1. How does the Labotemp Microwave Digestion System LMD-01 work?

The LMD-01 uses controlled microwave energy to rapidly heat samples and digestion acids inside sealed vessels under elevated temperature and pressure. Its continuous frequency conversion, 3D microwave field distribution, and 360° rotating turntable promote uniform heating, while infrared temperature sensing and real-time pressure monitoring help maintain controlled digestion conditions.

2. How many samples can the LMD-01 process at one time?

The LMD-01 has a 16-position rotor, allowing up to 16 digestion vessels to be used in a run. The vessels must be arranged symmetrically on the turntable, and the manual requires at least half of the available positions to be occupied during operation.

3. Can the LMD-01 digest superalloys and geological samples?

Yes. The LMD-01 can be used for digestion of geological materials and superalloys such as Inconel and titanium, provided the appropriate digestion method is selected. Sample quantity, digestion acids and processing conditions should be determined according to the sample characteristics and established laboratory procedures.

4. How does the LMD-01 ensure uniform and repeatable digestion?

The system combines continuous microwave frequency conversion, 3D microwave field distribution and 360° continuous vessel rotation to promote uniform heating across the digestion vessels. Non-contact infrared temperature sensing provides real-time monitoring, while PID-controlled temperature ramping and automatic temperature-pressure tracking support reproducible digestion conditions.

5. What safety features does the LMD-01 provide during high-temperature and high-pressure digestion?

The LMD-01 incorporates a self-locking explosion-proof door, multiple safety interlocks, automatic pressure relief, over-pressure protection, automatic shutdown and alarm functions. After a digestion cycle, the system automatically enters cooling mode, and the furnace door can only be opened when the temperature is below 50°C and pressure is below 500 kPa.

6. Does the LMD-01 remove acid after microwave digestion?

Yes. The LMD-01 can be used with its acid removal apparatus for post-digestion acid removal. The manual specifies a typical acid-removal temperature of 120–170°C and an approximate processing time of 30–60 minutes, depending on the sample and acid volume. This helps prepare the digested sample for subsequent analysis.

7. How much does the Labotemp LMD-01 Microwave Digestion System cost?

The price of the LMD-01 typically starts at approximately $11,000 and may vary depending on the selected configuration, vessel option, accessories and order requirements. Customers should contact Labotemp for a quotation based on their required configuration and application.
