Automated centrifugal evaporator for robotic sample handling

In laboratories dealing with medicinal chemistry, environmental analysis, or clinical diagnostics, manual sample handling increases the risk of errors and contamination. Optimizing these processes with automation is critical to improving accuracy and efficiency, significantly enhancing reproducibility and safety.

Enables automated sample handling and evaporation

The Genevac EZ-2 4.0 Bionic, from SP Scientific, is a sophisticated centrifugal evaporator tailored for fully automated operation. With a newly designed automated lid, the system allows robotic loading and unloading of samples, improving throughput and minimising manual intervention. An indexed rotor ensures precise sample positioning, while the updated command set integrates seamlessly with laboratory automation systems via the RS232 port. Advanced sample holders provide a secure grip, preventing sample loss during robotic transfers. The evaporator supports high boiling point solvents, is compatible with concentrated hydrochloric acid (HCl), and includes an inert gas purge option for handling explosive solvents. The system features Dri-PureĀ® anti-bumping technology to eliminate cross-contamination, and its Auto Stop and Auto Defrost & Drain functions ensure operational efficiency.
