What are the heating/cooling rates in the QIAquant instruments?

The QIAquant 96 is equipped with a thermal block with 96 wells. To guarantee the best possible performance and heat exchange capability, the thermal block is made from gold-plated silver. This achieves a high temperature homogeneity and uniformity in combination with heating rates of up to 8°C/s and cooling rates of up to 6°C/s. 
The QIAquant 384 is equipped with a thermal block with 384 wells. The thermal block consists of very good heat-conducting aluminum. This achieves high temperature homogeneity and uniformity, in combination with heating rates of up to 4°C/s and cooling rates of up to 2°C/s.
