FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How is PLUTO-T different from HY-4L?
PLUTO-T is an RF-only 200 W compact cleaner with 1 W power precision and touchscreen automation, sized for single-sample workflows. HY-4L offers RF or mid-frequency options in a 4L chamber format. See the PLUTO vs HY comparison guide for a full breakdown.
Can PLUTO-T be purchased directly?
Yes. PLUTO-T can be ordered directly, and institutional buyers can also request a budgetary quote for PO-based purchasing.
