Microwave extraction system
The MARS 6 Extraction™ is a microwave extraction system that combines intelligent design with exceptional ease of use for extractions. With an industry-leading 2000 watts of power, it’s ideal for preparing samples for US EPA 3546, polymers, and more. The MARS 6 Extraction can process up to 40 samples in a single batch, using up to 85% less solvent than traditional methods. It offers the highest throughput and the lowest cost per test of any extraction method available today.
Features of the microwave extraction system:
- Extract 40 samples in only 25 minutes
- 95% solvent reduction compared to Soxhlet
- Advanced vessel sensors count vessels and apply power appropriately
- Flexible, open architecture design allows the introduction of a variety of different vessel types
How it works
Save time and money with microwave extraction.
The MARS 6 can prepare up to 40 samples in a single batch in 25 minutes, providing the highest throughput and the lowest cost per test available. The system’s all-vessel temperature control and patented PowerMAX technologies deliver unmatched precision in measurement and control, while the proprietary One Touch Technology ensures exceptional ease of use.
One-Touch Technology
Pre-installed methods, one touch away.
By selecting the One-Touch icon on the MARS 6 touch screen, you’ll be able to choose the sample type from the pre-installed methods. From there, it will automatically detect the type of vessel you are using, count the vessels, adjust the power accordingly, and perform the extraction for you. It couldn’t be easier!
Vessels
Vessels designed with you in mind.
The MARSXpress Vessel
The 75 mL MARSXpress vessel is the perfect choice for USEPA 3546. It allows for sample sizes of up to 20 grams to be extracted. The simple 3-part design make them remarkably easy to use. Up to 40 samples can be processed simultaneously, providing laboratories the lowest cost per test of any system on the market.
The MARSXpress Plus Vessel with Optional Glass Liner
The MARSXpress vessel has a large volume of 110 mL allowing you to process samples of up to 30 grams. It can also be used with a convenient, disposable, glass liner to eliminate washing steps between runs. In addition, the glass liner protects the Teflon® vessel from highly concentrated contaminants.
