Hielscher - Ultrasound Technology

The sonoreactor UTR200 (200 watts, 24kHz) works as an ultrasonic bath but at a 50 times higher intensity. Its characteristics in terms of quality are the same as those of the other Hielscher ultrasonic processors, such as the UP200S . In addition, it is dry-running protected. It is suited for the direct or indirect sonication of liquids e.g. for cell disruption, homogenizing or emulsifying . The beaker-shaped sonotrode is machined from one piece in order to prevent leakages. The upper part of the sonotrode is oscillation-free and can be used for mounting the respective accessories for diverse application cases. A corresponding reactor cover takes the Eppendorf tubes or test tubes for indirect sonication. For a more intense sonication of vials and test tubes for processes, such as dispersing, homogenizing and emulsifying, please take a look at our VialTweeter.

By means of the reactor cover the chamber is hermetically sealed. If the cover has an additional inlet and outlet the sonoreactor can be used as a flow system. A sieving extension with a bajonet lock takes a pile of sieves for fine grain sizes (diameter 75mm, finest mesh size 5 micron). The ultrasound, which is transmitted to the sieves, accelerates the wet sieving process.

Besides the application combination with various accessories, the UTR200 is a powerful alternative to common ultrasonic baths. Below, you will find the technical specifications of the UTR200.
