Supercritical Fluid Extraction – Liquid Carbon Dioxide Pump

Supercritical Fluid Extraction Pump

The SFT Nex10 is a robust, high capacity carbon dioxide pump designed to boost the delivery pressure of the liquified gas up to 10,000 psi (68.9 MPa). It may be used to deliver liquid CO2 to new and existing SFE equipment including SFT’s model 110, 110XW, 120, and 120XW SF extractors. The pump may be placed under an SFT-110 or 120 SFE, saving valuable lab bench space.

It may be used to inject high pressure CO2 into reaction chambers for supercritical fluid reaction chemistry (SFR) and any other application requiring high pressure CO2. It is ideal for use with SFT’s HPR Series™ high pressure chemical reactors.

The Nex10’s high performance, pneumatically driven piston pump rapidly compresses liquid CO2 from tank pressure (750-900 psi) up to the pressures required for SFE, SFR, and other high-pressure applications. The pump operates in a constant pressure mode. The flow rate automatically adjusts to maintain the desired pressure.

The Nex10 has a stainless-steel fluid path. The CO2 is cooled by an internal thermoelectric cooling module, ensuring efficient pumping. Cooling jackets and baths are not required.
