Vacuubrand PC 3001 Vario Pro Diaphragm Pumping System
The Vacuubrand PC 3001 Vario Pro Diaphragm Pumping System is a sophisticated and efficient solution for complex evaporations in laboratory settings that require an ultimate vacuum of at least 2 mbar. This system offers self-regulating vacuum control, automatically adapting to changing conditions to ensure fast and bump-free evaporation without the need for programming or constant monitoring. It can complete evaporation or concentration tasks up to 30% faster than traditional electronic controllers while capturing nearly all vapors at the pump. The system includes a computer link on the rear of the controller for process validation and boasts very low energy consumption, a small footprint, and quiet operation.
This pumping system features an integral oil-free diaphragm pump with a corrosion-resistant PTFE flowpath and gas ballast for condensate purging. The CVC3000 vacuum controller provides intuitive control options, including automatic evaporation control and single-point vacuum control, along with the ability to program up to ten multi-step procedures. With improved free air capacity and efficient solvent recovery, this system is an excellent choice for bench-top rotary evaporators, making laboratory work more efficient and productive.
All of our equipment is in excellent condition and will be fully tested to perform at factory specifications before being shipped.
