The Master Science 180-Tube Vacuum Concentrator is built for laboratories that dry down large numbers of samples, concentrating up to 180 tubes of 1.5 or 2.0 ml in one run. It suits proteomics, genomics, molecular biology and natural product research, as well as residue analysis, HPLC, SPE and pharmaceutical work.
An electromagnetic drive with a dual overlapping rotor design provides high torque with low vibration, and a fully automatic vacuum controller holds the chamber between 0.1 and 100 mbar. With two-stage temperature control up to 100°C, four quick programme keys and 30 user programmes, the Master Science 180-Tube Vacuum Concentrator combines capacity with precise control.

Problems the Master Science 180-Tube Vacuum Concentrator Solves
Large sample sets overwhelm small concentrators and manual drying methods. The Master Science 180-Tube Vacuum Concentrator helps with:
- Too many runs for large sets: 180-tube capacity handles big batches at once.
- Solvent bumping from uncontrolled vacuum: Automatic vacuum regulation keeps evaporation steady.
- Overheating sensitive analytes: Two-stage temperature control with ±1°C accuracy.
- Vibration and wear: The electromagnetic drive runs with low vibration.
