The RV 10 control the flagship of the IKA Rotary Evaporator line. Its comes with convincing features like color graphic display operation, integrated vacuum controller, cooling water management and sophisticated safety features. The RV 10 control is designed for safe, efficient and economical operation. The automated management of vacuum levels as well as cooling water makes for an optimal distilling experience. Operating the unit through the color graphic display quickly leads the user to where they want to be. The condenser unit has special designed glass tubes that utilize the 1500 cm² surface extremely efficient. The RV 10 control allows the user to program up to 10 individual procedures. Additional features such as smooth start, left-right interval or timer function capability support the user in their daily lab work. Another important aspect of the RV 10 control are the sophisticated safety features. The motorized lift has an automated lift-out function in case of power outage to prevent superheating of the solvent. Safety temperature circuits can be set individually. Dry-run protection, adjustable lower end stop and lock function of bath setting complete the line of safety features. Furthermore, IKA offers a choice of coated glassware for increased safety needs. The RS 232 interface allows for remote control via IKAs “labworldsoft”. The Heating bath is controlled via the IR interface from the main unit.

Purchase of an RV 10 Control V with dry ice condenser, coated, also includes a 1 liter evaporating flask and 1 liter receiving flask which are coated for shatter protection.
Do all options include a Woulff bottle?
Yes. Purchase of any IKA RV 10 Control V package includes a Woulff bottle.
Is the RV 10 Control V certified by UL?
Yes, it is UL listed.
What is the minimum vacuum that the RV 10 system can handle?
With coated glassware, a pressure of 1 mbar is possible. Note that all vacuum connections must be vacuum tight or else a pressure this low will not be achievable. Most vacuum pumps do not create vacuums down to 1 mbar, so the vacuum pump will usually be the limiting factor.
