Labconco™ RapidVap N₂/48 Dry Evaporation System

Description

• Fast evaporation rates (methylene chloride: 7.3mL/minute/tube; water: 1.1mL/minute/tube)
• Block has 8 compartments with 6 ports each to handle up to 48 small sample tubes or up to eight 600mL tubes
• May be used with a broad range of aggressive chemicals
• For use in drug development and metabolism, bioresearch, combinatorial chemistry, environmental testing, forensics and toxicology
• Microprocessor-controlled nitrogren flow, heating system and vortex motor, with easy to read LCD screen
• Nitrogen blows down directly onto 2, 4, 6 or 8 samples in the manifold to reduce partial pressure, speed evaporation and remove evaporating solvent
• Dry block heating system, 1000W, supplies a controlled amount of heat up to 100°C
• Vortex motion increases surface area for faster evaporation
• Maintenance-free motor provides smooth variable-speed power to drive the vortex motion up to 500 rpm
• PTFE-coated aluminum chamber and 8-position sample block
• Epoxy-coated cast aluminum cabinet base and acrylic/PVC thermoplastic upper housing
• Glass lid with dual lid clamps
• Phenol-free gasket provides complete sealing
• Unique Cool-Zone insulates sample remaining in glassware stem to permit processing to a desired end point, which may not be complete dryness
• Alarm signals completion of run so samples can be left unattended during operation
• Up to 9 different user-set programs may be stored in memory to easily set parameters: time, heat, vortex speed, number of active nitrogen positions
• All mechanical components are isolated from the chemical fumes and vapors for longer life
