The PREPFC™ is Gilson's latest preparative fraction collector with the ability to collect at flow rates up to 200 mL/min. It has a narrow footprint and a innovative simplistic method for elevating the tray to accommodate a large range of vessel sizes. Features: - Four adjustable height settings for pan location allows for optimizing fraction collector for varying tube heights
- Small footprint with large capacity: (W)19.7" x (D)14.3" x (H)12.7". Fits into almost any size fume hood
- Can accommodate 200-series, 20-series or new 90-series racks for increased versatility in bed capacity and vessel accommodation
-(2) 200-series racks
-(4) 20-series racks - Vessel capacity per PREPFC™
- (240) 13 x 100 mm (10 mL) test tubes
- (192) 16 x 100 mm tubes
- (176) 18 x 150 mm test tubes
- (80) 25 x 200 mm test tubes
- (27) 28 x 57 mm (25 mL) Scintillation vials
- (54) 30 x 115 (50 mL) conical bottom tubes
- (18) 48 x 113 mm (125 mL) bottles
- (11) 500 mL bottles
- (8) 1 Liter bottles - High flow fraction collection valve for accommodating flow rates up to 200 mL/min
- Increased X/Y speed for decreased time wasted moving from tube to tube reduces sample loss
