SFC-M5 250

Sepiatec’s SFC-M5 250 system is a preparative system for separating chiral and achiral samples using supercritical fluid chromatography.

The SFC-M5 250 system consists of the main module and the collector module. Both modules form a functional unit that can be configured in a variety of ways with different equipment.

The main module can be equipped with up to three high pressure pumps, a CO₂ pump and a modifier pump with 150 ml pump heads, 400 bar, and an optional add-on pump with 30 ml pump heads, 400 bar, for separations with low modifier portions.

The integrated auto sampler can accommodate two standard or two deep well microtiter plates with 24 wells and a volume of 10 ml each or racks with up to 60 sample vials with a volume of 1.5 ml each.

The heatable column oven id suitable for up to 10 separation columns with internal diameter of 15 to 30 mm and a length of 250 mm.

Standard equipment in the main module is a DAD for measuring in the range of 190 – 720 nm. An ELSD can also be connected.

An integrated system controller and a 15.6” TFT touch screen are used to input all data for sample separations. No additional computer is needed, reducing the space required for the SFC-M5 system to a width of just 92 cm.

The post heater and the back pressure regulator are integrated within the collector module. The continuously operating gas-liquid separator is located at the front of the collector module; it removes residual CO₂ from the isolated compounds.

The SFC-M5 250 system can be fitted with a carousel fraction collector which can accommodate collection vessels with volumes ranging from 10 to 500 ml.

Alternatively, an XY-fraction collector for vials with volumes of 10 or 60 ml is available. A total of up to 195 fractions can be collected.
