Bruker Introduces New Ascend™ High Performance High-Field NMR Magnet Series

Business Wire
At the 51st ENC, Bruker launches its new Ascend™ series
of compact, high field NMR magnets to make high-field NMR even more
powerful, and at the same time more convenient and accessible for
numerous NMR laboratories. This new magnet line combines the key
advantages of Bruker’s well-established UltraShield™ Plus
magnets, with further innovations for superior performance and
greater convenience. The Ascend magnet design features
advanced superconductor technology, enabling the design of smaller
magnet coils, thus resulting in a significant reduction in the size
of the cryostat. The new Ascend magnets are therefore easier
to site, even safer to run and they offer reduced operating costs.
Ascend magnets are compatible with newly developed and most
recent Bruker NMR probes, spectrometers, automation technology and
software, for integrated high performance NMR systems used in
structural biology and materials research applications.
The availability of cutting-edge superconducting wire technology
plus proprietary magnet design capabilities enable Bruker to
deliver robust, stable and very compact high-field NMR magnets for
proton frequencies up to 850 MHz, while matching or exceeding the
performance of traditional magnets. Bruker’s unique and further
improved External Disturbance Suppression (EDS) technology provides
outstanding suppression of external magnetic field disturbances,
making Ascend magnets ideal for challenging urban
environments and space-restricted laboratories. Bruker’s
proprietary superconducting joint technology for high fields
guarantees the lowest drift rates.
Ascend magnets, available as standard bore (54mm) magnets
for 700, 800 and 850 MHz , are extremely convenient and easy to
site, even in single story labs, due to their compact size and
minimal stray field. Access for changing liquids NMR samples is now
much easier using the optional new and unique NMR
SampleMail™ . Moreover, initial magnet rigging costs at
installation are reduced. The small Ascend cryostat size
also reduces cryogen consumption, making the new magnets even more
economical to maintain.
Prof. Tai-Huang Huang at the Institute of Biomedical Sciences of
the Academica Sinica in Taipei, TW stated: “As the recipient of the
first 850 MHz Ascend magnet installed outside of Bruker, we
are extremely happy with the quality of the magnet and the ease of
installation. This new high field core capability will greatly
enhance our research opportunities in structural biology and
biomedical sciences. ”
Dr. Rene Jeker, Managing Director of Bruker BioSpin AG in
Faellanden, Switzerland, added: “Built on the proven reliability,
performance and wealth of experience gained from thousands of
UltraShield magnet installations worldwide, the
Ascend magnet series is designed with unique additional
protective features for both magnet and user safety. We are excited
that all the latest Bruker NMR magnet technologies have now been
incorporated into one magnet series, resulting in unsurpassed
performance, convenience and maximum reliability.”
