The easiest Way to ensure Safety and Quality for your HPLC Lab

Jun 06 2023

Solvent vapours are not only the cause of many occupational illnesses and breakdowns: especially in instrumental analysis, malfunctions can be costly if they result in interruptions and maintenance work. Safety Caps protect against hazards from solvent vapours and ensure clean, reliable analysis. It has never been so easy to protect your health and save costs at the same time.

The video tutorial shows how you can quickly and easily install Safety Caps on any HPLC system.

The SCAT safety cap system blocks solvent vapours and keeps your eluents clean. It protects your health, the environment and the quality of your analysis. The mixing ratio of your solvents stays stable, as there is no evaporation. The orginal solution for the safe handling of HPLC solvents – optimised and continually refined, over the last 25 years.

Best possible Protection against Vapours

The hermetically sealing SCAT Safety Caps ensure that no solvent vapours escape.

Safe Pressure Equalisation

When extracting the eluent, a negative pressure is created in the container. The SCAT air valve ensures safe pressure equalisation during HPLC operation.

Clean Mobile Phase

The valve membrane of the air valve retains dust and dirt particles from the ambient air. Analysis results remain unaltered and reproducible. For clean separation without interfering or overlapping peaks in the chromatogram.

Analysis without Air Bubbles

Capillaries and tubes remain tightly screwed in and cannot slip out of the solvent. Interruptions due to air pockets are avoided.

Easy Container Change

The freely rotating cap can be easily removed even with the tubes fitted - without twisting or “tube tangle”. Your storage containers are changed quickly and conveniently.

Safety for every HPLC Type

Whether HPLC, UHPLC or preparative HPLC: Safety Caps are optimised for all typical solvents and flow rates in chromatography. Each solution is extensively tested in practice before it finds its way into our range.

Best Chemical Resistance

Anyone who works with organic solvents knows how important it is to use chemically resistant materials. Therefore, we only use officially tested high-performance plastics with clearly defined and verifiable properties for the production.

Safely through the Audit

HPLC instruments with SCAT equipment pass any quality or safety test according to the latest safety standards. That is why the SCAT system is part of the basic equipment for laboratory safety at leading pharmaceutical and chemical companies worldwide.

Compatible across Generations

The valve and all other components are compatible with previous and future Safety Caps. No matter how your lab changes: Accessories and spare parts always fit. This is our promise for the future.

Trouble-Free Work

Safety Caps eliminate many interfering factors directly at the storage container. For smooth and reliable operation of your analytics.

More than 25 Years of Practice

For continuous improvement, we work closely with users from all over the world. Ideas from daily laboratory practice flow directly into every new generation of SCAT Safety Caps. This way, you always remain at the cutting-edge of technology.
