Genevac has launched the Puck, a sampling accessory that extends the sampling versatility of its Rocket Evaporator to simultaneously accommodate up to 18 60ml accelerated solvent extractor tubes.
For environmental, food and agricultural scientists that commonly employ solvent extraction techniques, concentration of extracted samples prior to analysis has traditionally been a time-consuming manual process involving exposure to organic solvents.
Benefiting from a low-temperature, low-pressure steam heating technology developed by Genevac, the accelerated solvent extractor (ASE)-compatible Rocket Evaporator is able to achieve the dual goals of fast evaporation with precise temperature control, thereby accelerating the safe concentration of extraction samples.
Genevac's Dri-Pure technology is said to prevent solvent bumping and cross contamination inherent with rotary evaporator and other vacuum evaporation systems.
Offering unattended operation capability, the Rocket Evaporator requires no training.
A two-stage cold trap built into the Rocket Evaporator provides high levels of solvent recovery, even with volatile organic solvents.
Requiring no peripherals for operation, the compact Rocket Evaporator fits onto a laboratory bench or into a fume hood.
All key components on the system are user serviceable.
