Presto
Accelerated SPE System
The most Efficient SPE system for Large-Volume Environmental Samples capable of high flow rate extractions
The most Efficient SPE system for Large-Volume Environmental Samples capable of high flow rate extractions
The Presto SPE system boasts a range of advanced features, including newly integrated continuous pumps for swift sample loading. Extracting 8 x 1L samples in 80 minutes following EPA Method 525 using Mini-disks. With individual flow control for each sample line, users have the flexibility to disable any line as needed.
Additionally, pressure monitoring and flow correction functionalities adapt to variations in sample matrices, while providing cartridge pressure warnings for enhanced safety. The system's empty line detection feature alerts users in case of premature sample depletion due to clogging, leakage, or tubing placement, and intelligently stops sample loading on channels that have processed all the sample liquid.

Presto system for large-volume environmental samples:
Presto
Whether your challenge is extracting trace pollutants (PFAS, SVOCs, PCBs, PAHs) from water, leachate or complex environmental matrices, the Presto delivers high throughput, reproducibility and reduced manual handling.
Product Details
Key operational features include individual flow, cartridge pressure warnings, empty-line detection to catch sample depletion or clogging, and dual waste outlets for aqueous and organic phases.
This fully automated SPE system is a top choice for demanding environmental workflows such as the EPA Method 1633 (PFAS), EPA Method 525 (SVOCs), EPA Method 533/537.1 and other high-flow analyte extractions. Applications extend to drinking water, surface water, wastewater, sea water, leachate and other complex matrices laden with particulates.

Mini-Disks
To capture the advantages of SPE disk in extraction speed and overcome its disadvantages in solvent consumption and automation, PromoChrom developed a suite of Mini-disks. The Mini-disks come in a format size similar to a 30-mm syringe filter and a cross-section area 5 times of a 6-mL SPE cartridge. The increased cross section area and optimized sorbent properties enables the Mini-disks to work with much higher flow rates than SPE cartridges, whereas a smaller size than conventional disks make the Mini-disks easily adaptable to cartridge type SPE instruments and consume less solvents.
