Rotavapor R-250 EX
![]() | Sophisticated solutions in the Ex-protection area |
Types of protection used
- Flameproof enclosure based on EN 50018 (IEC 60079-1) of control system, heater, bath lift, level sensor and rotary motor
- Connecting boxes in the type of protection for increased safety based on EN 50019 (IEC 60079-7) of heating and rotary motor
- Intrinsically safe control panel based on EN 50020 (IEC 60079-11)
All equipment and protective systems are in compliance with EC directive 94/9 (ATEX 95). Manufacturing is in accordance with the quality assurance module based on this directive.
Simple operation
Operation of the Rotavapor® R-250 EX is as easy as for a non-Ex-proof rotary evaporator. The electrical heating and the precisely controllable rotary motor enables more precise and reproducible running than the steam-heated and hydraulic or pneumatic systems.
Vacuum Controller
The R-250 EX includes an intrinsically safe digital vacuum controller and an encapsulated magnetic valve. Easy setting of vacuum and hysteresis in the range between 10 mbar and atmospheric pressure allows an efficient and safe distillation process.
