The Hettich CombiDancer – Vortex Vacuum Concentrator is designed to remove solvents from samples while under vacuum. Unlike traditional centrifugal evaporation methods, the CombiDancer uses a vortex motion with infrared heating and an intelligent vacuum pump to remove solvent from samples.
The Hettich CombiDancer concentrator offers easy and efficient loading and unloading with its robot-friendly sliding lid. The heated base plate attaches to the universal rack and sits in the 316 stainless steel chamber attached via its magnetically coupled feet.
The heating is activated by a temperature probe inside the evaporation chamber that is set by the user to the desired sample temperature. As evaporation occurs and the sample cools, the heating is activated to maintain the sample set temperature.
The vortex motion creates a larger surface area for solvent evaporation. By controlling the vortex, heating and vacuum; complex solvent mixtures can easily be concentrated to dryness.
The CombiDancer offers a variety of heating and cooling options and a variety of rack configurations for mixed volume concentrating.
The CombiDancers vortex operation and smart design provides many benefits as compared to traditional centrifugal evaporation.
View the progress of solvent evaporation, ability to pause process at anytime.
Faster evaporation. Creates larger surface area for solvent removal. No compression of solvent gases.
No mechanical coupling, easy to remove. Isolates drive mechanism from solvent vapors.
Removal of complex solvent mixtures such as Azeotropes.
For use with explosive gas mixtures or delicate samples
Prevents users from changing programs.
Replaces heat loss of a sample while under vacuum.
Stops bumping by controlling evaporation process. Reduces sample concentration time.
Low cost of ownership, longer life.
Used to regulate the infrared heating lamps and not overheat samples.
Lid slides sideways for easy access by robots. Software controlled via RS232 port with ports for Vacuum pump, PoleStar and Alarms.
Prevents condensation on chamber walls.
Easy to change or mix various container sizes in the same run. No imbalance issues.
Up to 99 user-defined programs.
High chemical resistance, easy cleaning, longer life
Monitor cooling coil to view ice build up.
