Advanced Reaction Sensors

The START D is equipped with the most advanced reaction sensors, including contact-less temperature and pressure control in all vessels, and direct temperature and pressure control in a single reference vessel.

Direct temperature control

The ATC Automatic Temperature Control system allows for direct continuous monitoring and control of a reference vessel up to 300°C. The temperature sensor is housed in a thermowell and protected from chemical attack by a multiple layer of PTFE and inert material, ensuring trouble-free operation.


Contact-less temperature control in all vessels

The ETHOS 1 features a focused, highsensitivity infrared sensor for contact-less temperature monitor and control of all vessels, with individual temperature profiles for each vessel.

Direct pressure control

The APC Automatic Pressure Control system allows for direct monitoring and control of a reference vessel up to 100 bar. Pressure monitoring and control are ideal for highly reactive organic samples or ‘unknowns’, and for method development, to maintain pressure limits within the vessel’s specifications.

Contact-less pressure control in all vessels

Unlike contact-less temperature control devices, which focus on one vessel at the time, this sensor monitors and effectively controls all vessels simultaneously, preventing any leakage or vapor diffusion. In combination with our proprietary pressure vessel technology and the EasyCONTROL software, this sensor ensures complete and safe digestions without any loss of volatile compounds.
