Description

PIC-Lab SUPER Supercritical Fluid Extractor

The PIC-Lab SUPER SFE models are designed for high quality and efficient CO2 extraction of a wide range of compounds and phytochemicals. The instruments are relevant for drug discovery and natural products research, including hemp and cannabis.

Extraction with CO2 is a cost-effective and non-flammable process that leaves no toxic solvents in the extracts, which complies with regulations and meets public demand for natural ingredients.

These systems offer precise pumping and accurate pressure control using proprietary back pressure regulation, resulting in more efficient extraction.

For optimal productivity, the biomass loading in the extraction vessels can be increased 2-3 times when packed with our FlexPacker technology.

All systems are customised to the exact needs of the customer. This starts with the standard unit followed by various options.

You can choose the different options at your leisure and request a quotation. With the quotation, we discuss with you further improvements to improve your productivity, IPR, delivery times and payment terms. We offer the best flexibility and productivity.

 

Key features

• Fully automated system for single or multiple extraction sequences
• Low operating costs due to CO2 recycling.
• Simplified installation requirements
• cGMP compliant design allows easy removal or connection of extraction vessels.
• Full-spectrum and fractionated extraction in four fraction collectors. Option to use an additional pump to add co-solvent if required.
• Instrument functions are managed by a programmable logic controller (PLC), ensuring high reliability and reproducibility.
• Easy-to-use software on a desktop station allows the user to program sequences, visualise data and process.
• Wide range of in-line detectors: UV, ELSDS, CAD and MS

 

PIC-Lab SUPER SFE range

Our offer starts with the standard equipment:

It consists of a fully automated system with CO2 pump, heating/cooling, 2 x extraction vessels, 3 fractions, CO2 recovery, PC and cooler.

You choose optional accessories for this:

• Fraction collector for volatile compounds
• Fraction collector for solids
• Number of additional extraction vessels
• Co-solvent pump (e.g. addition of other solvents to the CO2)
• In-line detector for monitoring the extraction (e.g. UV-Vis
