Oxford Instruments Offer Superconducting Magnets
Directly Through New NMR Magnets Direct
Oxford, July 18:
Oxford Instruments (LONDON
OXIG) has announced the launch of a new program for direct sales of its
award winning NMR magnet systems at the EUROMAR conference in Veldhoven,
Netherlands. For the first time, the NMR Magnets Direct program will allow
customers to benefit from buying a wide range of affordable, world-class
superconducting magnets directly from Oxford Instruments.
In response to market demand for higher and
higher field strengths to analyze larger and more complex molecules than ever
before, Oxford Instruments is providing the opportunity to purchase
award-winning NMR magnets straight from the manufacturer, at significantly
reduced prices, thus significantly reducing the overall system cost.
High performance magnet technologies from Oxford
Instruments are a critical element in NMR operating environments, enabling
superb quality, high-resolution, chemical, life science and drug discovery
experiments. An NMR magnet from Oxford instruments will operate perfectly for
decades and during its lifetime may be integrated to a number of different
spectrometer systems. A system purchase decision is usually based on a number of
specification related parameters, and thus we believe customers will welcome the
opportunity to obtain the right magnet for their particular application. All
Oxford Instruments magnets are compatible with any spectrometer, thus allowing
the customer to make an independent, objective decision.
“We decided to launch the NMR Magnets Direct
program as part of our dedication to meet and exceed the ever-widening demands
of the NMR community, and in response to recent customer feedback,” said Damian
Stone, Global Sales & Marketing Manager of, Oxford Instruments Magnet Technology
Group. “For over 40 years, our company has been designing and developing magnets
to meet the experimental demands of the NMR community. Today, Oxford Instruments
magnets are at the heart of over six thousand NMR installations throughout the
world.”
All magnet systems provided by NMR Magnets Direct
will undergo a thorough program of installation performance testing. Magnet
system integration will be achieved through a comprehensive site evaluation and
on-site NMR tests ensuring that high-resolution NMR criteria are met.
“At the time of installation we will run a
comprehensive set of NMR tests to prove all magnet specific criteria are met. As
a supplier to all of the major NMR vendors, this is exactly what we have done at
renowned laboratories around the world,” continued Damian Stone. “Oxford
Instruments will, for the first time, be able to offer customers direct access
to our unequalled, high-performance magnet technologies.
Some of the new, innovative products available
for direct purchase include the EshieldTM 600 MHz NMR magnet, combining state of
the art shielding technology and compact dimensions for siting in restricted
locations. The new AS800 MHz (AS800) and 950 MHz magnet systems are also
available, respectively offering ultra-compact dimensions and the highest
commercially available magnetic field strength for NMR.
Oxford Instruments is a company which has enjoyed
a number of world firsts including the first commercially available system at
every field strength from 200-600 MHz, production of the first 800 MHz operating
at 4.2K, and the first commercially available 900 MHz superconducting magnet.
Through the NMR Magnets Direct purchase scheme,
Oxford Instruments will enable NMR users to access the technology that led to
these world firsts, and help facilitate the advancement of NMR for the
scientists that use it.
