Large-capacity vacuum concentrator with a modular design, ideal for drying aggressive organic solvents, strong acids, bases, and combinatorial chemistry solvents. It is capable of drying larger quantities of samples at one time and can support high-volume sample preparation needs.
- User interface allows use of four preset programs and eight user defined programs to set heat, run time, ramp rate, and vacuum level for efficient operation
- Ability to download live run data from a USB port enhances data integrity
- Standard glass lid locks securely to help ensure safety for samples and users
- Hands-free operation when loading or unloading the rotor with the lid stay mechanism
- An audible alarm alerts the user when the operation is finished
- Heat time and run time setting made for 1 minute to 9 hour 59 minutes and continuous, run time set in manual mode
IR heat lamps (four) and PTFE-coated chamber and tubing for drying low and high-boiling point solvents and strong acids and bases such as DMSO, methylene chloride, TFA, and other acids. Heated glass lid reduces drying times and prevents condensation. Built-in digital vacuum gauge allows continuous monitoring of process to avoid 'bumping' or uncontrolled boiling of solvents.
The heavy-duty universal rotor is optimized for efficient large-sample processing while accommodating various sample handling formats, such as microcentrifuge tubes, microplates, and 250ml flasks.
Applied in solid-phase extractions, drying lipid extracts, flash chromatography fractions, solid-phase synthesis cleavage solutions such as protein, hydrolysates and evaporating synthesis solids and HPLC. Used in pharmaceutical, life science, biotech (molecular biology and protein), academic research, industrial, agricultural, food and beverage industries.
Ambient, 35 to 80 °C in 5 °C increments.
Typical rotor spin speed (without rotor) 50 Hz 1040 rpm and 60 Hz 1060 rpm. Vacuum level control of 20 Torr to 100 mTorr in 0.1 Torr increments.
