tavapor and the Multivapor
In addition to the stand-alone unit, the Multivapor can be used in combination with a rotary evaporator.
The vapor is then first transferred to the condenser assembly of the Rotavapor with the help of the
T-piece. The vacuum is generated by the vacuum pump and regulated by the controller.
The glass T-piece used for this setup is compatible with all BUCHI products and the major manufac-
turers of rotary evaporators. The prerequisite for a compatibility is the presence of an S35 spherical
joint between the condenser and the receiving flask.
4 .15 Refrigerated receiver (optional)
The refrigerated receiver keeps the solvent at a
low temperature throughout the run. It is essen-
tially a horizontal cylindrical receiving flask with
an insulation jacket and an internal cooling loop.
The cooling loop is connected to a recirculating
chiller and keeps its content at a low tempera-
ture. A curved U-tube serves as a level indicator
and allows the flask to be emptied without dis-
connection. The total volume of the flask is 2.5 l.
