One standard HPE™ Electrode Lid is included in the HPE™ BlueHorizon™. Depending on the used gelformat, one can easily relocate the electrodes by bolting them down at seven possible positions. The two inner position are flexible. If SDS PAGE and IEF is performed on one HPE™ BlueHorizon™, we recommend to order one lid seperately and use them exclusively for each application.

Out position for large gel format: 2D HPE™ Large Gel Kits

Mid position for medium gel format: 2D HPE™ Double Gel Kits, 2D HPE™ Triple Gel Kits, 2D HPE™ BlotGel Kits, Excellent Gel Kits, SDS Gel Kits, CleanGels

Inner position for IEF gels: Focus Gels, PRECOTES™

Relocate one electrode to inner the other to center position to obtain short distance electrophoresis. More information here.

Also available, please inquire: Bidirectional lid (one cathode in center position, two anodes), 4-Electrode lid (2 anodes, 2 cathodes)

Turn your HPE™ BlueHorizon™ System into a 1st dimension IEF device for 2D electrophoresis

HPE™ electrode lid with IPG tray is used directly on the cooling plate of the HPE™ BlueHorizon™. Up to 12 IPG strips, e.g. SERVA IPG BlueStrips, can be focussed in parallel. To optain a fast and good result, the use of the BluePower™ 6000 IPG power supply is mandatory.

HPE™ BlueHorizon™ Double Deck – Includes two HPE™ BlueHorizon™

HPE™ BlueHorizon™ Triple Deck – Includes three HPE™ BlueHorizon™

HPE™ BlueHorizon™ Quadra Deck – Includes four HPE™ BlueHorizon™

To avoid tilting, the single decks must be connected with each other using Stabilizing Clamps and Stabilizing Feet must be assembled to the lowest deck. You find installation video in the YouTube section below.

If you do not like the idea of stacking single devices, we have a solution for you. The HPE™ BlueTower System holds four drawers in one chassis. An electric control recognizes loaded drawers, distributes electric parameters and LEDs indicate if loaded and running.

The qualification (IQ|OQ) of the HPE™ BlueHorizon™ System is offered as application-based procedure in combination with our certified precast gels. Maintainance and re-qualification (PQ) can be performed annually. We worked out four different maintenance contracts to meet your needs.
