Application Digestion System
The MPS 320 is a reliable and easy-to-operate microwave digestion system for PerkinElmers AA, ICP-OES, and ICP-MS instruments that accommodates a wide range of sample matrices and applications. It provides the choice of closed-vessel digestion, a requirement for working with volatile elements, or unique, easy-to-use and high-throughput auto-venting vessels, which allow digestion to continue when preset pressure is reached. And you can also select from four different rotor configurations depending on your needs. All of this, plus state-of-the-art temperature/pressure control and a variety of unique safety features.
Advanced Safety and MonitoringThe MPS MR-85/16 320 features multiple integrated safety sensors and advanced interlocks, ensuring operator protection at every stage. Real-time temperature and pressure are continuously monitored by optical/IR sensors and dedicated pressure transducers on all vessels, greatly reducing the risk of over-pressurization or overheating. The corrosion-resistant chamber and built-in exhaust and neutralization systems further enhance safe operation during even the most demanding digestion protocols.
User-Friendly Automation and EfficiencyWith a fully automatic reagent module and programmable method storage for up to 100 digestion processes, this system simplifies sample preparation. Simultaneous multi-vessel processing and an intuitive 7-inch color touchscreen make high-throughput workflows accessible and reproducible. Automated features, such as reagent addition and comprehensive data logging, minimize manual effort and improve consistency across batches.
Reliable Construction and VersatilityConstructed from high-purity PTFE, PFA, and quartz components within a stainless steel, corrosion-resistant chamber, the MPS MR-85/16 320 is built to withstand aggressive acids and high pressures. Its broad measurement range accommodates a variety of sample types and volumes, supporting both small-scale and large batch operations. Designed for Indian laboratories, it is suitable for dealers, exporters, and researchers in both academic and industrial environments.
