FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The Ultimate Rotary Evaporator Vacuum System - PC3001 VARIO™


PC3001 VARIO™ Self Adjusting Vacuum System

Integrated Automatic Vacuum System

 

The NEW VACUUBRAND® PC3001 VARIO™ vacuum system automatically determines boiling points and optimizes vacuum levels with minimal oversight. Featuring the CVC3000 controller with graphic and jogwheel interface, the PC3001 can also be programmed or provide zero-hysteresis vacuum. It’s sized perfectly for benchtop rotary evaporators. Evaporate up to 30% faster, with virtually no bumping. Pump is extremely quiet and low-maintenance. New low-profile condenser reduces overall height. Available from laboratory dealers.

 

The VACUUBRAND® PC3001 VARIO™ is the best choice vacuum system for benchtop sized rotary evaporators. The PC3001 VARIO runs your rotary evaporator with minimal supervision, continuously optimizing the vacuum to changing application conditions for faster evaporation and tighter control, while freeing you up to do more important work. It features a VARIO version of our MD1C vacuum pump, with integrated solvent recovery in a compact, attractive package.

 

The PC3001 VARIO vacuum system features the NEW CVC3000 vacuum controller with intuitive menu-driven graphic interface, with a 'turn-and-push' jog wheel for quick adjustments. The CVC3000 in the PC3001 adjusts the pump speed, providing smooth vacuum adjustment, eliminating the need for solenoid valves or pump switching, and offering control options previously unavailable with vacuum pumps, such as:

 

Automatic Evaporation Control

The PC3001 VARIO can automatically find and follow boiling point curves, continuously optimizing vacuum levels for maximum evaporation without bumping. The result: evaporation up to 30% faster than with conventional electronic controllers.

 

Single Point Vacuum Control

The PC3001 VARIO can maintain stable, hysteresis-free vacuum at a single setpoint.

 

Programs

The PC3001 VARIO can have up to ten multi-step user programs for when operations need to be standardized.

 

Computer Control and Validation

The PC3001 VARIO features a bi-directional RS232 port, allowing process validation, and execution of sophisticated pumping programs.

 

Additional benefits of VARIO control and the resultant reduced average pumping speed include significantly reduced noise and diaphragm wear compared to standard VACUUBRAND pumps, which are already among the quietest and lowest maintenance pumps around!

 

Learn about the productivity benefits of VARIO technology.

Of course, the PC3001 VARIO shares all of the other performance features of our other chemistry-design diaphragm pumps, like elimination of oil-changes, flowpaths constructed of corrosion-resistant fluoropolymers, integrated gas ballast and low-maintenance - typically 10,000-15,000 operating hours between scheduled service stops.

 

The PC3001 VARIO has an ultimate vacuum of 2 mbar, and a free air capacity (at maximum speed) of 0.94 cfm.
