a10_x_sctn_1.pngEnhanced Heating Capabilities

The Discover platform features the most efficient microwave cavity available for extraction. Discover SP-X takes these heating capabilities to the next level with enhancements designed to enable the system to heat reactions as fast as systems using much higher wattage magnetrons. Discover SP-X is so efficient, it only requires 300 W of power, whereas comparable systems require 400 W or even 850 W to achieve similar results. Use less energy and still get the results you need, fast!

  • Rapid heating profiles for varying solvents
  • Self-tuning capability ensures your sample receives the optimum microwave energy during the entire reaction
  • Uniform field density ensures each sample is heated evenly
  • Most energy efficient microwave extraction system available




CEM’s patented PowerMAX™ simultaneous cooling technology allows more energy to be applied to a sample in a highly-dense field, resulting in faster extractions and more rapid cooling.

The patented focused single-mode cavity is designed to maximize the microwave energy input to the sample in a high-density field, giving the system an efficiency that needs only a fraction of the energy required by multimode systems. (300W vs 1400-1600W) 


The Safest Technology for Microwave Sample Preparation
The Discover SP-X was designed for safety. The unique circular cavity completely encapsulates the vessel in rugged, durable solid steel and is designed to focus energy efficiently on the sample, drastically reducing reaction times. Discover SP-X features full pressure and temperature control for each sample.
