Introducing the HeatSync™ range for IonOpticks columns
The perfect companion to make the world’s best chromatography even better
Temperature control is essential for achieving reproducible, high-quality results in high-performance proteomics analysis.
Designed by our team of researchers, for researchers, and recognised internationally by the prestigious Good Design Awards, this integrated heating ecosystem eliminates unnecessary complexity while extending temperature control to previously unsupported workflows. With sustainable design principles and an intuitive interface, the HeatSync™ range provides proteomics laboratories with tools that simply work, allowing your focus to remain where it belongs: on research rather than equipment operation.
The HeatSync™ range of temperature control solutions is a purposefully designed companion that enhances what our columns can achieve. Comprising four perfectly synchronised components:
HeatSync™ Controller
HeatSync™ Column Heater
HeatSync™ Rapid 5 cm Column Housing
HeatSync™ Rapid 5 cm Regulator
The HeatSync™ Controller lets you focus on the research, not the settings.
Supporting equipment should enhance your workflow, not complicate it. Designed by our research team who understand the daily challenges of proteomics laboratories, we’ve deliberately stripped away unnecessary software and complex interfaces.
Plug-and-play.
More than ever.
The controller features an intuitive rotary-touch display showing actual column temperature across multiple channels simultaneously. Its minimalist design supports all IonOpticks XT and XS columns with fewer components and connections than conventional systems.
Award-winning,
simple design.
Powering up immediately, automatically recognising connected components such as the HeatSync™ Regulator, and establishing optimal heating parameters intuitively, it simply works. Plug-and-play just got more plug-and-play.
Single button.
Dual control.
The HeatSync™ Controller’s multi-channel capability expands throughput without sacrificing control, allowing simultaneous management of multiple separation pathways with individual temperature precision.
HeatSync™ Rapid Column Housing. You asked. We delivered.
Designed to integrate with both the Nanospray Flex and EASY-Spray sources, the HeatSync Rapid Column Housing enables temperature control for Aurora Rapid 5 cm columns.
From more stable results to higher throughput, heating shorter columns brings the benefits of temperature control to applications where it was previously unavailable, opening entirely new analytical possibilities.
Now you can heat columns shorter than 8cm, at the source.
Heating shorter columns reduces back pressure while increasing throughput and ensuring more stable results. This allows more samples to be processed in less time, while maintaining separation quality and extending the life of your columns.
Included in all HeatSync™ Starter Packs.
The HeatSync™ Rapid Column Housing’s reusable design reflects our commitment to sustainability in laboratory practices. For researchers seeking both speed and reproducibility, this accessory, included in every HeatSync™ Stater Pack, transforms what our columns can achieve, enabling workflows previously impossible without controlled heating.
HeatSync™ Column Heater Optimise performance. Reduced waste.
The HeatSync™ Column Heater maintains optimal column temperature for all IonOpticks XT and XS columns, preserving chromatographic performance from injection to detection. The temperature displayed on the controller is the actual temperature experienced by your column – what you set is what you get.
As a separate solution that’s not integrated directly into the column housing, you don’t need to discard the heater every time you change columns. Simply remove the column and insert the next one – the HeatSync™ Column Heater is ready for your next experiment. Save the time and money that’s best spent on your research.
The foundation for reproducible results
The HeatSync™ accessory range represents our commitment to enhancing the performance of IonOpticks columns through thoughtfully designed supporting technology. The result is a sustainable, simplified heating ecosystem that extends the capabilities of your Aurora Series® columns to new applications while eliminating unnecessary complexity.
