Rotary Evaporator EcoChyll X5 from Ecodyst
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.
Designed for process scientists on a budget who cannot sacrifice quality, the EcoChyll® X5 is an extremely
efficient alternative to all existing evaporative technologies. Compared to 20 L rotary evaporators from major
manufacturers, the EcoChyll X5 provides over twice the capacity at a substantially lower cost. The patented
direct cooling technology, direct heat, and stirred evaporation flask all contribute to dramatically lower energy
consumption, without requiring a drop of glycol or other coolant fluid, significantly reducing your operating
costs while increasing your recovery rates.
With a true 22 L capacity and a small footprint, it is a premium compromise between cost and convenience.
Our cost-competitive evaporator comes as a turn-key solution for solvent recovery and decarboxylation. The
EcoChyll® X5 automates the vapor cooling process to free-up user time for other operations, while reducing run
time due to faster evaporation rates and significantly shorter start-up time. This method is now the preferred
solution for evaporation in a wide range of botanical extraction applications.
