Overview

Precision CellRad+ Cell Irradiation System is a state-of-the-art benchtop X-ray irradiation platform designed for continuous, controlled cell irradiation. This advanced system provides a safer, costeffective, and sustainable alternative to gamma radioisotope-based irradiation, eliminating the need for isotope handling, storage, and disposal.

Its compact design and built-in shielding allow installation directly within the laboratory, without the requirement for costly infrastructure modifications. The CellRad+ is simple to operate, requiring no specialised X-ray knowledge, and features an intuitive touchscreen interface with password-protected access.

It plugs into any standard A/C outlet and includes an integrated dosimeter with advanced Automatic Dose Control (ADC) for precise dose setting and reproducibility. Automatic warm-up extends tube life, and the system supports remote diagnostics and web-based support from product specialists for minimal downtime.

Additional details

The system operates across an energy range of 10-150 kV with a maximum current of 6.25 mA, allowing versatile irradiation settings for different experimental requirements. An electrically operated turntable (2 RPM) ensures uniform dosing, while the integrated closed-loop heat exchanger maintains optimal operational stability.

The irradiation chamber (W 12" × D 12" × H 14") accommodates a wide range of sample formats, with a beam coverage of 12" (30 cm) and sourceto-sample distance of 17" (44 cm). The system is NRTL certified by Intertek for electrical safety and maintains an Excel-based exposure/user log that can be exported via USB for audit and compliance purposes. These features make the CellRad+ ideally suited for applications including cancer cell biology, tissue and stem cell research, nanoparticle studies, and immunotherapy investigations.
