Advantages

Lowest operating costs - guaranteed

Thanks to the unsurpassed durability of the vessels, they are included in the warranty of the basic unit. The warranty can be extended to 5 years.

Simple, intuitive operation

Vessels are easy to open, close and clean manually. Sensors do not need to be connected and the software is intuitive to use.

SafePrep - Meets the highest safety standards

The real-time recording of all reaction parameters avoids critical situations. The gas collection system avoids emissions into the oven or room air.

More safety and comfort for users

  • SwingTop loading and electronic cover lock

  • the digestion vessels are individually inserted into the rotor and removed again - the transport of a fully loaded rotor is therefore not necessary

Real-Time Pressure Monitoring
Speedwave XPERT optical pressure monitoring OPC

speedwave OPC (optical pressure control)

Optical detection of the internal vessel pressure

  • no reference vessels

  • no evapuration into the oven chamber

  • expandable to several vessels at any time

Real-Time Vessel Temperature Monitoring

speedwave OTC (optical temperature cut-off)

Optical detection of the vessel surface temperature

  • increased safety and lifetime of digestion vessels

  • individually programmable upper temperature limit

Real-time Sample Temperature Monitoring

  • no reference vessel

  • no additional cabeling required

TFMTM-PTFE Vessels
Speedwave XPERT PTFE vessels

Vessels from Berghof significantly reduce the running costs for microwave digestions. Due to high-quality processing and outstanding lifetime, the cost per digestion for Berghof vessels is € 0.30 only.

In comparison: Vessels from other vendors generate average costs of € 1.00 per digestion. This means that the running costs can be reduced by approx. € 7,000 for 10,000 digestion cycles.

Intuitive Operation
Speedwave XPERT operation

Control of the speedwave XPERT via

  • 7" controller with graphic illustration
  • mobile devices or PC/notebook
  • Optional 21 CFR Part 11 conform Software.
Corrosion protection reduces repair costs
Speedwave XPERT neutralization unit

In operation, all vessels are connected to a gas collection system, which collects any acid vapors released and fed to the exhaust air. Optionally neutralized in a neutralization unit. This effectively prevents acid vapors from entering the furnace chamber and thus corrosion of various sensors and components. This reduces repair costs significantly.

Solvent Safety

For heating highly flammable solvents in a microwave field, special safety precautions are required. An air flow monitor and a solvent sensor are integrated in the exhaust connection. This exhaust unit can be easily installed or removed in tow simple steps.

This makes the conversion from a digestion to an extraction system extremely simple.

  • Permanent oven ventilation
    • 100-fold air exchange per minute
  • Air flow monitoring
    • Safety shut-down in case of low oven ventilation
  • Solvent Sensor
    • Detects solvent vapour in the exhaust
    • Safety shut-down if concentration exceeds 10% of lower explosion limit
Stirring

A magnetic stirrer below the oven cavity agitates stirring bars in each vessel. Stirring is recommended for solvent extraction in order to improve recoveries and reproducibility.

Carboflon heating elements

Heating elements made of 25% Graphite in PTFE readily absorb microwave irradiation and thus improve heating performance with non-polar solvents. Simply add one piece into each vessel. Could also be used together with stirring bars
