Heidolph Rotary Evaporator Hei-VAP Expert motor lift
Precise setting of rotation speed and heating bath temperature on the digital touch display or - for quick access during an active process - directly via the knobs on the operating panel.
- Central operating panel with 5'' touch display
- Clear display of all values (Basic and Advanced modes)
- With timer, limitation of max. temperature, multilingual menu and text display for error messages
- Separate knobs for rotation and heating with locking function to prevent accidental readjusting
- LED ring lights and pictogram to display the activity even from a distance
- Integrated solvent library to facilitate adjustment of the required vacuum on an external vacuum controller
- USB and Micro SD interfaces
- Optional display of vapor temperature
- Subsequent upgrade to Hei-VAP Expert Control possible, including vacuum and chiller control
Leading Safety Standards
- All Hei-VAP rotary evaporators have a safety heating bath with overheating and dry running protection, ergonomic handles, double wall and an integrated spout
- Digital displays allow continuous monitoring of the current values and, thanks to protection class IP 42, protect the electronics reliably against dripping water and dust
- The locking function of the knobs prevents unintentional adjustment of the values
- The standby button stops all functions and lifts the evaporating flask from the heating bath
- Additional safety from a single source: From the transparent plastic coating of the glassware to guard shield and guard hood (implosion protection) to IQ-OQ documentation and certification
- Universal heating bath for all flask sizes up to 5 l (no retooling required). The sturdy metal connection to the device's base allows variable distances for the heating bath up to 200 mm without tilting
- Separate knobs with intuitive LED ring light system not only allow visual process control, but also direct intervention in the evaporation process at any time
- Residual heat indicator: When the function is deactivated and in standby mode, flashing and the display of the residual heat warn of the risk of burns (> 50 °C)
- In order to prevent short circuits and corrosion systematically, the cable connections of the operating panel and the heating bath comply with the high protection class IP 67
Superior Ease of Use
- Models are available with motor lift
- The versatile operating concept meets all requirements with digital display or touch display
- The detachable panel with optional extension cable and holding device allow quick and easy operation even outside closed fume hoods
- FDA-compliant materials for all active and passive media-contacting components permit a broader range of application and research at the highest level
- The optionally available automatic module Distimatic permits fully automatic distillation in unattended continuous operation
- The patented flask clamp Easy-Clip facilitates attaching and changing of the evaporating flask. The mechanism gently separates ground glass joints to prevent glass breakage
- Intuitive operation, as all settings are configured centrally on the operating panel. In combination with the Control-Box, the panel can even be used as the central control unit to regulate the vacuum and the Hei-CHILL recirculation chiller as well
- Easy ventilation thanks to the ground-free condenser design: The ventilation cap with PTFE inlay and threaded connection avoids stuck glass - without grease. Optionally, a venting valve with refill function is also available
- Convenient release for individual adjustment of the angle of inclination from 20° to 80° and height stop to limit the immersion depth up to 160 mm
Reduced Cost of Ownership
- No unnecessary additional costs: The patented clamping sleeve effectively prevents the vapor tube from getting stuck in the drive
- Ground-free condenser design with grease-free threaded connections
- The unique tightness of the vacuum system leads to shorter process times, reduced energy costs and purest results
- Even greater efficiency with up to 40% higher evaporation rates: The intelligent design of the XL condenser provides 57% more cooling surface at almost the same height as previous standard vertical condensers
- Media-contacting plastic parts such as the screw connection for mounting the condenser and the clamping sleeve on the vapor tube are made of highly resistant PPS to ensure a long lifespan
- With the patented Easy-Clip's integrated screw thread, stuck evaporating flasks can be released safely and easily
- The highly resistant and particularly durable PTFE vacuum seals achieve maximum tightness and reduce expenses for spare parts in the long run
- The universal heating bath is suitable for all flasks up to 5 l, without additional costs for retrofitting
- Quality that pays off. Corrosion-free die-cast housings with condensation-repellent varnish and maintenance-free motors guarantee unrestricted continuous operation and a long lifespan with significantly lower maintenance costs
- Many of the current series' spare and wear parts are forward and backward compatible with earlier models
