ATTENTION! Avoid delayed boiling!
Never heat the evaporating flask in the heating bath without
switching on the rotary drive! If there are signs that the contents
of the flask are beginning to disintegrate in the course of a chemi-
cal reaction or distillation (for example, sudden foaming or outga-
ses) switch the heating off immediately and lift the evaporating
flask out of the heating bath using the stand. Evacuate the danger
zone and warn those in the surrounding area!
ATTENTION! Rotating parts are a source of danger!
Never rotate the evaporating flask on the raised stand.
Always lower the stand for rotation. Ensure that parts of the body,
hair, items of clothing and jewellery cannot get caught in rotating
parts.
There may be dangerous electrostatic activity between the medi-
um and the drive unit.
Check that the filled distillation flask is balanced when setting the
speed. Imbalances can cause uncontrolled resonance behaviour in
the appliance/equipment which could damage or destroy glass
equipment! Set the drive to a speed which ensures that none of
the medium is catapulted out by the rotating evaporating flask in
the heating bath.
Risk of burns! The motor and glass parts may be hot during
operation and for a long time afterwards. Always wear your
personal protective equipment!
If the power fails or the motor stops during operation, you must
remove the evaporating flask from the heat source immediately by
raising the stand.
The machine may only be opened by trained specialists - even
during repairs. The machine is to be unplugged from the mains
before opening. Live parts inside the machine may still be live for
some time after unplugging from the mains.

Correct use

The IKA RV 05 basic is designed for evating solutions and for
rapid distillation of liquids. The medium in the operating evapora-
tor flask is circulated by rotation. The surface the liquid is increa-
sed significantly by wetting the inner surface of the flask with the
liquids. This results in a rapid exchange of heat through a large sur-
face.
Operating in a vacuum allows for gentle evaporation.

Unpacking

Please unpack the equipment carefully and check for any dama-
ges. It is important that any damages which may have arisen
during transport are ascertained when unpacking. If applicable a
fact report must be set immediately (post, rail or forwarder).
The delivery scope covers:
One IKA RV 05 basic, one extension, one fastening screw, one
hexagon socket screw, one ring spanner and one set of operating
instructions.
