EV 1 from Gerhardt: precision heating for demanding laboratory applications
The EV 1 heating plate from Gerhardt is an essential tool in laboratory environments requiring stable and reproducible thermal conditions. Designed for individual use, the EV 1 is specifically designed to heat flat-bottomed flasks, providing a reliable solution for manual analytical tasks such as Kjeldahl mineralisation, Soxhlet extractions, acid hydrolysis and heating various chemical solutions.
With a heating plate diameter of 85 mm and a maximum temperature of 425 °C, the EV 1 is suitable for a wide range of applications. Its compact size (150 x 225 x 110 mm) makes it easy to integrate into any workstation, even where space is limited. Weighing only 2 kg, it can also be easily transported from one workstation to another without compromising stability.
The heating power is continuously adjustable, allowing precise control of the thermal process, which is essential for protocols requiring a gradual temperature rise or constant heating over a prolonged period. This fine regulation reduces the risk of errors and optimises the reproducibility of results.
The versatility of the EV 1 is enhanced by a wide range of compatible accessories that extend its capabilities beyond simple liquid heating. For example, specific stands, racks and flasks can be used to convert this plate into a distillation or hydrolysis station, depending on the experimental requirements. This makes it a particularly popular tool in research or analysis laboratories in the food, environmental or pharmaceutical industries.
Manufactured to C. Gerhardt quality standards, the EV 1 is also a guarantee of durability. Its robust design makes it capable of withstanding intensive use while maintaining consistent performance. It follows in the tradition of the brand's classic appliances, recognised in laboratories around the world for their reliability.
The Gerhardt EV 1 heating plate is designed for professionals looking for a simple, robust and high-performance solution for their laboratory thermal applications. It combines compactness, safety, flexibility and reliability, making it an excellent investment for organisations seeking long-term equipment.
