Frequently Asked Questions
CentriVap Concentrators use centrifugal force to hold the sample at the bottom of the tubes, preventing bubbling and splashing. Simultaneously, a vacuum is applied to lower the solvent's boiling point, and heat is often applied to accelerate evaporation. The solvent vapor is then captured in a cold trap or glass trap to protect the vacuum pump and aid in analysis or disposal.
A standard centrifuge is used to separate components based on density by spinning at high speeds. A CentriVap is designed for concentration and drying. It spins at a lower, controlled speed to prevent bumping while applying vacuum and heat, leaving behind a concentrate, film, or dry pellet.
Many applications, such as work with RNA and proteins, require sample temperature to remain below a specific temperature threshold. Since the spinning rotor found in Labconco’s CentriVap Pro Vacuum Concentrator can heat samples to 30-35°C even without added heat from the system, we recommend the Refrigerated CentriVap Pro. This instrument can cool the sample chamber to -10°C, ensuring your samples remain stable throughout your workflow.
