BÜCHI Rotavapor R-80 & R-180 in Pakistan
Reliable rotary evaporation systems for routine solvent removal, sample concentration and laboratory distillation.
The BÜCHI Rotavapor® R-80 and R-180 provide practical solutions for everyday evaporation in chemical, pharmaceutical, food, academic and research laboratories. Choose the compact R-80 for smaller routine applications or the higher-capacity R-180 where greater flask volume and an electric lift are preferred.
- Rotavapor R-80: compact design with up to 1 L evaporation flask capacity and manual lift.
- Rotavapor R-180: up to 3 L evaporation flask capacity with convenient electric lift.
- Heating bath temperature up to 95 °C on both systems.
- Suitable for solvent removal, concentration, distillation and routine sample preparation.
- Compatible system components include BÜCHI vacuum pumps, vacuum-control interfaces and recirculating cooling solutions.
Supplied and supported in Pakistan by Continental Worldwide Trading Company (CWTC).

Frequently Asked Question
The main difference between R-80 & R-180 related to flask size (1L vs 3L), lift mechanism (manual vs automatic) and application flexibility (R-80 is a basic, entry level model for routine distillations where R-180 is IP42 protection with multiple glass assemblies for more varied applications)
The R-80 is positioned for routine evaporation workflows using evaporating flasks up to 1 L. For larger-volume needs, the R-180 has flask size up to 3L.
The exact scope depends on the selected system and formal quotation. A pump, interface, chiller, glassware and other accessories may be discussed according to the laboratory workflow.
The heating bath temperature for both R-80 and R-180 is 95°C
Suitability depends on the solvent, cooling, vacuum control, safety practices and complete laboratory setup.
A larger model may be appropriate where flask capacity, throughput, bath temperature, lift type or automation needs exceed the R-80’s role
Buchi provides complete integrated system consisting of Rotavapor + Vacuum Pump + Recirculating chiller, however customers can combine existing vacuum pumps and chillers with the R-80 as well.
