Vacuum drying ovens from the APT.line™

VD 23

Vacuum drying oven for non-flammable solvents

The VD series offers safe drying with homogenous temperature distribution, thanks to its APT.line™ air jacket system. Optimum heat transfer through patented expansion rack technology; the racks can be positioned as needed and are easy to clean. In addition to these many features, the units have an individually programmable controller.
