Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the benefit of drying under a vacuum?
Vacuum drying lowers the boiling point of solvents, allowing for rapid evaporation at much lower temperatures, which protects heat-sensitive samples from degradation.
2. Does the Memmert VO series include a vacuum pump?
While the ovens provide the vacuum-tight chamber, specialized modules like the Memmert PMP 29 vacuum pump module are often required to provide the actual suction and are sold as integrated accessories.
3. What is the maximum temperature for the Thermo Kendro VT series?
Depending on the model, the VT series can reach temperatures of +200°C (VT 6025) or even +300°C (VT 6130P) to accommodate different industrial requirements.
4. What is the capacity range of the Memmert VO vacuum ovens?
The VO series is highly scalable, with common laboratory sizes including 29 litres (VO29), 49 litres (VO49), and 101 litres (VO101).
