News from LabRulezLCMS Library - Week 21, 2026

If you’ve reviewed your laboratory’s operational budget recently, you have likely noticed a troubling trend: the cost of keeping your instruments running is climbing, and nitrogen gas is a major culprit.According to Organomation’s newly released <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://explore.organomation.com/nitrogen-usage-survey-2025-download">Nitrogen Usage 2025 Survey Report</a>, you are not alone in this frustration. In fact, 35% of laboratories ranked high costs as their number one frustration with their current nitrogen supply — overshadowing safety, logistics, and maintenance concerns.With 96% of labs expecting their nitrogen demand to increase or remain steady over the next three years, waiting for prices to drop isn’t a viable strategy. To protect your budget, you need to understand why prices are surging and, more importantly, how to insulate your lab from the volatility.<h3>The "Perfect Storm" Driving Prices Up</h3>As a chemist, you know that nitrogen is abundant in the atmosphere. However, the industrial process of separating, purifying, compressing, and transporting it is energy-intensive and tied heavily to global markets. Three key factors are driving the 2025 price surge:<h4>1. Rising Energy Costs</h4>While nitrogen itself is free, the energy required to produce high-purity nitrogen gas (via fractional distillation) is not. Industrial gas manufacturing is heavily reliant on energy prices. In 2025, U.S. natural gas prices for industrial sectors have seen significant volatility, with some forecasts showing double-digit percentage increases for power plants due to export demands and tightening domestic supply. When the cost of energy rises,<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/energy/high-rising-natural-gas-costs-may-spur-fresh-climb-us-coal-use-2025-12-03/"> gas suppliers pass those costs directly to the consumer</a>.<h4>2. The Logistics Premium</h4>If you rely on high-pressure cylinders or liquid dewars, you aren't just paying for gas; you are paying for diesel, driver wages, and truck maintenance. Logistics frustrations were a top complaint in our 2025 survey, particularly for labs using liquid dewars.<ul><li>Delivery Fees &amp; Surcharges: Fuel surcharges are now a standard line item on many invoices, fluctuating weekly with the oil market.</li><li>Cylinder Rental: The "rent" for holding steel cylinders often creeps up annually, regardless of how much gas you actually consume.</li></ul><h4>3. Hidden Waste (The "Boil-Off" Tax)</h4>For labs using liquid nitrogen dewars, the "price per liter" is deceptive. Liquid nitrogen constantly boils off to maintain its temperature. If your lab uses dewars for gaseous applications (like evaporation), you are paying for gas that vanishes into the room before it ever reaches your instrument. Our survey found that while dewars nominally cost $2.06/liter, the effective cost is often higher due to this inevitable waste.<h3>The Data: Cylinders vs. Generators</h3>The most striking finding from our 2025 Survey Report was the massive price disparity between supply methods. When we analyzed the average cost per liter across 78 laboratories, the data was clear:<h5>Nitrogen Source: Average Cost Per Liter</h5><ul><li>Gas Cylinders: $2.79</li><li>Liquid Dewars: $2.06</li><li>Lab-Scale Generator: $0.70</li></ul>Laboratories relying on cylinders are paying nearly 400% more per liter than those generating their own gas. Over the course of a year, this difference can amount to thousands of dollars in operational waste.<h3>How to Reduce the Price Tag: A Two-Step Strategy</h3>You cannot control the global energy market or supply chain logistics. However, you can control how you source and use your nitrogen.<h4>Step 1: Cut the Cord (Switch to Generation)</h4>The single most effective way to lower your nitrogen spend is to stop buying it in tanks. While the upfront cost of equipment can sometimes be a hurdle for capital budgets, new financial models are making this transition accessible for labs of all sizes.<h5>Why Generation Wins on Cost</h5>A nitrogen generator, like the Organomation NITRO-GEN, separates nitrogen from your lab's existing compressed air supply using a hollow-fiber membrane. Once installed, your "cost per liter" drops to essentially zero—you are only paying for the electricity to run the compressor.<ul><li>Rapid ROI: Most labs see a return on investment in 12 to 18 months by<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.organomation.com/how-much-could-i-save-switching-to-a-nitrogen-generator"> generating nitrogen</a>. After this break-even point, your nitrogen supply becomes a fixed asset rather than a monthly liability.</li><li>Operational Freedom: Weighing under 20 lbs and wall-mountable, the NITRO-GEN <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://gcms.labrulez.com/products/1902">N2 generator</a> produces up to 20 L/min of gas, sufficient to support blowdown evaporators with up to 48 sample positions.</li></ul><h5>Overcoming the "Sticker Shock" with Lease-to-Own</h5>Historically, the barrier to entry for nitrogen generators has been the initial purchase price. To solve this, Organomation has introduced a Lease-to-Own program designed to align equipment costs with your operating budget rather than your capital reserves.This program transforms a large capital expenditure into a manageable monthly operating expense. Unlike standard rental agreements where payments are lost forever, this program allows you to build equity.<ul><li>Immediate Savings: You can install the unit and stop paying cylinder rental fees immediately, often letting the operational savings offset the lease payments.</li><li>Path to Ownership: At the end of the lease term, you own the equipment outright—often for a nominal final payment (as low as $1).</li><li>Preserve Capital: By spreading the cost over time, you keep your cash reserves available for other critical research needs or staffing.</li></ul>By leveraging a lease-to-own model, you can "cut the cord" on gas contracts today without waiting for next year’s capital budget approval.<h4>Step 2: Optimize Your Usage (Stop Wasting Gas)</h4>Even with a cheap supply, wasting gas is bad science and bad business. especially if you use nitrogen for sample concentration (blowdown evaporation).<ul><li>Use Individual Flow Control: Many basic evaporators blow gas into every position, regardless of whether a sample is present. High-quality units (like the<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://gcms.labrulez.com/products?category=3&amp;manufacturerItems=540&amp;search=N-EVAP"> N-EVAP</a>) feature individual needle valves for each sample position. Rule of thumb: If you are running 10 samples in a 24-position unit, ensure the other 14 needles are closed.</li><li>Check for Leaks: It sounds basic, but a loose fitting on a regulator can waste cylinders of gas over a weekend. A simple "snoop test" (soapy water) on your connections every quarter is a zero-cost maintenance habit that saves money.</li><li>Optimize Bath Temperature: In nitrogen blowdown evaporation, gas flow and temperature work together. If your water bath is too cool, you have to blow gas for longer to <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://blog.organomation.com/blog/optimum-temperature-for-nitrogen-evaporation-instruments">achieve dryness</a>. Ensuring your bath is at the optimal temperature for your solvent (e.g., 35-40°C for DCM) reduces the total time the gas needs to run.</li></ul><h3>Conclusion</h3>The era of "cheap" delivered gas is likely behind us. As the 2025 survey data shows, labs sticking to the status quo of cylinders and dewars are facing rising costs and logistical headaches. By transitioning to on-demand generation and optimizing your evaporation workflows, you can insulate your lab from market volatility and keep your budget focused on research, not utility bills.<blockquote>Want to see the full data?

Why Nitrogen Is Costing Labs More Than Ever — And How to Reduce the High Price Tag

<h4>Light can heal. Light can power devices. But light can also destroy molecules.</h4>🎤Kshmeya ChopraIn this episode of Concentrating on Chromatography, we sit down with Kshmeya Chopra to explore how phthalocyanines — highly conjugated macrocycles used in photodynamic therapy, sensing, and organic electronics — respond to prolonged light exposure.Using UV–Vis spectroscopy, Kshmeya and her research team systematically investigated how:<ul><li>The central metal (Zn²⁺ vs In³⁺)</li><li>Degree of fluorination</li><li>Axial ligands</li><li>Solvent environment (EtOAc vs DMSO)</li></ul>By monitoring changes in the Q-band absorbance over time and calculating extinction coefficients using Beer–Lambert law, the team uncovered clear structure–property relationships governing light-induced degradation.<h4>We discuss:</h4>🔬 How UV–Vis spectroscopy tracks molecular breakdown 🧪 Aggregation vs true chemical degradation ☀️ Why fluorination improves photostability ⚖️ Zinc vs indium coordination effects 📊 Extinction coefficients and what they reveal about macrocycle behavior 🧬 How LC–MS and HRMS could identify degradation products 🎓 Advice for undergraduate students entering photochemistry and analytical researchThis conversation bridges spectroscopy, materials chemistry, and analytical science — showing how subtle molecular design choices dramatically impact stability and real-world application potential.If you’re interested in photochemistry, UV–Vis analysis, chromatography, or rational molecular design, this episode is for you.<h3>Video Transcription</h3><div><div><section><div><div><div><div><div><div>In this interview, Kshmeya Chopra, a pre-med sophomore at the University of Tampa, discusses her summer research project conducted at Seton Hall University. The work focused on the photostability of phthalocyanines—highly conjugated macrocyclic compounds widely used in photodynamic therapy, sensing, catalysis, and optoelectronics. The study investigated how structural factors such as the central metal ion and fluorination influence resistance to light-induced degradation.<h4>What Are Phthalocyanines?</h4>Phthalocyanines are large aromatic macrocycles characterized by extensive π-electron conjugation. This structure enables strong absorption in the red and near-infrared regions of the electromagnetic spectrum, making them attractive for a variety of advanced applications, including:<ul><li>Photodynamic therapy</li><li>Optoelectronic devices</li><li>Catalysis</li><li>Chemical and biological sensing</li></ul>One reason these compounds are particularly interesting is that relatively small structural modifications—such as changing the central metal atom or introducing substituents—can significantly alter their physical and chemical properties.<h4>Why Photostability Matters</h4>Many practical applications expose phthalocyanines to continuous illumination for extended periods. If the molecules degrade rapidly under light exposure, they lose functionality and may generate undesirable degradation products.According to Chopra, photostability is therefore directly linked to both the effectiveness and safety of these materials, especially in biomedical applications such as photodynamic therapy where prolonged light exposure is an essential part of treatment.<h4>Research Objective</h4>The central goal of the project was to determine how two structural parameters affect photostability:<ul><li>The identity of the central metal (zinc versus indium)</li><li>The degree of fluorination</li></ul>The researchers aimed to understand whether these modifications could improve resistance to light-induced degradation and therefore enhance long-term performance in practical applications.<h4>Monitoring Degradation Using UV-Vis Spectroscopy</h4><h5>Why the Q Band Was Selected</h5>The study used UV-Visible spectroscopy to monitor photodegradation, focusing specifically on the Q band.The Q band represents the principal electronic transition within phthalocyanine molecules and is highly sensitive to structural changes. As degradation occurs, the Q-band signal typically:<ul><li>Decreases in intensity</li><li>Shifts in wavelength</li></ul>These changes provide a convenient and reliable indicator of molecular degradation over time.<h4>Experimental Design</h4>The photostability experiments were designed to simulate realistic light exposure conditions.<h5>Experimental Conditions</h5><ul><li>A solar simulator lamp operating at approximately two-sun intensity was used.</li><li>Samples were irradiated for two hours.</li><li>UV and infrared filters were incorporated to minimize heating effects.</li><li>Measurements were collected throughout the exposure period to monitor degradation kinetics.</li></ul>This setup allowed the researchers to investigate photochemical degradation while minimizing thermal artifacts.<h4>Spectroscopy Versus Spectrometry</h4>During the interview, Chopra explained the distinction between spectroscopy and spectrometry:<h5>Spectroscopy</h5>Measures interactions between matter and electromagnetic radiation, such as:<ul><li>UV-Vis absorption</li><li>Infrared absorption</li><li>Fluorescence</li></ul><h5>Spectrometry</h5>Typically involves ion generation and mass analysis, such as:<ul><li>Mass spectrometry (MS)</li><li>LC-MS</li><li>GC-MS</li></ul>The project relied on spectroscopy rather than spectrometry because the objective was to monitor optical changes associated with molecular degradation.<h4>Potential Role of LC-MS in Future Studies</h4>While UV-Vis spectroscopy successfully monitored overall degradation, it could not identify the degradation products formed during irradiation.For future investigations, Chopra suggested employing:<ul><li>Liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-MS)</li><li>High-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS)</li><li>Tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS)</li></ul>These techniques would allow separation and identification of degradation products while providing exact mass measurements and structural information.<h4>Influence of Solvent on Photostability</h4><h5>Role of DMSO and Acetate-Based Systems</h5>The study examined the influence of solvent environment on degradation behavior.According to Chopra:<ul><li>DMSO tends to maintain phthalocyanines in a predominantly monomeric state.</li><li>Acetate-containing systems promote molecular aggregation.</li></ul>Aggregation significantly influences photostability because aggregated molecules can partially shield one another from light exposure.<h4>Aggregation as a Protective Mechanism</h4>The researchers observed lower degradation rates in systems where aggregation occurred.These findings support the hypothesis that aggregation provides protection against photodegradation by reducing effective light exposure and limiting photochemical reactions.<h4>Characterizing Degradation Products</h4>When discussing analytical strategies beyond UV-Vis spectroscopy, Chopra emphasized the value of mass spectrometry.<h5>Preferred Workflow</h5><ol><li>LC separation of intact phthalocyanines and degradation products</li><li>HRMS measurement for exact mass determination</li><li>MS/MS experiments for structural characterization</li></ol>Although NMR spectroscopy could be useful for purified products, limited solubility and complex mixtures make MS-based techniques more practical during early-stage investigations.<h4>Recommended Chromatographic Approach</h4>For separating intact phthalocyanines from degradation products, Chopra identified reverse-phase chromatography as the most suitable option.<h5>Why Reverse-Phase LC?</h5>Intact phthalocyanines are:<ul><li>Large</li><li>Highly hydrophobic</li><li>Strongly conjugated</li></ul>In contrast, degradation products are expected to be:<ul><li>Smaller</li><li>More polar</li></ul>This polarity difference should provide effective chromatographic separation.Alternative techniques present limitations:<ul><li>Normal-phase chromatography may suffer from solubility challenges.</li><li>Size-exclusion chromatography may not provide sufficient resolution between structurally related species.</li></ul><h4>Analytical Challenges</h4>Phthalocyanines present several analytical difficulties:<h5>Aggregation</h5>Aggregation complicates both spectroscopic and chromatographic measurements.<h5>Limited Solubility</h5>Poor solubility can hinder sample preparation and analytical reproducibility.<h5>Surface Adsorption</h5>The compounds may adsorb onto instrument surfaces or chromatographic columns, resulting in:<ul><li>Peak tailing</li><li>Signal loss</li><li>Reduced quantitative accuracy</li></ul>Careful solvent selection and concentration control are therefore essential.<h4>Major Research Challenges</h4>The most difficult aspect of the project was maintaining consistent experimental conditions while accounting for aggregation effects.A key challenge involved distinguishing:<ul><li>True chemical degradation</li><li>Spectral changes caused by aggregation</li><li>Solvent-induced spectral variations</li></ul>Achieving reproducible results across different compounds and solvent systems required careful experimental control and extensive troubleshooting.<h4>Advice for Undergraduate Researchers</h4>Drawing from her own experience as a sophomore undergraduate researcher, Chopra offered several recommendations:<h5>Focus on Fundamentals</h5>Strong understanding of spectroscopy and physical chemistry is essential.<h5>Understand the Instrumentation</h5>Learning why instruments behave as they do is more valuable than simply collecting data.<h5>Be Patient</h5>Research frequently involves troubleshooting and unexpected outcomes.<h5>Stay Persistent</h5>Success often depends on perseverance and careful interpretation rather than immediate results.<h4>Broader Significance</h4>Chopra emphasized that photostability studies extend beyond academic curiosity.Understanding how phthalocyanines degrade under illumination directly affects their suitability for biomedical applications such as photodynamic therapy. Improved photostability can enhance treatment effectiveness while reducing the formation of potentially harmful degradation products.Consequently, investigations into degradation pathways have important implications for both material design and patient safety.<h4>Conclusion</h4>This study demonstrates how relatively subtle structural modifications—such as changing the central metal ion or fluorination pattern—can influence the photostability of phthalocyanines. Through UV-Vis monitoring of Q-band behavior, the researchers showed that solvent environment and molecular aggregation significantly affect degradation behavior. Future work incorporating LC-MS, HRMS, and MS/MS analysis could provide deeper insight into degradation pathways and guide the design of more robust photosensitive materials for biomedical and technological applications.</div></div></div></div></div></div></section></div></div><blockquote>This text has been automatically transcribed from a video presentation using AI technology.

Organomation NITRO-GEN+ Nitrogen Generator

The NITRO-GEN+ Nitrogen Generator is designed to satisfy the needs of the LC-MS and sample preparation fields.

The NITRO-GEN+ Nitrogen Generator is designed to satisfy the needs of the LC-MS and sample preparation fields. The NITRO-GEN+ is compatible with all Organomation nitrogen evaporators up to 100 sample positions, along with most LC-MS analyzers on the market. It relies on Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) technology to separate nitrogen from the air. The unit uses molecular sieves to remove oxygen, water, and trace hydrocarbons, leaving a stream of high purity nitrogen gas. Nitrogen is produced by utilizing a combination of this Carbon Molecular Sieve technology along with high and low pressure compressors.This unique technology allows the nitrogen to be produced at a low pressure and an ambient temperature, eliminating the need for high pressure cylinders which can be dangerous for the technicians handling them. The low pressure also ensures a longer compressor life, which reduces the time and money spent on regular maintenance. The generator's simple installation and operation combined with its superior reliability makes the NITRO-GEN+ a staple in any laboratory.<h4>Standard features</h4><ul><li>Integrated low noise, oil free compressors</li><li>On-demand supply 24/7</li><li>Proprietary carbon molecular sieve technology</li><li>Complete "plug and play" LC-MS solution</li><li>Two-year complete product warranty or 8,000 hour run-time warranty</li></ul><h4>Compatible features</h4><ul><li>All Organomation evaporators up to 100 sample positions</li><li>Most LC-MS analyzers on the market</li></ul><h4>Specification</h4><h5>Key Features:</h5><ul><li>Flow Rate: Up to 35 L/min</li><li>Nitrogen Purity:<ul><li>Up to 99% at ≤ 25 L/min</li><li>Up to 98% at &gt; 25 L/min</li></ul></li><li>Dewpoint: -58 °F (-50 °C)</li><li>Output Pressure: 0 – 116 PSI (0 – 8 bar)</li><li>Warm-Up Time: 20 minutes</li><li>Technology: Carbon molecular sieve (CMS)</li></ul><h5>Electrical &amp; Safety:</h5><ul><li>Power Supply:<ul><li>110–120 V, 60 Hz</li><li>220–240 V, 50 Hz</li></ul></li><li>Total Wattage: 1800 W</li><li>Protection Rating:<ul><li>Electrical: IP20</li><li>Mechanical Impact: IK08</li></ul></li><li>Noise Level: 55 dBA at 1 meter</li></ul><h5>Dimensions &amp; Weight:</h5><ul><li>Size (W × D × H): 18.9 × 33 × 25 in (48 × 83.8 × 63.5 cm)</li><li>Weight: 198 lbs (90 kg)</li></ul><h5>Connections &amp; Certifications:</h5><ul><li>Outlet Connection: 6 mm OD compression or 1/4"</li><li>Certifications: CE, FCC, MET (UL and CSA compliant)</li></ul><h5>Environmental Specifications:</h5><ul><li>Operating Temperature: 59–95 °F (15–35 °C)</li><li>Relative Humidity:<ul><li>0–80% (non-condensing)</li><li>0–99% (with condensation drain)</li></ul></li><li>Altitude: &lt; 2000 m (800–1150 hPa)</li></ul>Warranty: 2 years or 8,000-hour runtime (whichever comes first)

Organomation NITRO-GEN Nitrogen Generator

The NITRO-GEN generator was developed with Organomation’s nitrogen evaporators in mind to provide nitrogen generation for sample concentration. The generator is lightweight and easy to set up, requiring only a source of compressed air to run. This unit is an ideal choice for labs with an in-house compressed air source.The generator uses a hollow-fiber membrane to convert compressed air to a stream of 95-99% pure nitrogen gas. The hollow-fiber membrane consists of a series of narrow, semipermeable tubes in a porous membrane. As compressed air travels through the fibers, oxygen and water vapor permeate the membrane and are vented off, leaving a steam of high purity nitrogen gas. At up to 99% purity, the resulting nitrogen gas stream can be used in a variety of sample preparation applications.<h4>NITRO-GEN</h4>The NITRO-GEN produces up to 20 L/min of nitrogen gas and is recommended for evaporation of up to 48 sample positions.&nbsp;<h4>Standard features</h4><ul><li>Adjustable outlet pressure regulator, 0-100 psi</li><li>Dual Stage clean air filtration system</li><li>Requires an oil-less compressed air source</li></ul><h4>Advantages</h4><ul><li>Quick Start-Up Time - Nitrogen is produced instantly, no heat up time</li><li>Saves Energy - No electrical power needed</li><li>Engineered Design - Life expectancy is more than 10 years</li><li>Low Maintenance - Serviceable clean air filter</li><li>Compact and Lightweight - Small footprint conserves valuable bench space</li><li>Reduced CO2 Emissions - No heaters, less energy required</li></ul><h4>Specification</h4><h5>Key Features:</h5><ul><li>Flow Rate: Up to 20 L/min</li><li>Technology: Hollow-fiber membrane</li><li>Output Pressure: Adjustable 0 – 100 PSI</li><li>Electrical Requirements: None (no power required)</li><li>Noise Level: &lt; 40 dBA (virtually silent when connected to an instrument)</li></ul><h5>Inlet Air Requirements:</h5><ul><li>Maximum Inlet Pressure: 150 PSI (10.3 bar)</li><li>Particulate Filtration: ≤ 0.01 µm</li><li>Oil Vapor Content: &lt; 0.01 mg/m³ (&lt; 0.01 ppm)</li><li>Relative Humidity: &lt; 100% (non-condensing)</li><li>Air Quality: Clean, contaminant-free air</li></ul><h5>Environmental Conditions:</h5><ul><li>Operating Temperature: 36–122 °F (2–50 °C)</li><li>Ambient Pressure: Atmospheric</li></ul><h5>Dimensions &amp; Weight:</h5><ul><li>Size (W × D × H): 9.5 × 8 × 19.5 in (241 × 203 × 495 mm)</li><li>Weight: 13.25 lbs (6 kg)</li></ul>Warranty: 1 year

Organomation S-EVAP+ Vacuum Evaporator

The S-EVAP+ is an efficient way to concentrate multiple large samples at once. It is designed to be a smarter, higher capacity alternative to rotary evaporation. 

The S-EVAP+ is an efficient way to concentrate multiple large samples at once. It is designed to be a smarter, higher capacity alternative to rotary evaporation. Instead of only being able to evaporate 1 sample at a time like in a rotary unit, the S-EVAP+ allows you to evaporate up to 10 samples at once, for a faster, more efficient process. The S-EVAP+ takes all the benefits of the original S-EVAP-RB evaporator including the digital control box and combines it with vacuum technology to accommodate a wider range of solvents with high boiling points.Suitable for all solvents with a boiling point below 115 °C.The number of samples you're able to evaporate at once depends on your flask size and solvent volume.

Organomation 48 Position MULTIVAP Nitrogen Evaporator

The 48 position MULTIVAP nitrogen evaporator is a high temperature dry block model. This instrument contains a rectangular gas distribution system mounted on a frame and dual post assembly.

The 48 position MULTIVAP nitrogen evaporator is a high temperature dry block model. This instrument contains a rectangular gas distribution system mounted on a frame and dual post assembly. The manifold delivers nitrogen gas to the needles or glass pipettes, which direct the gas onto the sample’s surface. This method results in rapid solvent evaporation and sample concentration. In order to conserve nitrogen gas, the manifold has a toggle switch for every row of 6 samples, which allows individual rows to be shut off when evaporating batches of less than 48 samples. Nitrogen gas flow is also controlled by an adjustable flow meter and a built-in pressure regulator.The 48 position MULTIVAP parallel evaporator uses a heated aluminum dry block to reach evaporative temperatures ranging from 30°C to 120°C. An unheated version is available for evaporations that will be performed at ambient temperatures.

Organomation MICROVAP Triple Microplate Evaporator

The triple plate MICROVAP microplate evaporator combines three 96 needle manifolds and three heat blocks into a single platform.

The triple plate MICROVAP microplate evaporator combines three 96 needle manifolds and three heat blocks into a single platform. This allows for simultaneous evaporation of up to three 96 well plates. The triple plate MICROVAP’s solid aluminum heating units provide consistent temperature for uniform evaporation rates throughout all three plates.Each 96-needle manifold is equipped with its own toggle switch to shut down gas flow when all three microplates are not in use to conserve nitrogen gas, saving laboratories money. A convenient dual band spring hoist assembly ensures ease of use for the operator when lowering and raising the needle manifolds. The digital temperature controller is easy to read and allows temperature to be controlled with an accuracy of +/- 2 °C up to the maximum temperature of 130°C. &nbsp;An adjustable 0-100 LPM flow meter is for precise control over the nitrogen gas delivery system.&nbsp;<ul><li>High Throughput: Evaporate up to three 96 well plates at once</li><li>Ease of Use: Temperature and gas levels are easily set using the digital temperature controller and gas flow meter</li><li>Precise: Digital controls allow exact temperature regulation</li><li>Cost-Effective: Conserve nitrogen by turning gas flow on and off at each plate</li></ul><img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/Organomation_MICROVAP_Triple_Microplate_Evaporator_2_d67a3e5ffd.jpg" alt="Organomation MICROVAP Triple Microplate Evaporator." srcset="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/thumbnail_Organomation_MICROVAP_Triple_Microplate_Evaporator_2_d67a3e5ffd.jpg 156w," sizes="100vw" width="1400" height="1400"><h3>STANDARD FEATURES</h3><ul><li>Adjustable flow meter</li><li>Digital temperature control</li><li>High temperature limit switch</li><li>High pressure tubing</li><li>2-inch x 19-gauge needles</li><li>Nitrogen filter</li><li>Anodized aluminum dry block&nbsp;</li></ul><h3>OPTIONS&nbsp;</h3><ul><li>220v wiring harness (Option Code -2), Cat# 11803-2</li><li>Z-Purge/positive pressure purge case (Option Code -Z), Cat# 11803-Z</li><li>Acid resistant coating on instrument and needles (Option Code -RT), Cat# 11803-RT</li></ul><h3>SPECS</h3><h4>12p N-EVAP (Dry Block)</h4><ul><li>Heater Type: Dry Block</li><li>Instrument Catalog Number: 11803</li><li>Number of Sample Plates: 3</li><li>Overall Dimension (w × d × h): 21.0 × 13.0 × 13.0 in / 53.3 × 33.02 × 33.02 cm</li><li>Gas Manifold Layout: Triple 8 × 12 Array</li><li>Center to Center Spacing Between Positions: 0.354 in / 9.0 mm</li><li>Microplate Dimensions (w × d): 3.375 × 5.0 in / 8.5 × 13 cm</li><li>Gas Flow Control: Single toggle valve</li><li>Gas Flow Meter Range: 0–100 L/min</li><li>Stainless Steel Needles (Length × Gauge): 2.0 in × 19 ga / 51 mm × 19 ga</li><li>Hoist Assembly: Dual Band Spring Hoist Assembly</li><li>Standard Gas Input Range: 30 psig</li><li>Gas Input Range with Optional Pressure Reducing Regulator: 30–160 psig</li></ul><h5>Heating Device Specs</h5><ul><li>Model Number: 54243</li><li>Outside Dimensions (w × d × h): 24.0 × 9.5 × 3.0 in / 61.0 × 22.9 × 7.6 cm</li><li>Total Wattage: 540 W</li><li>Temperature Range: 40–130 °C</li><li>Temperature Controller Type: Digital Electronic with LED Display</li><li>Controller Accuracy: ±2 °C</li></ul><h3>ACCESSORIES</h3><ul><li>Pressure reducing regulator, 30-150 psi in, 0-30 psi out</li></ul>
