Sonifiers for Advanced Laboratory Sample Processing

by | Jan 5, 2026 | Discrete Automation | 0 comments

In laboratory environments, there is often a need to homogenize, extract, degas, or disperse sampled fluids. A sonifier used ultrasonic frequency sound waves to perform these functions.

The Branson SFX Series Sonifiers provide advanced sample-processing capabilities to your laboratory. They have set laboratory industry standards for degassing liquids, accelerating chemical reactions, preparing liposomes, and performing genome research. Three models of sonifiers include:

The SFX 150 is a lower-power unit that’s perfect for processing a smaller volume of liquid and operating quietly. Geared toward samples ranging from 0.2 mL to 150 mL, and delivering up to 150 watts of power, the 150 is the only cell disruptor and homogenizer of its type.

The SFX 250 delivers up to 250 watts at 20kHz, processing samples from 0.2 mL to 500 mL, making it perfect for all but the highest-volume applications. Branson-exclusive True Temperature Control lets you specify a temperature range for the sample, and the sonifier automatically adjusts the ultrasonic pulse length to prevent overheating.

The most powerful sonifier, the SFX 550, handles high-volume applications with up to 550 watts of output power at 20kHz. With the power to process larger, viscous samples up to 1000 mL, the SFX 550 offers precise control over energy outputs and other parameters to accommodate experiments of all sizes.

This under-2-minute YouTube video, Branson SFX Series Overview, introduces the SFX series of ultrasonic cell disruptors and homogenizers, highlighting enhanced features for greater control and precision. The SFX Series offers increased power, user-friendly controls, and a unique temperature control system that ensures consistent results.
