The control panel has separate bright digital displays indicating rotation speed, bath temperature, vacuum pressure, coolant temperature and vapor temperature.
Individually programmable ramps for all parameters for optimum distillation settings, a built-in vacuum/temperature controller and process timer allows for unattended distillation.
As with every Heidolph product, safety in design is paramount.
A patented evaporating flask support system allows for one-person operation, a self-filling water bath system eliminates the risk of running dry and a stop button automatically lowers bath, stops rotation, breaks vacuum and turns off the bath heaters in case of emergency.
Further patented receiver cassettes guard against glassware breakage while providing a self-standing flask support and receiving flasks feature reinforced bottom drain valves as standard.
