hi naza, i wouldn't touch machines like that from the USA – their prices are too high and their tolerances are miserable. we bought a made-to-measure French press (including various stainless-steel cells) from a REAL hydraulics manufacturer near here https://watzhydraulik.de/en/ about 20 years ago, and everything's still working as perfectly as it did on the first day. best, j
Von: CCP4 bulletin board <[email protected]> Im Auftrag von Nazahiyah Rodzli Gesendet: Mittwoch, 24. April 2019 03:55 An: [email protected] Betreff: [ccp4bb] Off topic - French Press Accessories Dear All, Our lab is using the good old Thermo French press (FA-078A-picture attached) with a mini sample cell which has only 3.5 ml maximum sample capacity and planning to use for as long as it lasts. However, we are now in need of a bigger sample cell for our membrane protein work. Unfortunately, I have been made aware that Thermo has long since discontinued its support and delivery for such robust piece of equipment and for the obvious reason I couldn’t find a company locally that can provide this. Can anyone suggest if there’s a way I can get the larger sample cell (FA-032 40K Standard - second picture attached); or any lab that happens to have an extra piece of the accessory or no longer in use and willing to let go at a reasonable price?
