Initiator_product page 

Synthesize compounds FASTER and EASIER using microwave heating.


NEW! Initiator 2.5
High powered, focused microwave heating—yields higher recoveries. A more powerful 400 watt magnetron delivers the most precise heating control of any microwave synthesis instrument on the market. A new USB port enables chemists to share or store methods and results via memory stick or remote network connection. Built-in computer and touch-screen interface eliminate the additional cost and hassle of an external computer. New software includes a wizard that guides users and automatically converts conventional parameters to microwave conditions. Initiator 2.5 is the easiest, safest and most powerful microwave synthesizer available. 
MORE INFORMATION


Compact footprint
