User Warning WARNING Failure to follow all warning and instructions could result in serious injury. Your safety is very important to us, we urge you to take the following precautions when using this product. We are not responsible for injury or damage caused by misuse. •... - Page 3 Purpose Rotary Evaporators are used to distill solvents from compounds with precise evaporation. These are especially useful when trying to separate organic compounds from ethanol, or any other low boiling point solvents. Boiling points can be lowered by pulling a vacuum on the system. The evaporating flask rotates with variable speeds, allowing you to spin the solution into a thin film around the flask.

TEMP: Displays the current temperature in degrees Celsius. RUN: Indicates when in heating or rotating status. Heating indicator: Arrows appear when the heating function is operating REV SET: Indicates the manually set speed in revolutions per minute.
- Page 10 Operation Panel Instructions Powering the unit: Plug in the power cord and press the on/off switch on the lower left side of body. When the rotary evaporator is on: 1. After the controller is powered on, it performs a self-test where all the values are displayed. This is a standard state.
- Page 11 Operation of over-temperature protector Over-temperature protector is an independent protective system. When temperature is out of control due to failure of the controller or the temperature in the working room reaches the set value for temperature limit on the over-temperature dial, the protector will cut off heating automatically and give an alarm sound.
