Accuracy
iWave – IR That Sees Through Glass and Teflon
For the first time, a single-mode microwave synthesizer utilizing iWave, an intelligent IR sensor that can see through glass and Teflon and measures the temperature of your sample NOT the vessel! Based on new technology this powerful update eliminates the need for costly and fragile internal fiber-optic probes while providing the most accurate and responsive temperature measurement available.
Observe Your Reaction
The 5 megapixel camera included standard with the Discover 2.0 can be used to record still images or video footage of reactions. Observation is a basic part of science, and this is the perfect tool for documentation and publication support.
Autosampler
Set up multiple reactions to run overnight with the 12- or 48- place autosampler. Both autosamplers can accommodate the 10 and 35 mL sealed vessels.
Vessels
Discover 2.0 offers the widest range of high-temperature, high-pressure sealed reaction vessels, standard. Perform pressurized reactions in either 10, 35, or 100 mL vials. Alternatively, run non-pressurized, open vessel reactions in standard laboratory glassware up to a 125 mL round-bottom flask. If your chemistry etches glass (HF or strong inorganic bases), use a silicon carbide vessel or even disposable Teflon®liners to get the best results.
Safety
Activent — Safe, Pressurized Reactions
The Discover 2.0 patented pressure management technology is the latest advance in automated pressure control and the safest way to perform pressurized reactions. This system automatically relieves gaseous byproducts as they form during the reaction, venting safely through exhaust tubing at the back of the system. This significantly reduces vial failures and allows your reactions to reach higher temperatures while requiring only an easy-to-use snap on cap without the need for crimping tools.
Flow Cells
Increase your reaction throughput with the 10 and 80 mL continuous flow cells.
Microwave Advantage
The Absolute Best Approach for Chemical Synthesis
A refined form of energy, microwaves provide unique heating benefits to synthetic chemistry.123 Reactions are heated volumetrically, directly, and instantaneously, faster and more efficiently than any other form of heating. These microwave characteristics give organic chemists better product yield and more control over reaction conditions for precise results in materials and inorganic chemistry. Microwave energy is the industry standard for medicinal chemistry, nanomaterials synthesis, and academic teaching labs, owing to these clear advantages.
Intuitive Software For Any Chemist
Fully customizable methods and cycles for any synthetic chemistry. User level access with full password protection and complete audit trail traceability. Method import reduces programming errors and allows easy access to niche chemistries.
Review Data Whenever, Wherever. Generate reports, review data, and export to a local network drive all from the Discover 2.0. No need for a USB to move information to and from the instrument.
Your Chemistry on Your Instrument. Fully customize all aspects of the Discover 2.0. Power control, method parameters, data management, user logins, color themes, sounds, unit name and many more parameters are all at your fingertips.
Complete Control of Your Reaction. The Discover 2.0 features more flexibility in control type than any other microwave synthesizer. Heat to a target temperature quickly and consistently with standard control modes or explore the nature of microwave heating and control reaction pressures with advanced programs.
