Fully-automated microwave digestion system using Single Reaction Chamber technology

Patented ultraCLAVE microwave digestion system achieves extraordinary performance capabilities combining SRC technology with the highest throughput of the biggest microwave reaction vessel of the market.

The patented Milestone ultraCLAVE achieves extraordinary performance capabilities by combining direct microwave heating in a high pressure reactor, which acts simultaneously as microwave cavity and vessel. Microwave energy is introduced into the reactor through a unique microwave port. This focused-multimode cavity design ensures maximum sample heating efficiency. Heat generated in the reactor is removed by a re-circulating cooling system, and the stainless steel vessel remains at approximately room temperature throughout the entire heating cycle. The ultraCLAVE is designed for simplicity of use. Loading a rack of samples into the chamber is the only manual operation required. The reaction chamber is sealed, pressurized, heated, cooled, vented, and opened all under computer control. The system dramatically reduces the labor compared to conventional microwave systems.
