Nitrogen blow down evaporators have for many years been a central resource for sample preparation in the laboratory. The ability to safely and easily remove organic and chromatographic solvents from samples is vitally important. Samples can be dried down and re-constituted in a more suitable solvent, or they may simply be concentrated before analyses to increase sensitivity.
The robust design of the Ultravap Gemini brings together for the first time in our range two individually temperature-regulated evaporation positions with a wide choice of head styles and configurations, meaning users can dry down a 96 well deep well plate at the same time as 48 HPLC vials.
- Simultaneously dry two plates Evaporator heads may be quickly and easily interchanged as needs change
- Easy adjustments of temperature, gas flow rates and needle depth into the wells Individual gas and temperature setting for each plate
- Choice of evaporator heads
- Compact and lightweight design – easily fits all standard fume cupboards
This breakthrough in productivity will speed up the evaporation bottleneck in your laboratory, increase the sensitivity of your analyses and quicken sample processing times.
- Ambient to 60°C
- Choice of evaporation heads: 2, interchangeable 24, 48, 96 straight or 96 spiral needles.
- 8mm i.d. QuickConnect gas inlet Gas Control and Pressure:
- Two independent needle valve controls, minimum 3 bar, maximum 7bar
- Gas Flow rate: Heaters inactive below 35l/min flow rate, max flow 70 L/min per head
- Gas Requirements: supply at 3-7bar and up to 160L/Min (both heads)
- Vertical travel: 55mm plate height Plate adjustment: simultaneous height adjustment of both plates
- Plate locators: two sets, individually adjustable
The nitrogen blow down process is ideal for lower boiling pint organic solvents such as methanol, dichloromethane, hexane and acetonitrile. Blowdown evaporators are not suitable for high boiling solvents such as DMSO and water.
The Ultravap Gemini is simple to operate and maintain, and installation requires only connection to a gas supply and standard mains power socket. It may be operated with a supply of clean, dry compressed air in place of nitrogen, if the chemistry allows using an in-line gas filter.
The Ultravap Gemini is supplied with no evaporator heads allowing the separate selection of any suitable heads to suit your needs.
