Acid-Resistant Refrigerated CentriVap Centrifugal Vacuum Concentrator
The Refrigerated CentriVap Centrifugal Concentrator is designed to rapidly concentrate multiple small heat-sensitive samples, such as RNA and proteins, using centrifugal force, vacuum and controlled temperature. This exclusive concentrator combines a refrigeration system that cools to -4º C with a heater that warms to 100º C to achieve the user’s desired set point temperatures.
Features
| • Brushed stainless steel and glacier white, epoxy-coated steel exterior with blue accents. • Lid latch with safety sensor. • Phenol-free lid gasket. • Epoxy-coated aluminum chamber. • 1/4 hp refrigeration system to cool chamber to -4° C. • 300-watt heater to heat chamber to +100° C. • Sensor that reads internal chamber temperature. • Microprocessor-controlled programming for “Temperature 1” from -4° C to +100° C, “Temperature 1” time from 1 to 999 minutes or indefinite, “Temperature 2” from -4° C to +100° C, and “Temperature 2” time from 0 to 999 minutes or indefinite. Memory stores 1 to 9 programs. • LCD for display of program number, set point and actual “Temperature 1 and 2,” set point and time remaining for “Temperature 1 and 2,” and refrigeration activation (“Y” or “N”). • Control panel with RUN/STOP button, PREHEAT/ COOL button, set point SELECT button, increase/ decrease buttons, and 3 Quick-Start buttons. • Centrifugal motion is provided by a brushless motor capable of achieving up to 1725 rpm. • Quick-Stop System to stop vacuum pump, open valve to bleed air into the chamber and stop the rotor within seconds after time expires or RUN/STOP button is pressed. • Automatic vacuum release valve. • Built-in vacuum delay allows rotor to achieve speed before applying vacuum. • Audible alarm to signal completion of set point run time. • 1/2″ OD aluminum hose fitting for connection to vacuum tubing. Vacuum pump is not included. • Vacuum port with quick disconnect fitting for 1/4″ ID tubing. • 115 volt models have a 115 volt electrical receptacle on the back to connect accessory vacuum pump to the system. • 230 volt models have a reverse IEC electrical receptacle on the back to connect accessory vacuum pump to the system. • 115 volt models have a 10-foot, 3-wire cord with NEMA 5-20 plug. • 230 volt models have an 8-foot cord with NEMA 6-20 plug. • Overall dimensions with closed lid: 14.7″ wide x 21.7″ deep x 16.6″ high (37.3 x 55.1 x 42.2 cm). • Actual weight 95 lbs. (43 kg). Shipping weight 108 lbs. (49 kg). |
