With the new RV 10 range of rotary evaporators, IKA® has confirmed that there is always room for improvement, even when it comes to one of the oldest of chemical processes: distillation.

The RV 10 Rotary Evaporators set new standards for safety, efficiency and ease of use. Great attention is paid to the issue of safety, from the Basic version upwards. Each model features a lifting mechanism which raises the evaporator piston out of the heating bath in the event of power disruption.

The comprehensive safety features also include: interval operation, smooth start, end position recognition for the evaporator piston, and a timer function. The digital version also provides digital temperature display and RS 232 interface. For fully automated distillation, IKA® offers the RV10 control with integrated vacuum controller, USB interface and graphical display.

With the RV 10 Rotary Evaporators, IKA® sets new standards in the market place in terms of safety, efficiency and usability. The RV10 portfolio is comprised of three different systems:

• RV 10 basic for straightforward laboratory distillation tasks

• RV 10 digital with advanced functions for increased accuracy and ease of use

• The high-end model, RV 10 control, which features an integrated vacuum controller for improved precision

There are hundreds of reasons to choose an IKA® RV 10 rotary evaporator as your new lab assistant.

Below you will find the six most appealing ones.

Good looking

The RV10 won iF product design award and made it on the short list of the "Deutsche Designpreis". Both renowned awards acknowledge outstanding achievement in design and functionality.

Practical

The RV 10 line offers new standards in terms of safety, efficiency and practical aspects. Highly solvent-resistant PTFE seals also ensure that long-term operation of the system is exceptionally safe, even when used with aggressive organic solvents.

Intelligent

The RV 10 line not only exhibits brilliant technology, but also sets new standards for intelligent performance. The perfectly coordinated data transfer between heating bath and drive unit, as well as optional remote operation from a PC, ensure reproducible results.

Reliable

IKA is so confident the RV10 will provide reliable performance, a 5 year warranty is provided.

Efficient

The heating bath of the RV 10 sets new standards for safety, efficiency and ease of use. The heating bath can be removed from the RV10 to function as a "stand alone" heating bath, extending the range of possible applications.

Safe

"Safety comes first" is the slogan for the RV 10 line. From the ergonomic carrying handles to prevent spillage to the automatic lift-out mechanism, safety in your lab is our main concern.
