MARS 6MICROWAVE DIGESTION SYSTEM

The Clear Solution

The MARS™ 6 features integrated sensor technologies designed to make the system so simple to operate, it’s virtually effortless. Vessel recognition and vessel counting sensors automatically recognize the type and number of vessels that have been placed in the cavity. Optimum digestion conditions for sample type and number of vessels are selected while sensors monitor the reaction and adjust the power to ensure a complete digestion.

CEM’s One Touch takes the guess work out of sample preparation. Simply choose from the pre-installed methods and the MARS 6 does the rest. One Touch automatically determines all of the parameters, adjusts power output, and performs the digestion for all sample types.

Samples can be digested in the MARSXpress™ and EasyPrep™ families of vessels. The simple-to-use MARSXpress and MARSXpress™ Plus are the easiest-to-assemble vessels on the market and are ideal for high-throughput labs. The simplest to assemble high-temperature and high-pressure vessels available are the EasyPrep and EasyPrep Plus, which are well suited for large or difficult applications.

How Important is Wattage?

what makes MARS 6the best microwave digestion system?

METHODSSENSORS VESSELS

Wattage is only one of many factors when it comes to microwave acid digestion. Another major component is cavity size. As the cavity size increases, more wattage is needed to digest a sample. The better indicator of digestive power is watts per liter or the power density.

EXAMPLE

SAME DIGESTION POWER EVEN WITH 10 TIMES THE WATTAGE, THESE TWO SYSTEMS WOULD

HAVE THE SAME DIGESTION POWER DUE TO THEIR CAVITY SIZE.
