Description
The Across International SolventVap 2L Rotary Evaporator is a high-performance laboratory rotovap system designed for efficient solvent removal and distillation. Featuring a digital temperature-controlled water bath, manual lift mechanism, and a vertical cold trap condenser, this system provides reliable and reproducible evaporation results while maintaining a compact benchtop footprint.
Unlike traditional condenser systems that require a recirculating chiller, the cold trap condenser design allows the use of dry ice, providing highly efficient condensation while reducing equipment costs and simplifying setup.
The SolventVap system is constructed with high borosilicate glass 3.3, providing excellent chemical resistance and durability for demanding laboratory environments. Safety features such as dry-run protection, water bath over-temperature shutoff, and fuse protection ensure safe operation during continuous laboratory use.

What Is a Rotary Evaporator?
A rotary evaporator (rotovap) is a laboratory instrument used for the efficient removal of solvents from chemical samples through evaporation under reduced pressure. Rotary evaporation is commonly used to remove low boiling point solvents such as hexane, ethanol, or ethyl acetate from chemical mixtures.
The combination of rotation, controlled heating, and vacuum pressure allows solvents to evaporate quickly and gently without degrading temperature-sensitive compounds.
