Typical reactor volume

Units in this class commonly feature reactor volumes ranging from microlitres to several millilitres per reaction vessel.

Number of parallel reactions

The ASW2000 model typically supports a significant number of parallel reactions, often in the tens or hundreds.

Temperature range

For this class of equipment, a wide temperature range is common, often from sub-ambient to over 150°C, depending on reactor materials.

Reagent handling

Automated liquid and solid reagent dispensing under inert conditions is a standard feature.

Power supply

Typically requires a standard laboratory single-phase supply, commonly 230V, 50Hz in the UK, with specific amperage requirements varying by configuration.

Footprint

Automated synthesizers of this complexity typically require a dedicated benchtop space, with dimensions varying based on modularity and configuration.

Inert atmosphere capability

Commonly features integrated inert gas blanketing for oxygen and moisture sensitive reactions.
