared to the BenchMark ULTRA
  • New integrated touchscreen reduces bottlenecks by allowing many functions to be done at the instrument
  • VSS 14.1 software allows for easier navigation of inventory management and ordering through a new filter as well as lot-to-lot validation on the same instrument
  • New proprietary waste management* solution degrades DAB (3,3'-diaminobenzidine) to less than 5 ppb meeting the most stringent municipality requirements for nonhazardous waste

*It is the responsibility of each customer to ensure compliance with all applicable laws and regulations related to the disposal of waste.
