Operating mode (14) The rotational vacuum concentrator is in the standby mode. All aggregates are switched off. The rotational vacuum concentrator is in the run mode. The timer is deactivated. The rotational vacuum concentrator is in the run mode. The timer is activated.

RVC 2-25 CD& 6 Operation 6.5.2 Mode The mode selection can be activated by pressing the left-hand function key "mode" in the active values window. The following phases are available: • Press the left-hand function key "mode". The menu "start with phase…" appears (see figure). • Select the desired menu item with the up and down keys. • Press the right-hand function key "enter" to confirm. Fig. 23: Selecting the mode Opening the lid The lid can only be opened if the rotor is at a standstill.
PAGE 41
RVC 2-25 CD& 6 Operation • • Open the lid and remove the rotor in order to load it with the product or insert the loaded rotor. Close the lid. A menu appears: Fig. 25: Continuing the evaporation • Continue the process by selecting "Evaporation manual" or "Evaporation program". Stopping the warm-up phase prematurely During the warm-up phase, the functions "Open lid", "Continue with phase" or "Stop warm-up" can be selected with the right-hand function key "mode".

RVC 2-25 CD& 6 Operation Timer Evaporation The time can be set between 1 minute and 200 hours. Using the down key as of the time 00:01 h:m the symbol appears. The timer is deactivated and the RVC operates continuously. Timer Heating The value that is set under “Timer Evaporation” is also used for “Timer Heating”. For some evaporation processes, however, it makes sense to reduce the heating time. In this case, the value “Timer Heating” can be changed.
PAGE 44
RVC 2-25 CD& 6 Operation 6.5.3.2 Program administration Contrary to a manual evaporation process, a program is used for a timercontrolled, pre-programmed process (evaporation program). An evaporation program is divided into several sections. Every section of the program has set values for the time, temperature, vacuum, safety pressure, and speed. You can create up to 16 individual evaporation programs. Up to 80 sections can be assigned to each of these programs.
PAGE 45
RVC 2-25 CD& 6 Operation Creating a new program A new program can be created based on a fixed program template and adapted to specific needs by changing the set values and by adding and deleting certain sections. The control system automatically assigns a program number to every new program. • Select "New program" from the menu "Program administration" (see figure) and confirm. The following message will appear: Fig. 32: Message "New program created" • • Press the right-hand function key to confirm.
PAGE 46
RVC 2-25 CD& 6 Operation • • Use the up/down keys to scroll through the sections. The section to be edited is in the middle column of the table. Press the right-hand function key "edit" to confirm. The editing menu is displayed. Fig. 36: Program section menu • • In this menu, the set values of the selected section can be changed, the selected section can be deleted, or a new section can be added to the selected section. Confirm the input and quit the menu.

RVC 2-25 CD& 8 Maintenance and service In order to completely remove the glass particles and metal dust from the rotor chamber • Grease the upper third of the rotor chamber with e.g. Vaseline. • Then, let the rotor rotate for a few minutes at maximum speed and atmospheric pressure. The glass and metal particles will now collect at the greased part. • Remove the grease with the glass and metal particles with a cloth. • If necessary, repeat this procedure. • Clean the rotor shaft.

RVC 2-25 CD& 11 Appendix 7. Interrupting an evaporation process: • Press the left-hand function key "mode". • Select "Stop evaporation" and confirm. Without an interruption, the evaporation process ends after the preselected time. The following process runs automatically: • At maximum speed: the stop valve closes the connection to the vacuum pump, the aeration valve opens; the rotor speed is maintained for 30 sec (aeration phase, to avoid delays in boiling). • Rotor decelerates until it is at a standstill.

RVC 2-25 CD& 12 Glossary 12 Glossary Boiling retardation The temperature of a liquid can rise above the boiling point without the liquid actually starting to boil. Vibrations or shocks quickly lead to the formation of a large gas bubble that escapes explosively from the vessel. This phenomenon is known as boiling retardation. It occurs when neither the liquid nor the wall of the vessel include any condensation nuclei at which vapour bubbles might form.
PAGE 82
RVC 2-25 CD& 12 Glossary Safety pressure Since the vacuum has a dominating influence on the product temperature, Martin Christ Gefriertrocknungsanlagen GmbH has integrated a so-called safety pressure function into their units in order to protect the products. If the pressure inside the rotor chamber rises too quickly – above the safety limit – the energy supply of the unit will be interrupted so that the evaporation process slows down. Fig.
