Genevac has launched the Rocket Evaporator, designed to provide unattended operational capabilities.
Requiring no training, the system is designed for use by a complete beginner within five minutes. Users simply load the flasks, highlight the desired evaporation method, and press start.
In-built monitoring and Automatic End of Run means users can focus on other tasks confident that they will achieve perfect, reproducible results every time.
Developed in response to users requiring an evaporator that could quickly process large volumes of solvent without supervision, the Rocket Evaporator can safely and rapidly dry or concentrate as many as six flasks (each containing up to 450ml solvent) or 18 ASE tubes five times faster than conventional evaporators.
As well as concentrating large sample volumes directly into sample vials, Rocket is fully compatible with Genevac’s proprietary SampleGenie style flask.
To achieve very fast evaporation with precise temperature control, the Rocket uses patented drying technology utilising low temperature steam to directly heat the sample flasks.
By pulling a vacuum on the samples, solvents boil at a low temperature, which is determined by the pressure.
Genevac’s patented Dri-Pure technology further ensures sample integrity by eliminating solvent bumping and foaming that can lead to cross contamination.
Incorporating an in-built three litre cold trap and requiring no peripherals for operation, the Rocket Evaporator fits neatly onto a laboratory bench or into a fume hood.
