For many years, rotary evaporators (rotovaps) have been a standard in laboratories and industries that perform chemistry, such as laboratories in the pharmaceutical, academic, government, chemical, life sciences, food & beverage, cleantech, materials, environmental and cannabis sectors. Rotovaps consist of a heating fluid bath, rotating motor, evaporating flask, receiving flask, vacuum source, and condenser. The conventional rotovap condenser requires an external source of cooling material such as dry ice, liquid nitrogen, water or glycol. Glycol requires additional recirculating chiller equipment. Using a proprietary and innovative self-cooling technology, Ecodyst has revolutionized the rotovap to be more efficient, to have a smaller footprint, to have greater output, and to be less expensive to operate. The modern smart self-cooling technology from Ecodyst boosts productivity and prevents productivity downtime. The technology offers a paradigm shift and sets a new benchmark for rotovaps without the use of glycol, dry ice, or water, thus eliminating the major sources of material waste associated with conventional rotovaps.

Engineered for high-speed solvent evaporation and recovery in small- to medium-sized laboratories, the
EcoChyll® X3 is a robust cooling system for chemical, botanical, and other extractions. Using the pioneering
EcoChyll® direct cooling technology, the X3 bridges the gap between small-footprint, benchtop rotary
evaporators and our larger, higher-capacity EcoChyll evaporators. With a true 12 L capacity and compact form
factor, it holds more solvent than a “20 L” rotary evaporator while having a faster evaporation rate and much
shorter total run time.

The EcoChyll® X3 is routinely used downstream of botanical extractions via BHO, CO2, or ethanol. With twin
metallic condenser coils, the EcoChyll® X3 carries out continuous direct-cooling of incoming vapors in an
efficient and environmentally-friendly manner. No glycol or other coolant is necessary, start-up times are far
shorter, and total energy usage is less than half. EcoChyll® evaporators also free up operator time due to lowintervention requirements. Because the evaporation flask is stirred rather than rotating, residual product can
simply be drained from a valve. The EcoChyll X3 can also be set up for more complete process automation,
saving time and money without compromising the quality of your results.

Features :

• Recovers all residual solvents (below 500ppm)
• Designed to handle an extremely wide range of solvents, including water and all common solvents used in the cannabis and hemp industries
• No need to move glassware: The stationary evaporation flask is filled with a siphon feed valve and emptied with a drain valve for uninterrupted operation
• Can be incorporated in-line with botanical extraction or winterization systems and fully automated
• Digital interfaces and data monitoring for stirring rod, vacuum pump, chiller, and heating mantle
• Patented EcoChyll condensation unit reaches -40°C on the coils in under one minute
• Spacious evaporation flask prevents “bumping” of solution into condensation unit
• Single user operation with minimal interference required
• Capable of evaporating ethanol at low temperatures (38C)
• Extremely energy efficient
• Safety features for automatic shutdown
