Plate formats

Typically supports 6- to 1536-well microplates, with automatic plate loading options commonly found on units of this type.

Detection modes

Multimode readers like the Envision 2105 typically offer fluorescence intensity, luminescence, absorbance, time-resolved fluorescence, and fluorescence polarisation.

Throughput

High-throughput screening capabilities are standard, with rapid reading times per well, often under a second for single-mode reads.

Temperature control

Integrated temperature control, typically ambient +5°C to 45°C, is common for temperature-sensitive assays.

Power supply

Units of this class commonly operate on standard laboratory power, typically 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz.

Footprint

For this class of equipment, dimensions are typically in the range of 50-70 cm (width) x 60-80 cm (depth) x 30-40 cm (height), requiring dedicated bench space.
