Floor standing units are designed to provide ultra-high throughput solvent evaporation from samples in an extensive variety of formats
Available from Genevac, the Mega series II centrifugal evaporator range are said to set the benchmark for the most demanding large scale solvent removal applications, such as purification of library compounds and compound management.
In addition to providing ultra-high throughput of smaller formats such as microtitre plates, Mega series II systems have the capacity to handle multiple sample holders including fraction collector racks from LC/MS systems, larger reaction blocks and proprietary sample formats.
With a 1.2 metre diameter internal chamber the Mega 1200 can accommodate and dry down simultaneously sixteen Gilson 22-style or eight Gilson 207 style racks on its four rotor positions.
Taking advantage of technological advances Genevac says it has been able to significantly improve evaporation performance in the series II systems through the use of higher-powered lamps, more sophisticated control software and increased condensing power.
The systems are said to be 40% faster with like-for-like loads than the older model, making the improved Mega series II twice as fast as any comparable machine on the market.
The systems have a range of options to enhance their performance and versatility.
These include Dri-Pure anti-bumping system, continuous running condensers, solvent waste pumps, fumehood enclosure and condenser flushing system.
