Biotage® V-10 Touch Evaporator

The Biotage® V-10 Touch rapidly dries samples dissolved in both aqueous and organic solvents. It easily evaporates HPLC fractions from purification, high boiling point solvents from synthesis and features a dry-down onto silica technique for easier dry load capabilities prior to purification.

Solvent Compatibility:

Boiling points from 30 °C to 160 °C (up to 205 °C with an external vacuum pump). The system is not suitable for solutions containing HCl at any concentration.

Features:

  • Heating: 20 ºC to 70 ºC
  • Rotational Speed: 3000 to 8000 rpm
  • Condenser: Refrigerated condenser temperature -25 ºC. Automated and manual draining; and manual defrost
  • Vial Compatibility: 30 and 20 mL scintillation vials and 8 and 4 mL vials
  • Solvent Reclamation: Up to 98% of solvent vapors under typical conditions

Safety Concerns:

The Biotage V-10 is not compatible with the following solutions:

  • HCl (hydrochloric acid)
  • NaOH (sodium hydroxide)
  • HNO₃ (nitric acid)
  • H₂SO₄ (sulphuric acid)
  • H₂O₂ (hydrogen peroxide)
  • NaClO (sodium hypochlorite)
