The KDL 5 is probably the most flexible and versatile lab unit from UIC. Thanks to its capability and effectiveness, it has become a reference model for the entire industry. Choosing from a broad range of building blocks and variants it may be configured both as a universal multipurpose plant or customized for a specific application. Its strongest footprint is also in research and development labs but there are also many customers who use the KDL 5 as a production plant for applications involving smaller batch sizes (cosmetics, pharma).

Evaporator temperatures may be as high as 350 °C. For highly viscuous materials and substances with high melting points the feed- and discharge systems may be trace heated. We may also offer a fully heatable KDL 5 evaporator with independently heatable zones for the dicharge of distillate and residue.
