About

Biotage® V-10 Touch rapidly dries samples dissolved in both aqueous and organic solvents. It easily evaporates HPLC fractions from purification, high boiling point solvents from synthesis and features a dry-down onto silica technique for easier dry load capabilities prior to purification.


Detailed Specifications

Solvent Compatability: Boiling points from 30 °C to 160 °C (up to 205 °C with an external vacuum pump). The system is not suitable for solutions containing HCl at any concentration.
Heating: 20 ºC to 70 ºC
Rotational Speed: 3000 to 8000 rpm
Condenser: Refrigerated condenser temperature -25 ºC. Automated and manual draining; and manual defrost
Vial Compatibility: 30 and 20 mL scintillation vials and 8 and 4 mL vials
Solvent Reclamation: Up to 98% of solvent vapors under typical conditions


Safety Concerns

Biotage V-10 is not compatible with the following solutions:
HCl (hydrochloric acid)
NaOH (sodium hydroxide)
HNO₃ (nitric acid)
H₂SO₄ (sulphuric acid)
H₂O₂ (hydrogen peroxide)
NaClO (sodium hypochlorite)

Properly dispose of solvents.

Use the green Allen key to rotate clockwise and open the gripper of the carousel autosampler.
