New Autoclave Website Launched


Synthesis and Evaporation In Pear Shaped Flasks


Asynt has developed a version of DrySyn heating block purpose designed to allow scientists to perform safe, productive heating and stirring experiments with pear shaped flasks commonly used with rotary evaporators.


Pear shaped flasks are popular with organic chemists as concentrated samples can be removed much more easily than from a round bottom flask. Pear-shaped flasks are used for evaporating solutions to dryness post synthesis using a rotary evaporator, the ‘rounded V’ shape of the flasks enables solid materials to be scraped out more efficiently than from a round bottomed flask.


Priorclave’s new web site went live in March 2014 and reflects the company’s up-front policy of providing would-be autoclave purchasers with facts and figures that will steer them easily to identify the best possible steam steriliser for their application. The selection process begins right on the Home Page where answering a few key questions on the Product Finder, guides users to the most appropriate Priorclave available and within a given budget.


Priorclave is firmly established as a global autoclave supplier to a diverse range of industrial sectors that include food and dairy, pharmaceutical, microbiology and health care. The company’s success is built around its in-house assets of strong design credentials and modern manufacturing facility coupled with rigorous test and calibration centre. These ensure that quality, robust autoclaves leave the UK factory to satisfy the steam sterilising requirements of every specific application worldwide.


With over fifty standard autoclaves, models including front and top loading sterilisers with cylindrical or rectangular stainless steel chambers and with capacities from 40 to 700 litres, Priorclave has made the task of searching for you ideal Priorclave much easier. In addition to the Product Finder on the Home Page, every product range incorporates a quick-selection guide to help easily locate the most appropriate autoclave for the laboratory application.


Evolved over more than 25 years this comprehensive selection of Priorclaves includes a variety of styles including benchtop, floor-standing designs for mid and high capacity applications, powerdoors versions as well as double-door autoclaves and choice of steam generation. For many there will be an autoclave to meet their requirements, however should a unique build be required this can be undertaken since Priorclave has total control over design and production at its British manufacturing centre.


Visitors to the new Priorclave web site will find it much easier to navigate, find product details plus a host of helpful information on topics such as what to consider when selecting an autoclave, information on the company’s extensive pre and after sales support.

Martyn Fordham, Managing Director of Asynt commented: “By designing a version of the DrySyn to accept these flasks - chemists can now eliminate the need for sample transfers between reaction flask and an evaporator (pear-shaped) flask, allowing the same flask to be used for both Synthesis and Evaporation.”


Made of chemically resistant, anodised aluminium, the DrySyn range of heating blocks for pear-shaped flasks (100mL, 250ml, 500mL, 1000mL) offer excellent heating performance to over 300ºC and can heat a reaction flask 25% faster than an oil bath. Providing excellent heating and stirring performance but without the inherent risks and mess of an oil bath, DrySyn heating blocks help laboratory scientists create a safer, cleaner and more efficient working environment. DrySyn heating blocks also offer a flexible, safe alternative to using heating mantles.
