Configure the Sunrise plate reader to your needs

Take advantage of the modular design of the Sunrise plate reader and tailor it to your application needs.

Choose your optic configuration

  • Four-filter optics – interchangeable four-position filter slides for typical routine applications, offering a total capacity of 32 filters.
  • Six-filter optics – with a capacity of six filters per filter slide, this option is especially useful for ELISA automation or integration onto a liquid handling platform, enabling several assays to be performed without exchanging filter slides.
  • Tunable wavelength optics – a gradient filter slide providing immediate access to a choice of 301 wavelengths for maximum application flexibility and wavelength scanning.

Temperature control

The optional temperature control function is ideal for enzyme kinetic studies up to 42 °C.

It combines top and bottom heating to minimize evaporation and provides a good temperature distribution across the plate, using

  • A Peltier-based temperature control element to heat the plate from the bottom
  • An additional heating element above the plate

301 wavelengths on board

The tunable wavelength option delivers maximum application flexibility on one filter slide.

It includes an advanced gradient filter for readings in the visible range of the spectrum, from 400-700 nm, providing

  • Free selection of 301 wavelengths in increments of 1 nm
  • Maximum application flexibility
  • Spectral scanning to help identify a suitable measurement wavelength

12-channel optics for fast measurements

An entire 96-well plate can be processed in less than six seconds.

The advanced design of the Sunrise plate reader includes

  • An additional reference channel for optimizing the light intensity
  • Auto switch-off of the light source when not in use to extend lifetime
