The Techne TC‑3000 (models FTC3/02 and FTC3/05) is a compact, robust, and cost-effective PCR thermal cycler, ideal for personal use, educational settings, and basic molecular biology research. Despite its small footprint, it delivers high performance, reproducibility, and flexibility.
Key Features
Compact and Low Cost
One of the smallest and most affordable thermal cyclers on the market. Weighing ~5 kg with a footprint of just 33 × 17 cm, it's perfect for labs with limited space.
Available with interchangeable blocks:
FTC3/02: 25 × 0.2 mL microtubes
FTC3/05: 20 × 0.5 mL microtubes
Fast Peltier-Based Cycling
Efficient thermal transfer with rapid heating (up to 3.6 °C/s) and cooling (up to 2 °C/s) using advanced Peltier elements.
Heated Lid with Selectable Temperature
Adjustable from 100–115 °C, the heated lid minimizes condensation and reduces the risk of sample evaporation. It can be enabled or disabled as needed, making it suitable for a range of PCR tubes and strip types.
Unparalleled Block Uniformity
Delivers consistent results with ±0.1 °C block uniformity at 50 °C, ensuring optimal reproducibility across samples.
Wide Temperature Range
From 4 °C to 99 °C with precision control (±0.1 °C), supporting even demanding PCR protocols.
