PromethION 2 Integrated Technical Specification

Device part number

PRO-INT002

Device name

PromethION 2 Integrated

Product overview

The PromethION 2 Integrated (P2i) is a small benchtop device designed to run up to two PromethION flow cells. Each flow cell is independently addressable, meaning that experiments can be run concurrently or individually. The P2i is a standalone product that includes enterprise-grade compute that performs all data acquisition and basecalling on the device. It also allows users to offer nanopore sequencing as a service.

The PromethION 2i contains two sequencing ports where the flow cells can be inserted. The device has the same capability as the smaller PromethION 2 Solo, with the addition of powerful compute containing an NVIDIA Ampere GPU, which enables basecalling data from two PromethION Flow Cells in real-time. The current chemistry and software enables generation of up to 290 Gbases* of data from a single PromethION Flow Cell (*theoretical max output based on sequencing at 420 bps for 72 hours).

What’s in the box

  • 1x PromethION 2 Integrated
  • 5x C13 power cables (1x US, 1x UK, 1x EU, 1x CN, 1x AUS) for international use
  • 2x Configuration Test Cells (CTCs)

The PromethION 2 Integrated is shipped together with the necessary cables and Configuration Test Cells (CTCs) to confirm your hardware is functioning as expected.

Configuration is the process of testing that communication between the P2i device and the control software is operational prior to experimental work being performed. This is carried out in the absence of any chemistry and uses a specific flow cell known as the Configuration Test Cell (CTC).

The P2i is packed into a box that contains everything needed for installing the device. No special equipment is required for installing the device in your laboratory.
