As summer heat intensifies, stepping outside means being greeted by a wave of hot air. After just five minutes on the road, we're all "well-done" acquaintances. You finally make it into the lab, still dripping with sweat, only to turn around and run a heating experiment – putting on a brave face while silently suffering inside. If it were just a matter of heating things up, you could step away for a bit to catch a breath of cool air. But when you’re working on a distillation project, you have to stay right by the equipment the entire time, keeping a close eye on the thermometer and the graduated cylinder—with even more focus than you’d give to stock charts. When dealing with special samples like biofuels or mixed solvents, you also have to repeatedly fine-tune the heating parameters by hand, and you can’t afford to let your guard down for a single moment.

One-Touch Liberation! VD10 Atmospheric Distillation Tester – Let You Stay Cool All Summer Long!
The VD10 fully automatic atmospheric distillation tester from AD Systems (France) is equipped with a pair of "intelligent eyes." Its patented image recognition algorithm monitors the sample condition inside the flask in real time and automatically adjusts the heating rate. It encapsulates the "veteran operator's experience" right into the instrument. Just power it on and run the test – zero programming required. Even a novice can become a skilled operator in seconds!
It delivers true "one-touch distillation!" Simply load the sample, press start, and the entire process runs without any manual intervention – freeing you from the sweltering operation station and unleashing more working energy. The vision system features a foolproof design that automatically verifies whether the flask is properly installed and whether the correct heating plate is in place. Even when you're feeling groggy from the heat, you won't have to worry about setup errors – eliminating wasted rework.
The VD10 is equipped with a hybrid cooling system that delivers a significant upgrade in cooling efficiency. It can cool the condenser tube from room temperature down to 0°C in just 3 minutes, effectively shortening test duration. Built-in sensors automatically adjust the condenser temperature above the dew point during standby to prevent condensation on the condenser tube – eliminating water droplets that could interfere with the initial boiling point (IBP) reading. The receiver end is equipped with optical sensors that accurately read volume even with "smoky" products
The VD10 supports one-click data printing, USB export, and seamless integration with laboratory LIMS systems. Distillation reports are generated automatically, maximizing workflow efficiency – so you can leave work on time without staying late to compile data!
You may step away from the instrument, but safety protection remains online at all times. The VD10 is equipped with dual safeguards – a flame sensor and visual monitoring – along with an automatic fire extinguishing system that activates immediately upon detecting a fire.
Stop struggling with manual distillation apparatus! The VD10 fully automatic atmospheric distillation tester delivers safety, accuracy, and comfort – boosting your efficiency to the max and ensuring your data is flawless.
