Stir that reaction for better results
Accessory evenly distributes high torque to all positions of the reaction station, resulting in productive overhead stirring even when faced with highly viscous liquids
Radleys Discovery Technologies has introduced the Tornado IS6 - a new accessory for the Carousel 6 reaction system that facilitates powerful, controlled stirring of up to six reactions (50-250ml) in parallel Built to seamlessly integrate with a wide range of overhead stirrers, the Tornado evenly distributes high torque to all positions of the Carousel 6

Radleys has on its website a video presentation demonstrating the simple assembly, set-up and operation of the Tornado IS-6, which enables controlled stirring of up to six reactions in parallel
The result is productive overhead stirring even when faced with highly viscous liquids.
At its most powerful the Tornado can stir reaction mixtures of up to 10,000cps at 500rpm.
The system is also ideal for dispersing solids in lower viscosity liquids at speeds of up to 1000rpm, says the company.
Built to minimise set-up time, the Tornado features an easy-to-use pinch grip for fast, reliable overhead stirrer shaft insertion.
Incorporating the proprietary RDT sealed stirrer drive mechanism, the Tornado can maintain stirring of up to 6 reactions under vacuum or with inert atmospheres.
The Carousel 6 has been designed for use by individual chemists in their own fumehood.
The affordability of the Carousel 6 brings all the productivity benefits of parallel synthesis to the chemist at a fraction of the cost of any other comparable system, says the company.
The Tornado is available separately or as part of a system integrated with the Carousel 6 reaction station.
