SAFE® 96 XT - 2D TUBES WITH EXTERNAL THREAD IN 96 SBS FORMAT
Discover the SAFE® 96 XT tubes, specifically designed for efficient sample storage in automated storage systems. These 2D-coded tubes with external threads offer a significant advantage over tubes with internal threads due to their lower height. Notably, the SAFE® SX 300 tube, with a usable working volume of 300 µl and a height of only 20.3 mm (including screw cap), is a true space-saving marvel.
The SAFE® 96 XT tubes maximize storage capacity and provide a reliable solution for your laboratory processes. Thanks to the external threads, cross-contamination is minimized, and the patented TPE compression ensures excellent sealing. These tubes are ideal for use in highly automated environments, enabling efficient and secure long-term sample storage. With the SAFE® 96 XT tubes, laboratories can efficiently and safely store their samples while enhancing automation capabilities.

System
- SAFE® Tube Coding
Triple security for your samples with triple coding of the tube:
a 1D side code, side plain text, and a 2D bottom code.
This ensures secure and easy identification and retrieval of your samples. Simply connect the coding with your sample using our SAFE® Tube or SAFE® Rack Reader.
- Customizable Free Space
Additionally, there is ample space for custom coding, which can contain specific information about your lab or samples. The side black area is laser-etched with the LVL logo by default but can be customized for free upon request.
- 2D Bottom Code and Protective Rim
The tubes are equipped with a unique 2D bottom code that enables fast and secure identification.
To ensure the integrity of your samples, the bottom code is protected by a special rim against mechanical influences.
Rack Coding
The new automation-friendly LVL SAFE® 2D rack offers maximum efficiency, safety, and quality in your laboratory.
- Side Rack Coding:
The side coding as a 1D code and readable plain text on the rack allows for automatic and visual retrieval of your sample racks. Get to know our SAFE® Rack Reader. - Bottom Orientation Code:
Three new areas for additional information: The revised design includes three new areas to accommodate additional information about the rack and tubes, perfecting traceability and documentation.
