Truly a life-saver! This saves us so much time and improves efficiency in the lab
Drying samples for analyzing metabolites via LCMS and GCMS
Very straight-forward and easy to use - just a press of a button and your good to go. It has many different setting to dry any solvent type you may be working with. You can dry samples for an hour or over night - whatever best fits your workflow. I've had this in my lab for over 2 years, and there hasn't been any issues.

Essential part of the lab
Sample formatting
Used for high value product preparation, the system provides excellent versatility from microtiter plates to EPA vials, it is now an essential part of the lab.

Good benchtop item for use in a synthesis lab. Good for taking off high boiling solvents e.g. DMF. Also used for HPLC fractions and 96 well plates. A very versatile piece of equipment.

Using the most advanced proven technology in evaporation science, the third generation of the EZ-2 Series has been designed specifically for solvent removal in life science research; be that concentration of samples or complete drying.
The innovative design of the EZ-2 Series presents many advantages for working in parallel within synthesis chemistry, analytical sample preparation and for general-purpose solvent removal needs in life science laboratories.
At the heart of the evaporator is a solvent resistant, oil-free vacuum pump, and the high efficiency, defrost-free, SpeedTrap™, which traps all solvents as liquids, even water. Solvents collect in the insulated, plastic coated glass vessel, enabling the user to see the progress of evaporation and determine when the trap should be emptied.
The EZ-2 Elite has a special auto-draining collection vessel fitted to the SpeedTrap, which uses the very powerful Scroll pump. The Elite can therefore evaporate the highest boiling solvents such as DMSO and perform the Genevac LyoSpeed fast lyophilisation method for HPLC fractions.
There is a low-cost option available on the Standard, Plus and Elite that allows the routine use of hydrochloric acid and aggressive solvents. By building key elements in Hastelloy®, glass or PTFE, full protection against acid chlorides is achieved. New to the HCl Resistance option is the ability to evaporate concentrated nitric acid. This option must be specified when ordering, as it cannot be retrofitted. All EZ-2 models are resistant to routine use of high concentrations of TFA as standard.
An additional option is available to allow safe operation for those wishing to use highly explosive solvents, such as pentane or diethyl ether - the inert gas purge system. This system can also be used to preserve oxygen or moisture sensitive samples under an inert gas blanket until the user returns to the evaporator.
The EZ-2 Series can also accommodate a wide selection of sample holders, including round-bottom flasks up to 500ml, tubes up to 160mm long (including Dionex ASE® and Radleys Carousel tubes), custom reaction blocks, and shallow or deep-well microtitre plates.
EZ-2 Series Models:
- The Standard (EZ-2) is suitable for water and volatile solvents
- The Envi (EZ-2 Envi) is recommended for concentration of volatile solvents
- The Plus (EZ-2 Plus) is recommended for solvents with boiling points upto 165°C
- The Elite (EZ-2 Elite) is recommended for solvents with boiling points upto 220°C
