Aoda MASTER Ultra High Throughput Closed Microwave Digestion Extraction Workstation

Aoda MASTER Ultra High Throughput Closed Microwave Digestion Extraction Workstation

1. High-strength alloy carousel: higher pressure and better digestion performance.

The high throughput vessel, since being connected by the high tensile alloy draw bar, may withstand great pressure (≥10000Kg). Each digestion vessel may receive great supports from the vessel frame on its top and bottom and it may not be deformed or leaked under the pressure of ≤4MPa and temperature of ≤250℃. (However, those similar products made by other venders generally may bear the temperature of 210℃ maximally.)

2. UTH-Caro design makes the carousel stir the microwave, guarantee samples digested evenly

The high throughput vessel frame may homogenize the microwave field inside the chamber with the turning and stirring of frame vessel; therefore, up to 100 high throughput vessels may be heated evenly in the microwave field.

3. Safety Bolt: safer, more accuracy in result and higher recycling rate.

Quantified Safety Bolt design, ensures samples be closed completely and triggers a quantified pressure relief while over pressure; Safety Bolt unit, instead of safety membrane and other consumables, ensure the digestion vessel be sealed completely under normal working conditions, which avoids the loss of volatile elements and incomplete digestion. And only when the pressure is too high and may constitute a danger, the Safety Bolt will automatically blow out vertically and the cover auto-up to release the pressure, achieving quantified vertical blast pressure-relief to guarantee its well operation. Under normal operation, the Safety Bolt requires no replacement. In addition, it is easy for venting to open the cover after completion of digestion. (However, those similar products on the market may bear low pressure and temperature, and since the cover is not made of metal, it may not recover after deformation; consequently, it may be not flexible anymore and be useless as it loses its sealing function after several times of recovering. This is why the samples inside the digestion vessel are reduced or dried and it has low recovery rate.)

4. Uni-Turn technology, increased homogeneity and reliability.

The whole set of digestion vessels was designed to rotate continuously in one direction, it breaks conventions of<360° back and forth rotation, avoiding uneven heating on vessels and reducing impact on turntable motor to extend service life. The temperature and pressure cables are short, that they are free from twisting in running and can be disassembled easily.

5. 15 minutes fast cooling

Because of the high thermal conductivity of composite Xtra Fiber outer vessel and the efficient exhaust system, it only needs 15 minutes that the temperature cools from 200 ℃ to 60 ℃, greatly accelerates handling speed.

6. Easy operation with innovative tools

The various convenient operation tools may lessen the working burden of operators and increase the preparation efficiency. Let’s take the flexible trolley as an example. Such device may help the experiment personnel to place the high throughput rotary table with fully loaded samples (weighing 15-20kg) in the chamber and take it out easily. In this manner, the operator may not be required to contact the high-temperature and high-pressure digestion vessel directly and will not be injured by acid mist, perfectly ensuring the safety of the operation. The electric tool with fixed moment to close and open the digestion vessel may make the operation of high throughput digestion vessel rapid, simple and fulfilled.

1. Explosion-proof outer vessel made of composite Xtra Fiber, better than those similar products on the market.

The composite Xtra Fiber material is light, thin, and having better hardness (better than metal) and good rigidity. Moreover, its pressure resistance and corrosion resistance performances are much better than PEEK (Poly-Ether-Ether-Ketone) outer vessel. SINEO applies painted PFA processes, improves the corrosion-proof capacity by packing the composite fibers totally. Moreover, the high tensile invincible composite material may withstand pressure of 10000psi and temperature of 500-600℃.

2. Advanced and reliable pressure measuring technology by piezoelectric crystal.

At present, the air-pipe is generally applied to transmit, measure and control the pressure inside the vessel for most venders. The air-pipe has apparent demerit that is too long, usually 400-600 mm in length. Hence, the digestion turntable shall rotate back and forth in 360 degrees to avoid the air-pipe being twisted. Besides, the samples in master vessel may be polluted easily, and it may not withstand high pressure to prevent breaking the air pipe. Therefore, after years of research and development, SINEO acquires the pressure measuring technology by piezoelectric crystal, reliable and durable. Such technology may measure and control the pressure under 12 MPa. The measuring and control cable is quite short, only 120-140 mm, therefore, there will be no twisting, sealing joint or leakage. Such technology allows easy operation and its greats merit is the absolute isolation of measuring and controlling component and sample, thus giving no chance to cross contamination. Integrating the technology of synchronous rotation of temperature-pressure device and digestion vessel with the rotary table in one direction and the patented technology of junction box, the turntable plate may rotate towards one directly constantly. The pressure control system is the standard configuration of SINEO’s product, more reliable than units with temperature monitoring only.

Piezoelectric crystal is installed on the bottom or top of the vessel frame like an electronic balance, and the parameter of pressure will be delivered via electrical signal.

3. The temperature inside the digestion vessel can be controlled by the combination of precise measure of temperature inside master vessel and IR temperature scanning

The precise measurement and control of temperature inside the master vessel (Pt or optical fiber) combines with the IR temperature scanning, and the computer may identify the master vessel automatically and give the real-time comparison of temperature with standard vessel, more precise and reliable than only IR temperature measuring.

4. High throughput rotor with optional strong magnetic stirring function specially for extraction or synthesis

Ultra high pressure and high temperature 18-vessel digestion vessel and carousel may work under 6MPa and 260℃, quite suitable for digestion of insoluble samples or closed microwave synthesis under extreme conditions. The strong magnetic stirring function is available for this configuration.

5. 200ml vessels for large volume sampling.

LV-200 carousel with16-200ml vessels can be reacted simultaneously, and the sample size can reach 1-2 g. Magnetic stirring makes samples be digested faster and thoroughly. The patented design of innovative Safety Bolt can guarantee the safe as well as a completely digestion. The demand of large sampling digestion can be met.

6. Wireless remote visual monitoring system make reaction be clear at a glance.

Innovative remote wireless video monitoring system, makes the digestion process clearly visible. Mobile phones and tablets can realize the observation and monitoring of the reaction, making the operation safer and more convenient.

7. 100-vessel ultrahigh throughput closed microwave digestion vessel and carousel breakthrough products for the industry

To adapt to the rapid development of advanced analytical instrument, the requirement for limit of detection, volume of sample, acid amount and blank interference are decreased, but the amount of samples to be detected are increased. Therefore, small volume, good pressure-bearing capacity and excellent batch processing performance, has become the trend for the development of microwave digestion technology. After releasing the first microwave digestion apparatus with 40 vessels at home, Sineo cooperated with National Research Centre of Geoanalysis and developed MASTER-100. Its unique UTH-Caro design is based on the previous designs and technologies of high throughput products. Such product is well received by the users in geological industry, food industry, sanitary inspection industry and environment industry. The 100-vesssel digestion carousel has 3 volume specifications, 15ml, 30ml and 50ml, and it may be customized according to the specific requirement of the user.
