Sunrise™ absorbance reader

The flexible 12-channel Sunrise microplate reader supports a large variety of absorbance-based immunoassays – such as ELISAs – kinetic assays, colorimetric cell toxicity assays and other applications.

It features advanced temperature control up to 42 °C, and can measure a 96-well plate in under six seconds. Using four- or six-filter optics, or an advanced gradient filter, it enables wavelength selection in 1 nm increments. The Sunrise is designed to meet EU directive 98/79/EC for in vitro diagnostic products, and has a compact, space-saving design which can easily be integrated into Tecan liquid handling platforms, such as the Freedom EVOlyzer®.

Before any measurements are performed, a self-check system ensures that all major components of the Sunrise reader are fully functional. An optional QC Pac™ 2 package allows periodic verification of the correct functionality of all major components of the reader, and an IQ/OQ package is available to document instrument qualification results. For straightforward instrument control, the intuitive interface offers user-friendly data processing through Tecan’s Magellan™ software. Software tutorials with walk-through examples get you started easily, providing a quick start to Magellan data analysis and, for convenience, there is a choice of operating languages, including English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Chinese and Japanese. Based on Tecan’s advanced manufacturing system and using carefully selected components offering high reliability and performance, the Sunrise reader is supplied with a unique three-year warranty as standard.
