Rotary oven offers cost effective option
Grant Instruments' new Hot-ROCS rotary oven offers a reliable and cost effective solution for small-scale solid phase or solution phase chemical synthesis requirements.
The company is adding the Hot-ROCS rotary oven to its range of Grant Boekel products. Designed with a particularly small footprint to fit easily inside a standard fume hood, the oven accommodates a variety of reaction vessels.
The Hot-ROCS rotary oven provides controlled heating and mixing of reagents during chemical synthesis. Unlike most other shaking or stirring reactor products, it produces a rotation of the reaction vessels. This induces tumbling of the vessel contents, providing the effective mixing mechanism required for controlled synthesis reactions. This mixing action is particularly beneficial for solid phase synthesis, preventing resin settlement or compaction.
The oven combines precise temperature control from ambient +10°C to 100°C with a variable vessel rotation speed of 0 to 60 rpm. The PD temperature controller ensures rapid heat-up and superior stability of ±0.5°C. The push button temperature adjustment and bright LED display makes the unit very easy to use.
It is supplied with a polycarbonate cover, stainless steel drip tray and carousel for all standard 35mm diameter reaction bottles. A wide range of accessories is also available for greater versatility.
