Refrigerated CentriVap Pro Vacuum Concentrators are designed to rapidly concentrate heat-sensitive samples, such as RNA and proteins, using centrifugal force, vacuum and controlled temperature. This concentrator combines a refrigeration system that cools to -10 °C with a heater that warms to 100 °C to achieve the user’s desired set point temperatures.
As many as 296 sample containers may be processed at once when utilizing double-stacked rotor arrangement. Sample sizes range from a few microliters up to 50 milliliters. .
- 5” Touchscreen display offers complete control without any extra equipment.
- Easily view, plot and export sample run data for analysis and publication. CSV and PDF file formats supported.
- VaporWorks OS allows customization and storage of run parameters to build a virtually unlimited library of sample methods.
- Ethernet connectivity for automated alerts about sample run data, method parameters, maintenance, and software updates.
- In-run parameter changes allow full manipulation of rotor speed, temperature, run time and vacuum pressure without stopping the program currently in progress.
- Stackable sample rotors double your lab’s sample capacity; available on select rotor styles.
- Rotor imbalance detection protects the instrument by alerting users of potential balance issues.
- Built-in vacuum delay prevents bumping by allowing the rotor to achieve speed before applying vacuum.
- Built-in vacuum gauge allows for accurate vacuum pressure readings and control.
- Customizable rotor speed from 500 to 1800 RPM.
- Chamber preheat feature achieves temperature set point before samples are placed in the chamber.
- Lid latch with safety sensor locks the lid in place when the rotor is turning and prevents start up when the lid is open.
- 300-watt heater speeds evaporation by supplying a controlled amount of heat from OFF to a maximum of 100 °C in one-degree increments.
- Refrigeration system cools chamber to -10 °C.
- Audible alarm signals completion of programmed method.
- Pre-programmed menu of methods for a wide variety of sample types.
- Desiccant mode for vacuum desiccation of samples and Lyo-mode for small scale benchtop lyophilization when combined with a rotary vane vacuum pump.
- End point assist aids in determining dryness on select sample volumes and temperatures.
- Full one year warranty provided against defects in materials and workmanship.
Introducing VaporWorks OS
The VaporWorks Operating System in the CentriVap Pro Vacuum Concentrator is more than just a
touchscreen display. It is a set of powerful controls and useful insights, providing greater control over vacuum pressure, run time, chamber temperature, rotor speed, programming, diagnostics, data and more.
