Flexible programming In comparison with previous models, the Ultravap® Levante has a smaller footprint, allowing better access and saving valuable bench space. The evaporation table is able to rise under the control of a stepper motor as the drying process proceeds. Precision Swiss-made stepper motors are used in all Ultravaps to precisely control the upward movement of the stage in 0.1cm increments, ensuring that with careful programming, the evaporator head remains just above the surface of the liquid to be removed for optimum efficiency. An on-board digital flow controller allows accurate...

Any Ultravap® Levante can be operated directly over the built-in RS232 link, so that programming can be carried out remotely and start/stop commands sent from a network. Station I.D. numbers can be set and stored for each unit. Units can easily be taken out of remote control mode for maintenance or where a randomaccess programme is required. The Ultravap® Levante comes with an RS232 connection and a remote command set. Whilst not sporting the smart plate “shuttle” of the premium Ultravap® Mistral, it is still possible to connect to and operate from a robot liquid handling station using the Ultravap®...

Solvent compatibility The Ultravap® Levante is supplied with an evaporator head of your choice, which may be interchanged quickly and easily with a head of a different pattern as your workflow demands. With a choice of 96 straight or 96 spiral needles, plus 24, 48 and 384 straight needles, the sphere of application for Ultravap® Levante is huge. Most common chromatography solvents can be evaporated with ease, including dichloromethane, methanol, acetonitrile and hexane. The nitrogen blow-down method is not, however, suitable for high-boiling point solvents such as DMF, DMSO and water. It is not...
