A wide range of vessels are available from Milestone, to accommodate all sample preparation requirements
Only the excess pressure is released
from the vessel, and the digestion process can be completed in full safety
When a specific
pressure is achieved, the disk bursts, and the pressure dramatically drops to zero. Sample is lost, and the program must be manually stopped.

The 'dome-shaped' spring at the top of
the vessel is temporarily flattened in case of overpressure (1), allowing the cap to lift-up (2) slightly and release the pressure. Once the pressure has been released, the cap closes again (3), and the microwave
program can continue. This ensures total safety and a successful completion of the digestion/extraction process.
Milestone 'vent-and-reseal' vessels are the foundation of it's microwave digestion
technology. This patented technology provides analysts with unsurpassed performance capabilities. While other devices use membranes or burst disks that render a vessel useless after venting, the Milestone system
releases only the excess pressure from the vessels. This vessel technology is the perfect complement to the EthosEZ pressure-responsive door, resulting in the safest microwave system available today.
Milestone offers a wide variety of vessels for all applications from digestion, synthesis,
extraction, evaporation, fusion, and protein hydrolysis The vessel technology is continuously enhanced to provide analysts with the latest tools for their application. Coupled with the extensive range of rotors are
the advanced reaction monitoring sensors.
