RotaCool by Huber - Efficient Cooling for Your Rotary Evaporator
The RotaCool by Huber is a chiller engineered to deliver reliable and efficient cooling for rotary evaporators in laboratory settings. Its compact design maximizes space while providing robust cooling capabilities, making it the ideal choice for researchers and professionals who require precision temperature control.
At the core of the RotaCool is its air-cooled refrigeration device, utilizing natural refrigerant R-290, which is both CFC- and H-CFC-free. This environmentally friendly refrigerant ensures minimal impact on global warming, with a remarkably low Global Warming Potential (GWP) of just 0.02. The use of R-290 contributes to a sustainable laboratory environment without compromising performance.
The RotaCool features a housing, evaporator (cooler), and tank made of high-quality stainless steel, providing exceptional durability and resistance to corrosion. This robust construction ensures that the unit withstands the rigors of laboratory use while maintaining optimal performance.
One of the standout features of the RotaCool is its microprocessor controller. This modern interface offers users an intuitive experience with a large digital temperature display, allowing for precise temperature adjustment and real-time monitoring. Users can effortlessly set and adjust the operating temperature within a range of -10°C to 40°C, with an impressive temperature stability of just 1K at -10°C. The internal temperature sensor (Pt100) guarantees accurate readings, ensuring reliable operation.
The RotaCool is designed for easy usability, featuring a streamlined control panel limited to essential functions. The intuitive interface comprises just three keys, enabling straightforward operation without the complexity of unnecessary features. LED indicators for pump and cooling status provide users with clear visual feedback, enhancing usability in busy laboratory environments.
In addition to its impressive performance characteristics, the RotaCool’s space-saving L-design accommodates the requirements of conventional rotary evaporators. For added versatility, an optional extension plate is available, extending the evaporator base width to 582 mm. This adaptability ensures compatibility with various laboratory setups and enhances the unit's functionality.
Technical specifications further highlight the RotaCool's efficiency. The chiller's cooling power is rated at 0.42 kW at 15°C, 0.35 kW at 0°C, and 0.22 kW at -10°C. The pressure pump can deliver a maximum flow rate of 14 l/min, with a delivery pressure of 0.25 bar, while the suction pump offers a maximum delivery rate of 10.5 l/min at a suction pressure of 0.17 bar. With a minimum filling capacity of 1.5 liters and an expansion volume of 1 liter, the RotaCool is equipped to handle a variety of cooling applications.
Additional specifications include a noise level of 59 dB(A), overall dimensions of 470x580x402 mm, and a net weight of 32 kg. The unit requires a power supply of 208-240V 1~/2~ 50/60Hz, with a maximum current of 3.5 A and a minimum fuse rating of 10 A. The RotaCool also features a degree of protection rated at IP20, ensuring safe operation within the specified ambient temperature range of 5°C to 40°C.
The RotaCool by Huber combines innovative design, eco-friendly refrigerants, and user-friendly technology to provide an exceptional cooling solution for rotary evaporators. Whether in research laboratories or industrial applications, the RotaCool sets a new standard for efficiency, precision, and reliability.
