- Safety switch prevents lid opening during rotor operation
- Compact design fits easily on benchtops or laboratory workspaces
- Operates on standard 115V, 60Hz electrical requirements
The Labconco Centrivap Vacuum Concentrator System is designed to rapidly concentrate many small samples using a combination of centrifugal force, vacuum, and heat. Centrifugation removes bumping and foaming as vacuum is applied while also concentrating the solute within the vial, allowing recovery of solutes from volumes as low as a few microliters. The concentrator is equipped with a 300 watt heater to speed evaporation. A timed outlet for the vacuum pump connection delays the start of the vacuum pump until the rotor reaches optimal operating speed. The microprocessor, which controls the operation of the heater
and the motor, provides excellent regulation and reproducibility of protocols. The memory has capability to store up to nine different protocols so exact test factors can be
easily repeated.
Equipped with a safety switch the Labconoco Centrivap Vacuum Concentrator System prevents the lid from being opened while the rotor is in operation. The compact, space saving design allows the system to be operable on a benchtop or other laboratory work surface. All of our equipment is fully tested to perform at factory specifications before being shipped.
