Sale – CEM Discover 2.0 Microwave Synthesis System with Autosampler – Fully TESTED
What it is
The CEM Corporation Discover 2.0 is a single-mode focused microwave reactor. It uses microwave energy to heat chemical reactions rapidly and precisely, with temperature and pressure monitoring. CEM describes it as suitable for applications ranging from reaction optimization and pharmaceutical synthesis to scale-up work.
Key capabilities include:
- 300 mL single-mode microwave cavity
- 900 W magnetron
- Integrated magnetic stirring
- Infrared temperature measurement
- Pressure monitoring/control
- Reactions in open vessels or sealed pressure vessels
- Common pressure-vessel sizes of 10, 35 and 100 mL
- Sealed-vessel operation up to approximately 30 bar, depending on vessel/configuration
- Touchscreen control and reaction-method programming
- Rapid compressed-air cooling
- Optional camera for observing reactions
What the Autosampler adds
The Autosampler 12 automates sequential reactions, allowing multiple prepared reaction vessels to be processed without manually loading each one. CEM also offers a 48-position version. Both can accommodate 10 mL and 35 mL sealed vessels.
This makes the system particularly useful for:
- Reaction-condition optimization
- Small compound-library synthesis
- Overnight reaction sequences
- High-throughput screening
- Reproducible temperature/time experiments
About the particular used listing
I found a current listing matching your description: CEM Discover 2.0 with autosampler, fully tested. The listing reports an asking price of €11,000, negotiable, with the machine located in the United States, approximately 50 kg, and described as being in good/excellent cosmetic condition.
Another listing for the same equipment identifies the package as including:
- CEM Discover 2.0, P/N 912600
- Autosampler 12 upgrade, P/N 925164-1
- Open-vessel attenuator, P/N 544300
- Capability for 10 mL and 35 mL pressure vessels
Important: “Fully tested” does not necessarily mean recently factory-certified or covered by a warranty. For a used system at €11k, I’d specifically verify the magnetron output, temperature/pressure sensors, autosampler operation, vessel/ActiVent components, touchscreen/software, and the included accessories before purchasing.
