The CEM Focused Microwave Synthesis System is designed to perform chemical reactions under controlled conditions at laboratory scale. The system facilitates either homogeneus or heterogeneus solution phase chemistry, solid phase chemistry or chemistry conducted on solid supports. It accommodates vessels ranging in working volumes from 5 ml to 125 ml for reactions performed under atmospheric conditions, and 10 ml or 35 ml vessels with septa in addition to 80 ml vessels for reactions performed at elevated temperatures and pressures.
The robotic arm makes possible to program long queue experiments, each one with independent parameters.
