PX Scanner (CAT#: AM-LE-0826-Y)

The PX Scanner is manufactured by Agilent Technologies. The device is contained in a completely interlocked radiation protection cabinet, consisting of an xy-omega goniometer and crystal plate holder, a high-intensity X-ray source and a large effective diameter of 135 mm. The area CCD detector is composed of an area of about 0.5m2 (excluding independent monitoring station). Combined with an optical imager and X-ray diffraction system, the PX scanner allows you to visualize, identify and automatically screen an unlimited number of crystals without removing them from the growing environment.

• Used to study crystals that are too small and too fragile to be extracted
• Compatible with all SBS porous plates
• Automatic screening of crystals to speed up results
• Interactive touch screen control and integrated flat bar code reader for high-throughput screening
• Comparison of crystal diffraction quality
• Digital microscope and cool LED lighting, using proprietary image processing algorithms to visually identify droplets and crystals
• Early identification of crystalline materials
• Automatic multi-well plate stage, can accurately locate the candidate crystal in the X-ray beam
• Identification of salt in protein crystals
• X-Y-OMEGA goniometer with a maximum inclination of 6°
• Vertical high-intensity Nova microfocus source and 135 mm CCD detector
• CrystalEyes control and processing software
• Determine the best crystal growth conditions
• Independent, compact design requires only standard main power and water supply
