Simple,
Reliable, Vacuum-Free, Sample-Safe
- Vacuum-Free - no bumping or splashing to risk
sample purity and yield
- Centrifugal Evaporation - sample securely pressed
in spinning containers
- Versatile - ideal for LC fractions, synthesis
reactions, harsh inorganic chemistry, cold room operators,
toxic compounds, radioisotopes
- Temperature - programmable ambient to 60o
C
- Off-Timer - programmable from seconds to hours
- Green Solvent Recovery - captured gas
recirculates in a closed system; toxic materials are
contained
- Flexible - concentrate samples or evaporate to
complete dryness
- Containers - use storage bottles, microtiter
plates, or scintillation vials
- Low cost -

The Centrifan RE uses
self-generating blow-down technology to evaporate samples
without a vacuum pump within a closed system. The lab-scale
evaporator uses centrifugal force to protect samples from
loss and cross-contamination enabling reliable, sample-safe
drying of toxic compounds.
Operates at Atmospheric Pressure
The Centrifan RE operates at atmospheric pressure and replaces typical vacuum centrifuges or blow down concentrators. Using only heating fins within the rotor compartment and the spinning rotor, the Centrifan RE provides a simple and effective evaporation environment.
Accommodates Standard Collection Vessels
- 8 x 100/250 mL storage bottles
- 24 x 20 mm x 150 mm test tubes
- 24 x 13 mm x 100 mm test tubes
- 4 x 96-well microtiter plates
- 24 x 20/40 mL scintillation vials
Rotors for proprietary sample containers have been
produced.
Space Saving Design
The compact Centrifan RE can be located anywhere on the lab
bench rather than taking up space in a fume hood. Vapors are
directed through an exhaust hose that can be connected to
the laboratory vent system or directed to a cold trap for
condensation.
