Superior and Easy-to-use technology for an optimized sample preparation workflow

The ultraWAVE is based on the SRC (Single Reaction Chamber technology), invented by Milestone several years ago (Patents pending). SRC technology achieves extraordinary performance capabilities combining microwave heating with a high-pressure reactor which acts simultaneously as microwave cavity and vessel. The ultraWAVE chamber is sealed, pressurized, heated, cooled, vented, and opened via a dedicated touch-screen control terminal. Loading a rack of samples into the chamber is the only manual operation in an otherwise fully automated process of microwave-assisted sample preparation. The outer surfaces of the vessel remain at room temperature throughout the entire microwave heating cycle. As a result, the ultraWAVE is dramatically less labor intensive and easier to use compared to conventional microwave digestion systems.

Advantages:

  • High performance. The highest temperatures & pressure capabilities and the fastest cooling time.
  • Increased throughput. Double throughput of traditional microwave acid digestion instruments.
  • No batching required. Simultaneous digestion of any sample type combination.
  • Ease of use. Cleaning of digestion vials is not necessary. No vessel assembly/disassembly.
  • Expertise and Support. 35-years experience at your lab with the Milestone Connect.
  • Compliance. USP 232/233 Chapters, ICH Q3D Guidelines and FDA regulation 21 CFR part 11.

The ultraWAVE rack configurations include 4, 5, 8, 15, 19, 22 and 26 position and combinations thereof. Vials are available in TFM, quartz or disposable glass, and are fitted with loose TFM caps to ensure pressure equalization. Unlike conventional microwave digestion systems, no vessel assembly or disassembly is required. The use of disposable glass vials eliminates the cleaning step, further enhancing the lab’s workflow. The fast assembly of the vials, the automatic closing and opening cut the handling time, reducing the labour cost up to 50%.

COMPLETE DIGESTION AND DISSOLUTION

The more rigorous digestion conditions facilitate complete decomposition of the sample, ensuring that all target elements are in solution, even for the toughest and most chemically stable samples.

LOW BLANKS AND DILUTION

The use of low acid volumes or diluted acids in combination with high temperature reduces blank levels and dilution factors.

LOW RESIDUAL CARBON CONTENT

Complete digestion of the sample matrix also ensures the lowest residual carbon content thereby reducing polyatomic-based interferences during the analysis.

LARGER SAMPLE MASS

The combination of wide pressure range and accurate digestion control enables the safe digestion of larger sample masses - even for very reactive samples.

The ultraWAVE 3 user interface supports fast and easy operation. For a routine digestion, beginning the process only requires few seconds: open the method and press “start”. Single Reaction Chamber technology enables the use of a single method for the majority of sample types encountered in a typical lab. All the digestion parameters are automatically controlled by the system through a PID algorithm and are reported in the graph page as well as listed on the side bar present in all display pages.

The system incorporates a comprehensive list of methods, including official and standard methods, that guides the operator in the optimization of parameters based on specific matrices, so that the time for any method development and refinement that is called for can be minimized.
