Discover legacy systems - Microwave Synthesizers
The best-selling Discover® line of microwave synthesis systems is built upon CEM's
Focused™ Microwave Technology featuring a unique, 300-mL, single-mode cavity
designed to automatically focus microwave energy with maximum efficiency regardless of
the physical properties of the reaction.
With the largest single-mode cavity (300-mL) on the market, Discover not only accommodates
pressurized vessels of various sizes, but also offers the unmatched flexibility to perform
atmospheric reactions in standard glassware, up to a 125-mL round-bottom flask. Synergy™
software and onboard controls make it the easiest-to-use microwave synthesis system on the
market, even for those who have little or no experience with microwave technology in the
laboratory.
Discover LabMate
Discover LabMate expands the capabilities of your lab with the IntelliVent™ Pressure Control
System and CEM’s Synergy™ software.
LabMate features the IntelliVent™ Pressure Control System (patent-pending). IntelliVent is the
only pressure system on the market that ensures operator safety by offering an automated
overpressure venting capability. Reactions that exceed 300 psi (20 bar) are automatically and
safely vented in a controlled manner before the operator can access the vial.
CEM's Windows®-based Synergy software offers increased functionality and ease-of-use with a
built-in Report Wizard™ that simplifies documentation, a conventional to microwave method
converter, automatic data handling and parameter control capabilities, and more.

Discover BenchMate
Discover BenchMate is a robust system with many of the most popular features and is easily
upgradeable.
Ideal for academic labs, BenchMate offers affordable microwave synthesis with safe pressure
regulation using 10-mL pressurized vials and CEM’s proprietary “snap-on” cap design, which
automatically vents when the internal pressure of the vial reaches 300 psi (20 bar). Run 4-mL
and 10-mL pressurized vials.
