PAC OptiDist™ is the State-of-the-Art Optimal Solution for performing atmospheric distillation offering highest precision and ease of use ever seen. The new distillation analyzer combines eighty years experience of the companies Walter Herzog and ISL in designing and manufacturing automatic distillation equipment.

TOP VALUE OFFERING IN THE MARKETPLACE FOR ASTM D86, EN ISO 3405 & IP 123 TESTING
Eighty years combined experience of the companies Walter Herzog and ISL in designing and manufacturing automatic distillation equipment, PAC developed the most revolutionary automated distillation analyzer ever built.

Easy to Use, One Button Straightforward Operation
Only the OptiDist™ enables truly “one button” straightforward operation. The easy to use distillation analyzer with advanced MMI features contributes to a trouble-free operation requiring less operator expertise. Without preliminary trials and manual adjustment the operator selects the test method and starts the distillation by just pressing the Start button.

Superior Precision From the First Run
The OptiDist™ automatically sets the optimal distillation conditions for any sample through the unique heating optimizer technology. It delivers up to 2 times better precision for all common distillation samples. No more precious time loss for repeating tests, you get perfect results from the first run even for “unknown” samples!

Enhanced Instrument Safety Features
The optimizer technology assures perfect repeatability of distillation conditions without a compromise on safety. The optimized heating protects flask material from critical overheating, improves flask life-time and prevents from potential fire. The operator also benefits from the environmental-friendly design by the drastically reduced VOC emission.

Unparalleled Versatility
The versatile design enables multi-methods and non-standard capability and can easily be adapted for different applications. The testing and results are in full compliance with all distillation methods. Either standalone or networked, you can start any product group without unit reconditioning and have a flexible and customized test report with enhanced communication features to LIMS, any printer or a centralized database on a PC.

Laboratory Savings
Using the small OptiDist™ foot print allows you to save expensive laboratory space and reduce installation, operational and maintenance costs.

Since no one knows what the future will bring, the HDV 632 doesn't limit your vacuum distillation testing options to the current test method. Choose ASTM D 1160 or define and save your own custom programs. Naturally, you can add, delete and revise custom tests as your products and test needs evolve.

The HDV 632 controls temperature, distillation rate, and pressure with microprocessor precision. Volume measurements are made with digital accuracy, and test program selection is a simple "point and click" operation. Choose from an extensive library of built-in programs or your own predefined tests.

The HDV 632 incorporates everything needed for fully automated distillation testing, yet used only 0.33 square meters (3.25 ft²) of bench space. In fact, it even features two built-in refrigeration systems --  one for the cold trap, plus a heater/cooler for the condenser bath -- so you don't even have to run hoses to an external water supply or chiller system.
