Laboratory Scale Supercritical Fluid System - Up to 4 Vessels
The Spe-ed™ SFE-4 is one of the original SFEs in our series of instruments for supercritical fluid extraction. Built in conjunction with the USDA¹, these systems were designed to meet the rigorous needs of day-to-day use in the research lab. They are simple to operate, fast and affordable, with unique features not found in other SCF systems.
The Spe-ed SFE-4 oven has the capacity for up to 4 high-pressure vessels.
The system features:
- temperatures to 240°C*
- pressure up to 10,000 psi (690 BAR)
- pump: up to 400mL/min flow rate**
- independent control of flow rates to each vessel
- vessels from 5mL to 1 liter
- fully-adjustable, non-clogging, variable restrictors
- parallel processing capabilities of between 1 to 4 vessels depending upon the model
- collection into SPE cartridges or standard glassware
- in-line trapping capabilities
- modifier addition capability
- multiple flow path capability
- extract directly from liquid samples
