Rotational Vacuum Concentrator RVC 2-33 IR 6 Operation Timer Evaporation The time can be set between 1 minute and 200 hours. Using the down key as of the time 00:01 h:m the symbol appears. The timer is deactivated and the RVC operates continuously. Timer Heating The value that is set under “Timer Evaporation” is also used for “Timer Heating”. For some evaporation processes, however, it makes sense to reduce the heating time. In this case, the value “Timer Heating” can be changed.

Rotational Vacuum Concentrator RVC 2-33 IR 6 Operation Temperature Warm-up During the warm-up phase, the rotor temperature is set to the set temperature. Click at button push If this function is activated, a brief sound signal can be heard whenever a key is pressed. High temperature resolution Temperatures are displayed in the values window with a resolution of 1 /10°C, normally with a resolution of 1°C. Rotor speed The rotor speed can be set in a range between 100 rpm and 1,750 rpm.

Rotational Vacuum Concentrator RVC 2-33 IR 8 Maintenance and service 8.1.3 Accessories For the care of the accessories, special safety measures must be considered as these are measures that will ensure operational safety at the same time. CAUTION Chemical reactions as well as stress-corrosion (combination of oscillating pressure and chemical reaction) can affect or destroy the metals. Barely detectable cracks on the surface can expand and weaken the material without any visible signs.

Rotational Vacuum Concentrator RVC 2-33 IR 8 Maintenance and service 8.1.4 Glass breakage In the case of glass breakage, immediately remove all glass particles (e.g. with a vacuum cleaner). Replace the rubber cushions since even thorough cleaning will not remove all glass particles. CAUTION Glass particles will damage the surface coating (e.g. anodising) of the buckets, which will then lead to corrosion. Glass particles in the rubber cushions of the buckets will cause glass breakage again.

Rotational Vacuum Concentrator RVC 2-33 IR 12 Glossary 12 Glossary Boiling retardation The temperature of a liquid can rise above the boiling point without the liquid actually starting to boil. Vibrations or shocks quickly lead to the formation of a large gas bubble that escapes explosively from the vessel. This phenomenon is known as boiling retardation. It occurs when neither the liquid nor the wall of the vessel include any condensation nuclei at which vapour bubbles might form.
PAGE 94
Rotational Vacuum Concentrator RVC 2-33 IR 12 Glossary Safety pressure Since the vacuum has a dominating influence on the product temperature, Martin Christ Gefriertrocknungsanlagen GmbH has integrated a so-called safety pressure function into their units in order to protect the products. If the pressure inside the rotor chamber rises too quickly – above the safety limit – the energy supply of the unit will be interrupted so that the evaporation process slows down. Fig.
