SPEED
What would a reduction in digestion time from hours to minutes do for your lab workflow and productivity?
Digestions using ColdBlock Technology have an average cycle time of 10-40 minutes, significantly faster than microwave (75-90 minutes) or hot plate (90-240 minutes)
SIMPLICITY
Setting up the ColdBlock system is easy – can be completed by a single person in less than 30 minutes.
No moving parts, minimal maintenance (<5min/week), simple software controls with the ability save and reuse multiple digestion methods. Easy integration into any wet-chem laboratory.
SAFETY
ColdBlock eliminates the need for hazardous perchloric acid.
Safe open-air operation within the vent hood (no pressurization), with a cooling zone that allows for safer handling of test tubes.
SAVINGS
Shorter digestion = faster throughput and shorter turn-around time, leading to significant increase in lab productivity.
Customers report a 10-30% reduction in all-in costs compared to hot block and microwave sample digestion methods.
