4.4 SPEED SETTING
Homogenization with the Bead Ruptor 24 is the result of the collision of the bead matrix and sample within
the Bead Ruptor tubes. The rate of collision and energy of impact determine the eectiveness of the disrup-
tion process and are controlled by the Bead Ruptor 24 “S” setting, the motion of the tube carriage, the bead
media, and the tube ll volume.
The “S” display in meters per second refers to the maximum vertical velocity achieved by a sample tube
during reciprocating processing motion.
4.5 TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The Bead Ruptor 24 is equipped with a unique temperature monitor which is located inside the processing
chamber. The temperature displayed is the processing chamber temperature, not the sample temperature
inside of the sample tubes.
