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
speedwave DIRC (direct infrared control)
Optical detection of each sample temperature

TFMTM-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
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
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.
