CONCEPT
Rotary evaporators are mainly used to evaporate light boiling components under normal pressure or vacuum. When used in pilot plant and small scale production they are also suitable for semi-continuous evaporation. They are characterized by providing a gentle thermal treatment for temperature-sensitive mediums and provide a higher evaporation rate as non-stirred glass distillation flasks. Compared to other evaporation processes the unique process feature of rotary evaporators is their ability to evaporate all volatile media providing at the end a dry product in the flask.
The process conditions are limited by the maximum temperature of the heating bath ( max. ~ 160°C) , the temperature of the cooling liquid (e.g. ~ 15°C tap water) for the condenser and the vacuum generator ( e.g.~10mbar).
The QVF® ROTADEST can be supplied for EX-rated areas up to zone 1 IIB.
