Common questions

What does the -E at the end of a Benchmark catalog number mean?

It orders the instrument with a European two-prong plug. On 115V models the -E version is built for 230V / 50 Hz (BV1000-E, BV1005-E and C2417-E); on universal 100–240V models only the plug changes (BSH200-E, BT302-E and C1008-B-E). The Plug filter on each category shows one or the other.

Does the BSW02 block fit the myBlock Mini?

No. BSW02 holds 48 × 0.2 mL or 6 PCR strips and is Benchmark's standard 2 × 3 × 3.75 in block for myBlock, isoBlock and Benchmark dry baths. The myBlock Mini (BSH200) takes a smaller 1.85 × 2.8 × 1.25 in block.

MyFuge Mini or MC-24 Touch: which centrifuge do I need?

The MyFuge Mini (C1008-B) is for quick spin-downs: 6,000 rpm (2,000 × g), 8 × 1.5/2.0 mL plus a PCR-strip rotor, and it runs whenever the lid is closed. The MC-24 Touch (C2417) is a programmable high-speed microcentrifuge: 13,500 rpm (16,800 × g), 24 × 1.5/2.0 mL and two PCR strips in its COMBI-Rotor, with timed and stored runs.

BenchMixer or Mortexer?

Both run the same drive at up to 3,200 rpm in touch or continuous mode. The BenchMixer (BV1000) has a standard cup head for one tube at a time; the Mortexer (BV1005) adds Benchmark's Multi-Head, which keeps the cup and also holds up to eight microtubes, so a batch vortexes together.

Can I search by Benchmark catalog number?

Yes. Type it in the search bar at the top of this page; spacing and dashes are ignored, so c2417e finds C2417-E, and pressing Enter on an exact catalog number opens that product.

Benchmark Scientific products are listed under Benchmark's own catalog numbers. The filters in each category are drawn from Benchmark's published specifications, so they differ between categories.
