  • 11.7 tesla/500MHz, narrow bore
  • Pulse field gradient probe, capable of tuning to nuclei from 15N - 19F
  • Due to manual tuning, probe is typically tuned to 13C. Please contact us for other nuclei or request training on an autotuning instrument.
  • Used for routine 1H/13C characterization experiments and organic chemistry majors lab.

The DRX-500 console was acquired in 1998 for the 1989 Oxford magnet. It was moved from BBMB to Gilman Hall in May 2014, and re-energized in November 2014.
