hi alan, why do you want to put the thing in a cold cabinet? if you have protease problems, there are better ways to get rid of them than exploiting Q10. on the other hand, you'll increase viscosity and thus slow down the flow rates. also, the high humidity will reduce the lifetime of your Äkta dramatically (ours has been running almost continuously for 20 years at room temperature and is still going strong [thanks to tina!]). if you really to need to keep the sample at 4 °C, you can put the buffer(s) on ice and cool the column with a jacket. best jon

We only have one AKTA Pure there, with a fraction collector and the rest of the cabinet holds all the columns. Hope that helps Paula =================================== Dr Paula S.

Dear All Apologies for being wildly off topic, but we're trying to find a decent cold cabinet for 2x AKTA Pure + F9C + sample pump. Does anyone have any recommendations, especially for sliding door models?
