Recording chambers for confocal imaging RC-30, RC-30HV, RC-30WA WARNER

The RC-30 series includes chambers optimised for confocal imaging, allowing precise control of bath volume and geometry, with rapid fluid exchange. The RC-30HV and RC-30WA models feature glass coverslips forming the top and bottom of the chamber, creating a reversible closed bath compatible with upright or inverted microscopes. The RC-30HV version has a 17.7 mm field of view and the RC-30WA has a wider 25 mm aperture. The chambers offer a variable bath volume (125 to 1000 µm thick) thanks to pre-cut or blank gaskets, enabling customised configurations. The heated versions (HV and WA) are fitted with resistors compatible with Warner TC-344C or TC-324C temperature controllers.
