The PC 3001 Vario automatic chemistry vacuum pumping system from Vacuubrand offers fully automated vacuum control system.
Applications include rotary evaporation, vacuum concentration, vacuum drying, general distillations and filtration.
PC 3001 Vario is an oil-free, corrosion-resistant pumping system with 'high' vacuum.
The outstanding ultimate vacuum of 2 mbar allows use with high boiling point solvents like DMSO or DMF at temperatures as low as room temperature.
The vacuum controller's software automatically detects the required process vacuum and tracks changes in the system.
Common problems in distillations, such as bumping of solvents, are prevented, which lets users concentrate on real research work rather than babysitting vacuum applications.
Vacuubrand's encapsulated cylinder-head design with stability cores prevents 3D plastic creeping - outwards, inwards and downwards - which is a common reason for performance loss.
Together with the non-contact flat sandwich diaphragm design, this provides long-term performance stability and reliability, but most importantly, it provides no stress on the motor.
The result is low noise, low temperature and a much longer life expectancy.
Vacuubrand wear-part lifetime is up to 20,000h.
A further advantage of the non-contact flat sandwich technology is higher performance under vacuum, leading to shorter process times.
PC 3001 Vario comes complete with solvent-recovery options including water or dry-ice condensers.
