Bruker BioSpin Announces the
World's Highest Field Actively-Shielded NMR Magnet at 950 MHz
Pacific Grove, CA, Apr. 25: At the
Experimental NMR Conference (ENC),
Bruker BioSpin
Corporation announces the 950 US2 – the world’s first
actively-shielded 950 MHz superconducting magnet. With the new 950 US2,
Bruker BioSpin breaks its own previous world record for actively-shielded NMR
magnets established two years ago with the introduction of the 900 US2.
The 950 US2 combines Bruker BioSpin’s advanced,
proprietary UltraShield™ active-shielding and UltraStabilized™
sub-cooling technologies. The new 950 US2 magnet system
delivers higher sensitivity and spectral dispersion, yet it has the same size
cryostat and same cryogenic performance as the 900 US2. The
full line of Bruker BioSpin CryoProbes™ is compatible with this new
950 US2,
enabling users to benefit from the increased sensitivity of the cryogenically
cooled probes.
Remarkably, the 950 US2 features
the same 5 Gauss stray field as the 900 US2, making it very
convenient to site due to its relatively small footprint. The complete Avance
II NMR system with the 950 US2 magnet occupies an overall
footprint of less than 600 square feet, compared to the 3,600 square feet of lab
space that is required for an unshielded 950 MHz magnet.
“We are very proud of our advanced UltraShield
technology,” commented Dr. Gerhard Roth, Managing
Director of Bruker BioSpin’s Magnet Division. “The new 950 US2
will further improve ultra-high field NMR performance, with very reasonable
siting costs and enhanced siting flexibility in labs with multiple NMR systems.
Moreover, our 950 US2 features enhanced suppression of
external field disturbances, further improving the stability and overall NMR
performance in challenging environments.”
Bruker BioSpin is now accepting orders for its new
950 US2 magnet, with a delivery time of four to eight months
for the first orders. The difference in price between the 950 US2
and the 900 US2 is an additional US$1.95 million.
