Product Overview

The IKA RV 10 auto pro V-C Complete is a fully configured rotary evaporation workstation that combines the RV 10 auto rotary evaporator with a 4-litre digital heating bath, the VACSTAR digital vacuum pump, and the RC 2 lite recirculating chiller. All components and the connections required for operation are included. The RV 10 auto is IKA's flagship rotary evaporator, controlled through a TFT colour graphic display with an integrated vacuum controller, cooling water monitoring, and motorised lift. The vacuum pump is controlled directly by the drive unit via the supplied data cable and enables automatic boiling point detection. The RC 2 lite recirculating chiller delivers 400 W of cooling capacity with a circulation pressure of 0.35 bar and operates to −10 °C, using the natural refrigerant R290.

  • Speed range: 5–300 rpm
  • Heating range: RT–180 °C
  • Heat output: 1 300 W
  • Max. filling volume: 3 L
  • Vacuum range: 1–1 050 mbar
  • Chiller to: −10 °C

Key Features

  • TFT colour graphic display: Intuitive control interface with integrated vacuum controller and cooling water monitoring.
  • Motorised lift with safety stop: In the event of a power failure, the motorised lift automatically raises the evaporation flask clear of the heating bath.
  • Integrated vacuum controller: Automatically regulates vacuum and cooling water. Individually adjustable cleaning cycle reduces maintenance intervals and extends system service life.
  • Vertical coated condenser: Transparently coated vertical condenser with 3 cooling coils and specially designed glass guides. Cooling surface of 1 500 cm².
  • Automatic boiling point detection: The VACSTAR digital vacuum pump interfaces directly with the RV 10 auto drive unit via data cable for automatic boiling point detection.
  • Extended programming via ramps: Individual processes are configured through ramp programming. Soft start, intermittent clockwise and anticlockwise rotation, and timer function are included.
  • Multiple safety circuits: Individually adjustable safety temperature circuits, dry run protection, adjustable end position detection to protect against glass breakage, coated glass sets, and a locking function.
  • R290 refrigerant in chiller: The RC 2 lite uses the natural refrigerant R290, which has a low global warming potential. Stainless steel mesh filter is easily accessible and cleanable.
  • Remote control and firmware updates: USB and RS 232 interfaces support remote operation via IKA labworldsoft® software and firmware updates via the Firmware Update Tool.

Frequently Asked Questions about the RV 10 auto pro V-C Complete Rotary Evaporator Workstation

Q: What components are included in the V-C Complete package?

A: The bundle includes the RV 10 auto pro rotary evaporator, the VACSTAR digital vacuum pump, the RC 2 lite recirculating chiller, a vertical coated glassware set (RV 10.10), a vapour tube, connecting tubing, a VSE 1 unit, and two Euro mains cables. All connections required for operation are included.

Q: What is the vacuum range of this system?

A: The integrated vacuum controller adjusts and measures across a range of 1–1 050 mbar, with a measurement accuracy of ±1 mbar. The VACSTAR digital vacuum pump achieves a minimum vacuum of 2 mbar and is controlled directly by the RV 10 auto drive unit via data cable.

Q: What happens if there is a power failure during operation?

A: The motorised lift incorporates a safety stop function. In the event of a power failure, it automatically raises the evaporation flask out of the heating bath, reducing the risk of sample loss or thermal damage.

Q: Can the system detect the boiling point of the sample automatically?

A: Yes. When the VACSTAR digital vacuum pump is connected via the supplied data cable, the RV 10 auto can perform automatic boiling point detection.

Q: Does the RV 10 auto support programmed or timed runs?

A: Yes. The RV 10 auto supports ramp-based programming of individual processes. It also includes a timer function, soft start, and intermittent clockwise and anticlockwise rotation.

Q: Can the RV 10 auto be operated remotely or via software?

A: Yes. The USB and RS 232 interfaces support remote control via IKA’s labworldsoft® software. Firmware updates are also possible via the IKA Firmware Update Tool.

Q: What refrigerant does the RC 2 lite chiller use?

A: The RC 2 lite uses R290, a natural refrigerant with a lower global warming potential than many synthetic alternatives. The source notes this as environmentally preferable and well suited to future regulatory requirements.
