Description
The Thermo Scientific Savant SC250EXP SpeedVac Concentrator is a large-capacity, heavy-duty benchtop concentrator engineered for high-throughput and continuous laboratory use. Designed to handle aggressive organic solvents as well as a wide range of acids and bases — including ammonium hydroxide and sodium hydroxide — it is equally effective with high boiling point solvents such as DMSO and DMF, and low boiling point solvents like methylene chloride and chloroform. Ideal for drug discovery, solid-phase synthesis, and sample preparation workflows, the SC250EXP delivers the chemical resistance, capacity, and flexibility demanded by modern research environments.
Features:
- Dual Vacuum Control (RAMP & LEVEL): Prevents samples from bumping or freezing, allowing optimization across a wide variety of sample and solvent types.
- Kalrez & PTFE-Coated Vapor Path: All materials along the vapor path are Kalrez, PTFE, or PTFE-coated for maximum chemical resistance and long-term durability.
- 4 Infrared Chamber Lamps: Provide efficient, uniform heating across the chamber to accelerate evaporation and reduce drying times.
- Heated Glass Lid: Minimizes condensation on the lid surface, further reducing drying times and improving overall efficiency.
- Dual Valve Mechanism: Enhances instrument durability and improves exhausting performance.
- Digital Parameter Display: Real-time monitoring of time, temperature, and vacuum levels from the front panel.
- High Sample Capacity: Accommodates up to 20 shallow-well microwell plates or up to 140 tubes (12 × 100 mm) with optional accessories.
- Enlarged Vacuum Port: Comes with an extra-wide tubing connection and large-mouth glass condensation flask for improved flow and performance.
