The HT-12 Series II system from Genevac is designed to provide the ideal solution for evaporation bottlenecks in the drug discovery laboratory
A new version of the popular system has been launched configured with Genevac's high performance scroll pump.
The main advantage of this reliable pump technology is that it does not require any pumping fluid or lubricant in order to operate.
This makes the new HT-12 Series II with scroll pump ideal for use in harsh chemistry environments where corrosive or volatile solvents are frequently used.
The HT-12's high performance and high sample capacities make it an ideal workhorse for applications including combinatorial chemistry, parallel synthesis, LC/MS purification, compound purification, plate re-formatting, and plate replication that require high throughput evaporation.
The unique design of the multi layer rotor ensures efficient use of valuable laboratory bench space as well as providing high performance and efficient evaporation.
The HT-12 system accommodates a wide range of sample formats.
The strong stainless steel rotors are housed in a cast aluminium vacuum chamber, protected from attack by corrosive vapours by a reinforced perfluorinated coating.
The rotors incorporate 12 sample swings to accommodate Genevac sample holders for tubes and vials, microtitre plates and custom sample formats.
Proprietary control software allows the HT-12 to automatically detect when the samples are dry and then shut it down - safeguarding valuable samples from potential thermal degradation.
Combined with Genevac's VC3000TA continuous running condensers, the 'auto stop when dry' function allows easy unattended operation offering the possibility of significant increases in productivity through use of overnight evaporation runs.
The HT-12 also boasts improved mechanics and electronics to further minimise operational downtime and routine maintenance.
