Description
RV 3 V is a rotary evaporator conceived as a versatile entry-level model for chemistry, pharmacy and the bio industry, spanning research and development, production, quality assurance, laboratories and plant engineering. Its high-efficiency condenser makes effective use of a 1500 cm² cooling surface thanks to specially developed glass guides. The 4-litre water heating bath reaches up to 99 °C and features a digital temperature display plus carrying handles. Rotation speed is continuously adjustable from 20 to 300 rpm via rotary knob and scale. A manual lift enables precise glassware positioning, with adjustable immersion angle and single-handed operation for right- and left-handed users. Mechanical lift end-stop, locking mechanism with red unlocked indicator for the vapour tube, and flask fixing with integrated push-off device support safe, convenient handling. User safety is reinforced by 24 V low voltage in the device. The compact unit from manufacturer IKA is compatible with the full IKA RV 10 glassware range.
This article is part of Rotary evaporators, in Pumps, vacuum & evaporation.

Questions about RV 3 V, Rotary evaporator
What is this article?
RV 3 V, Rotary evaporator is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes IKA for laboratory use. It sits in Rotary evaporators, inside Pumps, vacuum & evaporation, in Lab instruments.
A rotary evaporator spins a flask under vacuum so solvent boils off a sample at a modest temperature. The flask size, the condenser type and the vacuum the seal can hold are the specification. Bumping is a flask that was too full or a vacuum that arrived too fast.
A vacuum pump lowers the pressure above a liquid so it boils at a lower temperature. That is the point of a rotary evaporator: solvent leaves a sample without cooking it. A diaphragm pump or a rotary-vane pump is chosen by the vacuum it reaches and by whether solvent vapour will destroy it. A peristaltic pump moves liquid by squeezing a tube, so the liquid touches only the tube. A barrel pump transfers a larger volume from a drum. The glassware on the evaporator is indexed under ISO laboratory glassware. Solvent identity is on PubChem.
