Configuration Overview
The easy-MedChem E-Series is an advanced E-Series system. It comes with two different reactors, a collection gantry and an organometallic kit. It is aimed at chemists looking to explore chemical reactions and then do initial scale-up. Using an organometallic kit and the V-3 pumps, it offers a large range of reagents that can be used. The E-Series can be expanded by using other reactors, such as cooled and high temperature, gas-liquid or the UV-150 photochemical reactor if the reaction requires. The easy-MedChem package includes:
- An adjustable packed bed column reactor – ambient to 150 °C
- A tube reactor assembly – ambient to 150 °C
- User interface with manual control software
- An Organometallic pumping kit
- 2 or 3 V-3 pumps
- Product collection gantry
Reactors
The easy-MedChem E-Series comes with a standard heated tube and column reactor. As with all E-Series, the system is compatible with all reactors like the R-Series, which are all interchangeable in seconds. Other reactors can be found on the reactors page and include:
- Heated or cooled
- Tube or column
- Regular or pre-mixing
- Polymer, stainless steel or Cu / Ag / Zn tube reactors for catalysed reactions.
- Gas / liquid reactor
- UV-150 Photochemical reactor
- Glass microchip reactors
- 2 reaction steps, temperature controlled separately
The V-3 Pump
Simple, accurate and reliable pumping of all reagents, including
- Volatile solvents
- Gases
- Great for organometallic/highly reactive reagents (e.g. BuLi, DIBAL)
- Strong acids including fuming Nitric acid
- Suspensions and light slurries
- Choose from 2 or 3 pump system, or start with 2 and add a third later.
Control
The easy-MedChem E-Series comes with a touchscreen interface, mounted at an ergonomically optimal height with full tilt adjustment. The easy-MedChem has an in-depth user interface and includes tools such as boiling point calculator, stoichiometry tool and special operation modes for the V3 pumps such as:
- Back pressure regulator mode
- Oscillation mode
Accessories
The E-Series base models can be expanded with a range of different accessories. These include:
- An additional pump
- Collection valve
- Organometallic kit (for air/moisture sensitive reagents)
- Cryogenic reaction kit
Each optional kit is user installable.
