What types of samples can this concentrator process?

This equipment is designed for efficient and gentle vacuum concentration of a wide range of samples, including DNA, RNA, nucleotides, proteins, and other liquid or wet biological and chemical samples.

Does this unit require an external vacuum pump?

The 'Concentrator Plus' model typically integrates a maintenance-free PTFE diaphragm pump. Some configurations may include an AC receptacle for an external vacuum pump, but the internal pump is usually sufficient for most applications.

What maintenance is typically required for this type of concentrator?

Units featuring a PTFE diaphragm pump generally require minimal maintenance, as they eliminate the need for oil changes. Regular cleaning of the chamber and checking seals are common maintenance tasks.

What are the benefits of the integrated brake mode?

The integrated brake mode allows for a faster rotor stop, which provides quicker access to samples and improves workflow efficiency.
