BD FACSymphony A5 SE

This 2022 BD FACSymphony™ A5e is an enhanced version of the A5, offering greater flexibility, automation compatibility,
and upgradeability, while maintaining the powerful high-parameter capabilities of the standard A5.

This 2022 unit comes certified to OEM specification along with a 90 day warranty (US ONLY).
A computer preloaded with software is also included.
BD FACSymphony A5e – 5-Laser Configuration Overview
Standard Laser Lines (5-laser setup):
355 nm (UV)
405 nm (Violet)
488 nm (Blue)
561 nm (Yellow-Green)
640 nm (Red)

Each laser typically supports multiple fluorescence detectors (PMTs), and with BD’s modular setup,
users can often configure up to 30+ colors in a 5-laser build, depending on the fluorophores and optical layout.

“e” Enhancements (compared to standard A5):
Electronics upgrade: Improved signal processing and faster data handling.
Ease of upgrade: Easier to add lasers and detectors later.
Enhanced automation compatibility: Plays better with robotic platforms and HTS setups.
Expanded fluorochrome support: Optimized for modern, brilliant dyes like BD Horizon Brilliant™ series.

Typical Applications:
Immuno-oncology panels (e.g. 28-color T cell or myeloid panels)
CAR-T characterization
Rare event detection (e.g. circulating tumor cells)
Deep phenotyping of immune subsets
High-parameter exploratory work in translational research
