VACUUM CONCENTRATOR

Features

• Microprocessor-controlled centrifugal motion up to 1725 RPM eliminates bumping and foaming common when applying vacuum during evaporation and maximizes recovery of trace solutes.
• Quick-Stop™ System. Once run time has expired or the RUN/STOP button is pressed, within seconds the vacuum pump stops, the valve opens to bleed air into the chamber, and the rotor stops.
• Automatic vacuum release valve prevents loss of sample by releasing the vacuum before the rotor stops and during power failures.
• Lid latch with safety sensor locks the lid in place when the rotor is turning and prevents start up when the lid is open.
• Built-in vacuum delay prevents bumping by allowing the rotor to achieve speed before applying vacuum.
• Corrosion-resistant sample chamber accommodates accessory rotors for a wide variety of sample tubes.
• Large phenol-free lid seal ensures good vacuum without potential for phenol contamination.
• Microprocessor-controlled 300-watt heater speeds evaporation by supplying a controlled amount of heat from OFF up to a maximum of 100° C in one degree increments.
• Three Quick-Start™ Buttons store one user-set program each.
• Easy-to-read LCD display prompts the user to set program parameters and displays program number, actual and set point temperatures, heat time remaining, run time remaining, and if Heat Boost™ is activated.
• Heat and run times are set separately, each from 1 to 999 minutes, so that heat may be programmed to shut down sooner than the run to protect heat sensitive samples from excessive heat exposure after the solvent has evaporated.
• PREHEAT button activates the heater to begin elevating to set point temperature.
• Memory stores 9 user-set programs with parameters of temperature, heat time and run time.
• Audible alarm signals completion of set point run time.
• Electrical receptacle allows connection of accessory vacuum pump so that the pump may be activated from control panel.
• ETL listed (115 volt models)
• CE (European Community) conformity (230 volt models)
• Full one year warranty is provided against defects in materials and workmanship.
