Porvair Sciences Ultravap® Mistral 500149

The Ultravap® Mistral 500149 is a robot-compatible blowdown evaporator designed to automate solvent evaporation and dry-down of samples in microplates, vials and tubes. The unit interfaces directly with liquid-handling robots via a flat-front profile and plate shuttle for loading and retrieving plates, and includes integral fume management and programmable control for multi-stage drying. The 500149 model is supplied without a needle head and operates on 110/230V.

Key Features:

• Model: Ultravap® Mistral 500149 (supplied without needle head)
• Voltage: 110/230V
• Robot-compatible with plate shuttle for interfacing with Hamilton, Tecan, PerkinElmer, Beckman Coulter and Agilent robots
• Accepts interchangeable 24, 48, 96 or 384 needle heads (sold separately)
• Programmable storage for 15 methods with up to 5 timed stages per method (controls gas temperature, gas flow rate, needle depth)
• Integral fume management with built-in duct adaptor and fan; safety micro-switches for shuttle obstruction detection
• Programmable gas temperature up to 80 °C and user-defined flow control

Advantages:

• Enables full automation of the dry-down step to remove a laboratory bottleneck and integrate with liquid-handling workstations
• High throughput and reproducible evaporation through advanced head technology directing gas into each well simultaneously
• Built-in fume extraction and safety interlocks protect users and robotic platforms during operation
• Flexible programming and multi-unit CAN bus control permit synchronized runs and remote operation for production environments
