Supercritical Fluid Technologies (SFT) has introduced the SFT-100 supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) system.
The SFE was developed to investigate the feasibility of applying supercritical fluid techniques to various analyses, processing challenges, and QC/QA applications.
The SFT-100 system us a fully functional instrument designed to perform extractions in a supercritical fluid media.
Reliable, dual sapphire syringe pump technology pressurises the SFT-100's stainless steel vessel, which is capable of containing supercritical fluids at pressures up to 10,000lb/in2 (69 MPa).
The SFT-100 accommodates pressure vessels of up to 100 mL capacity.
The large processing vessel enables the user to extract very low levels of key components from materials, or to process larger amounts of bulk material than would be possible with conventional, analytical scale SFE equipment.
An integrated pre-heater ensures the consistent temperature of the fluid delivered to the extraction vessel, ensuring efficient, consistent, and repeatable results.
An optional co-solvent pump extends the versatility of the SFT-100 by enabling extraction of moderately polar compounds.
