The
Eldex Universal Fraction Collector is versatile; permitting either time-based collection,
in intervals of 1 to 999 seconds or minutes, or volume-based collection, from 1 to 999
drops per tube. The unit accommodates five different spiral collection racks for
collecting fractions of up to 75 mL.

|
Simple
to Operate |
|
|
|
The Universal
Fraction Collector is easy to use. The desired collection mode (in either seconds,
minutes, or drops) and collection increment are set on a four-digit thumbwheel
switch. The rest is automatic. Countdown of the set collection increment is
continuously displayed on the light emitting diode (LED). When the set collection
period or amount is reached, the LED reads zero and the test tube rack automatically
shifts to the next position. The counter then resets itself for the next
cycle. At the end of a run, the automatic shutoff switch turns off the drive
mechanism.

|
|
|
Reliable
Optical Positioning |
|
|
|
The collection
racks are positioned by an infrared light sensing system. As the rack revolves, code
bars interrupt the light beam, halting the drive motor and activating the digital counting
mechanism. When zero is reached, the motor is reactivated and the rack advances to
the next position. The infrared positioning system and the patented drive mechanism
provide reliable service.

Convenience
Features |
|
|
|
An output on the
rear panel provides a 30 millisecond, 5 volt pulse for recorder indication of rack
position change. Remote advance capabilities are provided on the rear panel for
complete system integration.

|
|
|
No
Loss of Sample
|
|
|
|
To prevent fluid
loss between adjacent tubes during shifting, a highly inert,
autoclavable, polypropylene
distribution plate is provided with each rack. If the effluent is incompatible with
polypropylene, the plate may be removed with negligible drop loss since the shift time is
short. Micro collections can be made on a circle of filter paper supported on any
rack.
The functional
design and durable construction of the Eldex Universal Fraction Collector make it nearly
maintenance-free. It has developed a well-deserved reputation as the workhorse of
laboratory fraction collectors.
