Milestone's ETHOS One microwave digestion system: Performance and Safety for Modern Laboratories
The ETHOS One microwave digestion system from Milestone represents excellence in microwave sample preparation . Designed specifically for closed-vessel acid digestion, the ETHOS One offers seamless integration between microwave hardware, user interface, reaction sensors and pressure vessels. This system is ideal for laboratories seeking a complete, high-end solution for microwave sample preparation, including acid digestion, solvent extraction, high-temperature fusion and vacuum evaporation.
Made of 316 stainless steel, the ETHOS One is designed for exceptional durability and reliability. Unlike other systems that use moulded plastics, Milestone uses a stainless steel construction, making it the most robust and safest microwave system available on the market. The system is equipped with two 1800-watt magnetrons, enabling fast and efficient heating of high-performance rotors and complete digestion of even the most difficult matrices.
The ETHOS One is also equipped with patented vessel venting and resealing technology, which ensures optimal safety in the event of sudden overpressure. This technology allows only excess pressure to be released from the vessels, ensuring that the digestion process can be completed safely. In addition, the system features a stainless steel door with an innovative opening and resealing mechanism, which provides additional protection in the event of overpressure.
The compact control terminal of the ETHOS One is equipped with an easy-to-read colour touchscreen, providing intuitive and user-friendly control of the microwave digestion process. The terminal is supplied with several USB and RS-232 ports for direct printing of digestion methods and results, and for interfacing with external devices. Milestone's multilingual, user-friendly EasyCONTROL software allows simple and precise control of the microwave sample preparation process with real-time monitoring and control of multiple parameters.
The ETHOS One is also equipped with reaction sensors, including direct temperature and pressure control in a reference vessel and non-contact temperature and pressure control in all vessels. These sensors enable precise control and real-time monitoring of digestion conditions, ensuring consistent quality and optimal safety.
Milestone's ETHOS One microwave digestion system is a complete, high-end solution for microwave sample preparation. With its stainless steel construction, high-performance rotors, reaction sensors and user-friendly control terminal, the ETHOS One offers unrivalled productivity, safety and ease of use.
