The Centrifan PE is a small volume evaporator and sample concentrator which simplifies small volume concentration tasks for synthetic and medicinal chemists.
As well as pharmaceutical biotech and university researchers, the Centrifan PE small volume evaporator system from LabHut.com is designed for use in any application that requires sample concentration by evaporation in a non-destructive way.
The system works via a rotor, containing the sample vials, which is spun at high speed inside a chamber which may be heated up to 55 degrees.
On the top of the rotor and vials, a small flow splitter forces air into the vial and across the surface of the liquid inside.
The vials are held at an angle to increase the surface area of the sample and maximise the liquid/air interaction.
LabHut claims that because of the high air movement, the solvent evaporates, and the gas vapour is condensed inside a closed cool-trap system rendering it safe to use within the open laboratory.
Features overview:
- Vacuum free
- Programmable ambient temperature to 55°C
- Green solvent recovery that recirculates captured gas
