Supercritical Fluid Technologies (SFT) has introduced a bench-top supercritical fluid extractor (SFE), the model SFT-110XW, which is suited for demanding applications.
Building on the strengths of the SFT-100 and SFT-100XW, the completely redesigned restrictor valve with integrated micrometer allows for very precise flow control, A completely removable oven lid and large side panel allow the user easy access to the high-pressure vessel(s).
An indicator light on the SFT-10 pump module alerts the user to proper operation of the Peltier pre-cooler, ensuring CO2 is maintained in the liquid state.
A robust outlet from the restrictor ensures that users will not accidentally damage the outlet tube when inserting it into the collection container.
Extraction vessels up to 500ml, single or dual configurations, afford maximum versatility.
Supercritical fluid extraction has become a popular alternative to traditional extraction methods that use organic solvents.
Fast, efficient extraction of a variety of materials may be achieved using supercritical carbon dioxide.
The SFT-110XW SFE is suited for research and process-development applications.
Precise control of temperature, pressure and flow rate is essential for successful, reproducible extractions.
The use of dual sapphire syringe-pump technology, integrated pre-heaters and precise flow control provides the precision required to achieve these goals.
