CEM Edge – Automated Microwave Extraction System
CEM Edge – Automated Microwave Extraction System
The new EDGETM technology is based on energized, dispersive, guided, extraction and combines traditional pressurized fluid extraction with dSPE. This new automated process provides flexibility and speed never before achieved. The EDGETM is a complete solution to sample preparation providing fluid addition, rapid extraction, sample filtration, and fluid dispensing all in less than 5 minutes. Also, with the addition of appropriate Q-sorbentsTM it can combine analyte extraction and sample cleanup in a rapid single step process. The EDGETM is compact (about the size of an analytical balance) and can process 12 samples per hour. This allows high throughput labs to use multiple units to process 50 – 100 samples per hour. Key markets are environmental, food, plastics, consumer products, pharmaceuticals, forensics and clinical.
Standard Features of CEM Edge – Automated Pressurized Fluid Extraction
- The system extracts 12 samples in one hour (5 minutes or less) with 12 position auto extractor & complies with
USEPA 3545 & other EPA methods. - Power control technology delivers maximum energy to the sampLoad, extract, cool the solvent & filter the same
in collecting tubes automatically. (No need of Manual filtration). - Built in operating system with fluorescent Display and alphanumeric keypad for entry of operating parameters
System operates stand alone as well as through PC, suitable software for such control should be offered as option. - 1000 watt or more capacity heater to heat up the sample up to 150°C or more.
