The Multiwave 3000 is a modular platform for microwave sample preparation. The instrument was designed to achieve a maximum of productivity and an excellent quality in the decomposition for a wide range of samples, which may be digested under simultaneous conditions of up to 80 bar and 300°C. The advanced technology, which includes sensor based security systems, and its unique refrigerating arrangement, guarantees a complete and safe digestion of even the most difficult samples, in a fraction of time required by conventional digestion techniques. The ease of operation, together with the included library of proven methods, and the user guidance of the software warrants an effortless preparation of samples. ETL and GS certificates back the high security standard set by this equipment. Now there is no risk of matrix interferences, which may occur in the subsequent analytical methods like ICP or AAS. The technology employed in the Multiwave 3000 fulfills the requirements of standard methods like the EPA 3052 for microwave assisted acid digestion, of siliceous matrices and organic contents.
