Syrris has introduced the Atlas, a high-performance multipurpose synthesis system for research-and-development chemists.
The Atlas, available from John Morris Scientific, offers a modular solution for a range of functions including heating, stirring, cooling and automated reagent addition.
The Atlas can adopt a range of different system configurations.
The Lithium system automates reactions in round-bottomed flasks or vials and is equipped with a hotplate and stacking dry bath.
Flasks from 50ml to 1 litre can be heated up to 280C while the exterior surface remains cool to the touch.
The Lithium allows users to edit and run profiles automatically from the base to control heating, cooling, stirring and reagent addition.
The Sodium system automates reactions in round-bottomed flasks and is equipped with a hotplate (or hot and coldplate), magnetic stirrer and a scorpion overhead stirrer for viscous reactions.
The stacking dry bath enables heating of round-bottomed flasks from 50ml to 1 litre up to 280C.
The Potassium system is designed for chemists who perform reactions in jacketed reactors.
Integrated temperature and circulator control from the base unit make reactions easier.
The Potassium is equipped with a scorpion overhead stirrer and 250ml round-bottomed jacketed vessel, which can be substituted if required.
The pH monitoring and control systems are ideal for chemists who perform pH-sensitive reactions.
The pH system is based on the Potassium, although the temperature node is replaced with a combined pH and temperature node and a pH probe allowing the Atlas to monitor both reaction temperature and pH.
The pH system is equipped with a syringe pump and can be configured to control the pH of a reaction by adding either acid and/or base as necessary to maintain a set pH value.
The pH system can be operated from the base unit or via the Atlas software.
The remote mount is designed for chemists who perform reactions in jacketed vessels.
The remote mount allows a vessel to be mounted onto laboratory scaffolding.
The mount adds functionality to existing Atlas systems by increasing the maximum working volume to 5 litres and locating jacketed vessels away from the Atlas base.
The gravimetric dosing system allows a defined mass of reagent to be pumped from a balance to the reactor by a controlled peristaltic pump.
The mass flow rate can be defined, monitored and adjusted by using Atlas software.
The syringe pump is a volumetric dosing system that consists of two syringes and can be configured into two refilling flows or one continuous flow.
A choice of dosing modes allows simple additions or active control of parameters including pH and temperature.
Atlas software is an easy-to-use application for control and analysis of experiments.
Systems including stirrers, circulators, RTDs, pumps, balances, flow meters, and so on.
The software controls Atlas hardware as well as devices from other manufacturers.
Reactions are continuously monitored and graphed with easy-to-use alarms and emergency control.
