SPCH-20 High Pressure Cell Disruptor

HS High Pressure Homogenizer
HS Ultra-High Pressure Cell Disruptor

The Pressure Cell benchtop device has a long history in high-pressure cell disruption and is highly regarded by researchers as a reliable and sophisticated laboratory instrument. The current system has been designed for simpler operation while integrating enhanced performance and safety interlock mechanisms. By retaining the best features of earlier models and leveraging the group's over 45 years of experience in high-pressure homogenization, this system offers advanced capabilities suitable for multidisciplinary applications.

The equipment adopts a revolutionary design, delivering superior disruption results, higher working pressure, and more stable performance. Its hydraulic intensifier principle ensures a more powerful and stable drive. The pressure-balanced load homogenization valve and microchannel interaction chamber enable higher working pressures and optimal disruption effects. The PLC microcomputer control module supports single-pass, semi-automatic cycle, or fully automatic cycle operation. With its unique safety monitoring system and safety-focused design, the system ensures secure and reliable operation.
