Milestone microwave digestion systems - UltraCLAVE
|
|
|
|
The UltraCLAVE can be used for semi-automated batch processing of samples and high-throughput or large-volume applications.
Loading, unloading and processing of samples is performed automatically under computer control. The UltraCLAVE allows processing of multiple samples—rotors with as many as 50 positions are available—or a
single large reaction mixture. Reactions can be scaled from microliters to 3 litres, under identical conditions using the same reaction system. Continuous, unpulsed delivery of microwave power provides the most
precise possible control over reaction conditions, from millisecond to millisecond

The high pressure steel reactor has a volume of 4.2 litres and an effective working volume of 3.5 litres with the
PTFE liner installed. Microwave energy from the system's magnetron is introduced into the reactor through a special microwave-transparent port. Since the reactor and cavity are the same, the internal
geometry is optimised for direct microwave coupling to materials in the reactor, this design ensures maximum sample heating efficiency. The interior of the UltraCLAVE stainless steel reactor is protected
by a special surface treatment for acid and chemical resistance

The EasyCLAVE software includes an Autorun mode in which a complete procedure is automatically run. The user is
only required to set the Start and Stop parameters, place the sample container/rack in the UltraCLAVE and press Autorun. The unit will automatically close, reach the preset load pressure, carry out the
temperature/pressure program, stop the program and release pressure. After pressure release the system will automatically open. An email can be sent to a specific email address advising the procedure is
completed. Full documentation is available as well as a solvent library for increased safety of operation
