Biotage® Extrahera™ HV-5000
The Biotage® Extrahera™ HV-5000 is a state-of-the-art automated sample preparation workstation specifically designed for high-volume biological, pharmaceutical, and environmental sample processing. Engineered for laboratories performing solid phase extraction (SPE) and supported liquid extraction (SLE) workflows, this system accommodates classical 3, 6, 10, and 15 mL column formats for maximum flexibility. With an advanced 4-channel pipette head capable of handling 250–5000 µL per channel, the HV-5000 ensures precise and reproducible liquid handling for demanding high-volume extractions. A compact footprint and integrated touchscreen interface make it easy to use in a variety of lab environments—including benchtops, fume hoods, or mobile labs.
- High-Volume Pipetting — A 4-channel pipette head aspirates and dispenses 250–5000 µL per channel for large-volume sample preparation.
- Supports Multiple Column Formats — Compatible with 3, 6, 10, and 15 mL SPE and SLE columns for full workflow flexibility.
- Compact & Portable — Small footprint with integrated touchscreen—ideal for benchtop, fume hood, or mobile lab setups.
- SMART Pipette Loading — Prevents air aspiration and sample overflow for consistent and safe sample handling.
- Positive Pressure Processing — Ensures uniform flow across all samples for reproducible SPE and SLE extractions.
- Three-Waste Stream Management — Independently control aqueous, organic, and chlorinated waste lines to reduce disposal costs and environmental impact.
- User-Friendly Software — Intuitive interface requires minimal training; perfect for both novice and expert users.
- GLP-Compliant Operation — Designed for regulated laboratory environments needing reliable, traceable sample preparation.
