RV 3 V-C: compact and versatile rotary evaporator for laboratory applications
The RV 3 V-C rotary evaporator from IKA is an ideal entry-level solution for all laboratories looking for a reliable and efficient device. Specially designed for the chemical, pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors, it also meets the needs of research and development, production and quality assurance activities. Its careful design and vertical condenser with anti-corrosion coating ensure optimal use even in demanding environments. With a cooling surface area of 1500 cm², it offers high performance while taking up minimal space on the workbench.
The RV 3 V-C is equipped with a 4-litre heating bath that can reach a maximum temperature of 99 °C. The bath uses water heating controlled by a digital display, ensuring precise regulation and increased safety during evaporation processes. Manual lifting allows the glassware to be easily positioned, ensuring ergonomic handling for both right-handed and left-handed users. In addition, the adjustable immersion angle offers welcome flexibility to adapt to different protocols.
The integrated locking mechanism has a red indicator that signals when the vapour tube is unlocked, further enhancing safety during use. The rotation speed is continuously adjustable via a control knob, with a range from 20 to 300 rpm. This precise adjustment is complemented by a speed display that facilitates parameter control. The device operates at a reduced voltage of 24 V, minimising electrical hazards and improving overall safety.
This model is compatible with the complete range of IKA RV 10 glassware, allowing flexible use and adaptation to various types of experiments. Thanks to its compact design and advanced features, the RV 3 V-C is a wise choice for laboratories looking to equip themselves with a high-performance, economical rotary evaporator.
