I02 is one of five macromolecular crystallography (MX) beamlines at Diamond. I02 is a tuneable beamline with a working wavelength range of 0.68 - 2.48 Å. The standard working energy is 12.658 keV which provides a wavelength of 0.979 Å and a focussed beam size of 80 x 20 um (FWHM). As with all the MX beamlines, I02 uses SPINE standard pins and Unipucks.
