Bruker NEO™ 500 MHz NMR Instrument with Multinuclear Prodigy Cryoprobe

Bruker NEO™ 500 MHz NMR Instrument with Multinuclear Prodigy Cryoprobe

Windows 10 Workstation:

Bruker NMR Suite Software package for acquisition and processing multinuclear and multidimensional NMR data. The suite includes: TopSpin 4.0.3, ICON-NMR, and NMR-SIM.

Specifications:

  • UltraShield™ Plus Ascend™compact NMR magnet with 5.4 cm bore, operation field at 11.744 Tesla. Bruker Orthogonal Shim System (BOSS ™-3) with 36 gradient shims.
  • Two RF channels high performance digital NEO NMR console with two transceiver units (TRX1200). Each TRX1200 provides a full broad banded transmit and a full broad banded receive channel up to 1.2 GHz.
  • BSVT Variable Temperature Control Unit with Low Temperature accessory (Nitrogen Evaporator) and BCU-I, pre-cooling and stabilization accessory, for ultra-precise temperature control from near ambient conditions down to 0oC sample temperature.
  • Equipped with Z-only Gradient Assisted Spectroscopy (GRASP ™ II) accessory for the generation of gradients with up to 50 Gauss/cm.
  • SampleCase automatic sample changer with convenient sample access at user height. 24 easily accessed sample positions. Manual push-button sample exchange. Supports all common sample-tubes in spinners or shuttles.
  • Broadband Observe Multinuclear Prodigy Cryoprobe (5 mm sample diameter) with digital tuning covering the range from 15N to 31P, 1H and 19F. S/N gain 15N-31P: factor ~2 to 3x. S/N gain 1H: factor ~2x. Cold preamplifiers for all nuclei (BB/1H/2H). Z-gradient. 0°C–80°C sample temperature range. Automatic Tuning and Matching (ATM) capabilities.
