Designed for reliable and efficient evaporation or vacuum distillation. This Heidolph 20L system includes everything you need to begin evaporation and distillation on a large scale. All tubing and connection accessories are also included. The system is UL Listed.
This Heidolph 20 Liter Industrial Package Includes:
Hei-VAP Industrial Bath (036072402)
Heating Bath Volume – 24L Water, 22L Oil
Heating Bath Temp Range – 20°C to +180°C
Large touch screen control panel with illuminated displays for all process parameters, programmable ramps
Receiver cassettes and additional PMMA door housing protect against threat of glassware breakage
Integrated refill water system, spillover prevention and a release valve on the bottom
High-impact, transparent PMMA door
Non-fogging safety glass and metal frame guard hood for operator protection
Illuminated evaporation flask for increased visibility
Universal heating bath accommodates water or other fluids
Vacuum Pump – RotaVac 036304775 Valve Vacuum Control – Less babysitting, more efficient recovery, vacuum pump preservation. This system’s vacuum control is a solenoid valve cycling between optimal vacuum set points. Vacuum control allows for “walk away” distillation, rather than having a dedicated person controlling the vacuum.
This vacuum pump has an ultimate vacuum of 2mbar (1.5torr) and suction of 50L per min.
Hei-Chill3 Chiller 050000100Undersized or inefficient chillers can be a weak link in rotary evaporation or vacuum distillation performance. On less expensive models, be sure to compare performance data of the included chiller. The HeiChill3 Chiller is made in Germany and has a cooling capacity of 3000 watts at 20C. An initial supply of water/glycol type fluid is included with shipment.
Quality Glassware From Germany – Largest Condensing Surface With A1C Configuration. Thin, unbalanced glass can easily break, contributing to on-going maintenance and consumables costs. Heidolph’s glass is high quality lab-grade glass manufactured in Germany. This complete system includes Heidolph’s A1C Glassware – ideal for highest recovery rates & low boiling solvents.
1 each ascending condenser
1 each descending condenser
1 each 20 Liter evaporating flask
2 each 10 liter receiving flasks

Shopping for a Rotary Evaporator? Here’s what to watch out for.
Cascade partners with Heidolph because there are key differences between Heidolph and less expensive rotary evaporators.
Rotary evaporators are systems made up of key components (glass surface area, vacuum pump, vacuum control, chiller) that can make or break overall system performance and rates of evaporation and recovery.
All rotary evaporators are not created equal. Many resellers or low-cost importers will include underperforming chillers, loose or non-existent vacuum control, thin glass and lesser vacuum pumps that may lower the initial price tag, but end up costing the customer plenty in on-going maintenance, inefficient evaporation times and lost man hours tuning the systems.
Vacuum control is a key component for efficient rotary evaporation. Vacuum control allows for “walk away” distillation, rather than having a person dedicated to controlling vacuum. When vacuum levels are manually controlled but not consistently monitored, the vacuum pump can be quickly destroyed and solvent recovery is much less efficient.
Rotary evaporators also have motors that spin the flasks. Less expensive motors can run hot and overheat. When this happens, processing must stop until the motor cools down. Thin, unbalanced glass can easily break, contributing to consumables costs.
The Heidolph Difference
Heidolph offers a best in class, 3 year warranty and on-site expert installation and training. Expect this investment to have a performance life of 10-15 years and low cost of ownership.
Protect Expensive Product. A temperature sensor powers off the bath in case of any uncontrolled heat-up event.
Work Smarter, More Effectively. Minimize Supervision Time. The unique integrated evaporating flask support system allows for “one person operation” to remove the flask in just moments.
The automatic water bath refill systemalong with an additional control panel for filling and electronics allow for use over an extended period of time and eliminates with worry of running dry.
The secondary 10L recovery flask allows drainage without breaking vacuum. This is a tremendous time savings in the process of rotary evaporation.
Heidolph Safety Features
All condensor and receiving flasks are protected by transparent, high impact PMMA doors.
A non-fogging guard hood protects the bath completely, but still allows for visible monitoring.
A temperature sensor powers off the bath in case of any uncontrolled heat-up event.
