How TO Use Rotary Evaporator Correctly?

How to use rotary evaporator correctly is not only effect rotary evaporator service life, also related your research efficient & accurate. Firstly we need to know the application of laboratory rotary evaporator.

Small scale rotary evaporator is designed for distilling in schools, laboratories or factories. Together with the accessories recommended by manufacturer, the device is suitable for:

- Quick and gentle distillation of liquids.

- Evaporation of solutions and suspensions.

- Crystallisation, synthesis or cleaning of fine chemicals.

- Drying of powder and granulate material.

- Recycling of solvents (economical method during cannabis oil distillation process).

How to use rotary evaporator correctly?

1. Set up the device in a spacious area on an even, stable, clean, non-slip, dry and fireproof surface.

2. Ensure that there is sufficient space above the device as the glass assembly may exceed the height of the device.

3. Prior to each use, always check the device, accessories and especially the glass parts for damage. Do not use damaged components.

4. Ensure that the glass assembly of rotary evaporator is tension-free! Danger of cracking as a result of:

- stress due to incorrect assembly,
- external mechanical hazards,
- local temperature peaks.

5. Ensure that the stand does not start to move due to vibrations respectively unbelance.

6. Beware of hazards due to:

- flammable materials,
- combustible media with a low boiling temperature,
- glass breakage.

7. CAUTION! Only process and heat up media that has a flash point higher than the adjusted safe temperature limit of the heating bath that has been set.

8. The safe temperature limit of the heating bath must always be set to at least 25 °C lower than the fire point of the media used.

9. Do not operate the rotary evaporator appliance in explosive atmospheres, with hazardous substances or under water.
