Re-212-A Rotary Evaporator, Bm-312-A Oil Bath (5L), Glassware C Overview
The Re-212-A Rotary Evaporator, Bm-312-A Oil Bath (5L), Glassware C from Yamato Scientific is a complete distillation system pairing the RE212A main unit with a 5 L oil bath rated from RT +10°C to 180°C. LabSupplies.com supplies this set as an authorized Yamato Scientific dealer. Glassware Set C ships with a cold-finger vertical condenser sized for volatile, low-boiling-point solvents.
Construction combines a chromium-free electrogalvanized steel exterior with a baked-on finish, anodized aluminum, and fiberglass-reinforced polybutylene terephthalate resin. A DC brushless simple-servo motor drives rotation across 5–315 rpm, while the double-corrugated cooling condenser supplies 0.143 m² of surface area. Manual spring-loaded jack lifts the flask up to 200 mm with stepless, one-touch locking.
Power draws from a 200–230V single-phase, 50/60 Hz supply at 1 A through a round-terminal connection. Footprint measures 36 × 36 × 27 inches, and the assembled system weighs 90 lbs. Manufactured in Switzerland, this unit features a set-inversion design that lets glassware and bath mount on either the left or right side.
Key Features
- Set inversion design: glassware and oil bath mount on either the left or right side, adapting to the operator's dominant hand and bench layout.
- Rotation modes: forward, reverse, and auto-inversion across a 5–315 rpm range, with evaporation capacity up to 23 ml/min.
- Digital speed display: control knob with an 8-level brightness display for clear readout in varied lighting.
- Condenser insulation kit standard: suppresses condensation on the condenser surface during operation.
- Manual slide-jack lift: spring-loaded jack raises the flask to a 200 mm maximum height with stepless, one-touch lock adjustment.
- Layered safety protection: motor overload, over-/low-voltage and speed-sensor-error protection, plus AC adapter short-circuit, overcurrent, and overvoltage safeguards.
How to Choose the Right Rotary Evaporator
Matching a rotary evaporator to your workflow comes down to solvent type, bath capacity, control sophistication, and site power. Review these axes against your distillation requirements before specifying a unit.
- Bath capacity and temperature range: this set includes a 5 L oil bath rated RT +10°C to 180°C, supporting higher-boiling-point solvents than a comparable water bath.
- Glassware configuration: Set C uses a cold-finger vertical condenser suited to volatile, low-boiling-point solvents, so match the condenser style to your distillate.
- Control type: a digital speed display with a control knob and forward/reverse/auto-inversion modes gives repeatable, hands-on rotation control.
- Voltage and site power: confirm your facility supplies 200–230V single-phase, 50/60 Hz at 1 A through a round-terminal connection before installation.
- Flask compatibility: verify your evaporation flask (50–2000 ml) and receiving flask (100–2000 ml) fall within the supported volume range.
- Seal material: FKM is standard; specify PTFE seals when running ketone or ether solvents to protect chemical compatibility.
