RE-202-A Rotary Evaporator, BO-302-A Oil Bath (5L), Glassware A Overview
The RE-202-A Rotary Evaporator, BO-302-A Oil Bath (5L), Glassware A is a complete distillation system from Yamato Scientific, supplied by LabSupplies.com as an authorized dealer. Built around the RE202A main unit, this Rotary Evaporators set pairs the BO302A oil bath with Glassware Set A, delivering a 5–315 rpm rotation range and evaporation rates up to 23 ml/min.
Construction combines chromium-free electrogalvanized steel with a baked-on finish, anodized aluminum, and fiberglass-reinforced polybutylene terephthalate resin. A double corrugated cooling condenser supplies 0.143 m² of surface area, while the DC brushless servo motor drives forward, reverse, and auto-inversion rotation modes.
Power draws from a 100–115V, 50/60 Hz supply rated at 1 A. Packed for shipping it measures 36 × 36 × 27 in at 90 lb. Manufactured in China, the unit ships with a condenser insulation kit and a manual spring-loaded jack offering 200 mm of stepless lift.
Key Features
- Wide rotation range: 5–315 rpm with evaporation up to 23 ml/min for varied solvent loads.
- Set inversion design: glassware and bath mount on either side, left or right, to match the user's dominant hand and bench layout.
- Manual slide jack: spring-loaded lift to a 200 mm maximum height, stepless with one-touch lock.
- Digital speed control: display with control knob and 8 selectable brightness levels.
- Condenser insulation kit: standard equipment that suppresses condensation on the condenser surface.
- Layered safety: motor overload, over-/low-voltage, and speed-sensor-error protection, plus AC adapter short-circuit, overcurrent, and overvoltage protection.
How to Choose the Right Rotary Evaporator
Selecting a rotary evaporator set comes down to matching bath capacity, temperature reach, control type, and site power to your distillation workflow. Use the criteria below to confirm the RE202A configuration fits your lab.
- Bath capacity and type: the BO302A oil bath holds roughly 5 L (Φ240 × H119 mm) and reaches RT +10°C to 180°C, suiting high-boiling solvents beyond a water bath's range.
- Flask compatibility: evaporation flasks from 50–2000 ml and receiving flasks from 100–2000 ml determine batch volume; an optional reducer adapts smaller flasks.
- Control type: a digital speed display with control knob and 5–315 rpm range supports both gentle and rapid evaporation.
- Voltage and power: confirm a 100–115V, 50/60 Hz, 1 A circuit is available at the install location.
- Solvent chemistry: the FKM vacuum seal is standard, with a PTFE seal recommended for ketone and ether solvents.
- Footprint and weight: Packed for shipping it measures 36 × 36 × 27 in at 90 lb.
