What details should be paid attention to during the handling of the 20L Lab Rotovap？

20L Lab Rotovap is suitable for reflux operation, rapid evaporation of large amounts of solvents, concentration of trace components, and reaction research processes that require continuous stirring. The 20L Lab Rotovap system can be sealed and decompressed to 400~600mmhg; the solvent in the distillation flask is heated with a heating bath, and the heating temperature can be close to the boiling point of the solvent; it can also be rotated at a speed of 50~160 RPM to form a thin film of solvent and increase the evaporation area. In addition, under the action of the high-efficiency cooler, the hot steam can be quickly liquefied to accelerate the evaporation rate of the alkali.

The 20L Lab Rotovap is mainly used for the continuous distillation of a large amount of volatile solvents under reduced pressure, such as the receiving liquid in the distillation extraction and chromatographic separation process. The basic working principle analysis of the Lab Rotovap is to distill under reduced pressure by continuously rotating the distillation flask. As the heat source for distillation, it is often equipped with some corresponding constant temperature water tanks.

When transporting the 20L Lab Rotovap, please note:

1. The 20L Lab Rotovap must be carried by the measurement personnel and must not be bumped or inverted.

2. When transporting the Lab Rotovap, it must be placed in a cushioned shockproof box, and the words "Do not invert" must be marked on the outside of the box, and the words "Optical or electronic instrument" must be written. Handle it carefully and do not press it heavily. If necessary, someone should be sent to escort it.

3. When transporting the 20L Lab Rotovap by car, it must be prevented from shaking and vibration. It should generally be placed on the front seat cushion of the car, or supported by a person on the legs, or carried on the back, and must not be placed on the bottom cabinet of the car.

4. When the mobile platform moves a short distance, the instrument should be lifted and lowered vertically to keep the longitudinal axis of the instrument vertical. Do not hit the shoulder to avoid damaging the instrument or the instrument axis.
