Designed for process scientists on a budget who cannot sacrifice quality, the EcoChyll® X5 is an extremely efficient alternative to all existing evaporative technologies. Compared to 20 L rotary evaporators from major manufacturers, the EcoChyll X5 provides over twice the capacity at a substantially lower cost. The patented direct cooling technology, direct heat, and stirred evaporation flask all contribute to dramatically lower energy consumption, without requiring a drop of glycol or other coolant fluid, significantly reducing your operating costs while increasing your recovery rates.
With a true 22 L capacity and a small footprint, it is a premium compromise between cost and convenience. Our cost-competitive evaporator comes as a turn-key solution for solvent recovery and decarboxylation. The EcoChyll® X5 automates the vapor cooling process to free-up user time for other operations, while reducing run time due to faster evaporation rates and significantly shorter start-up time. This method is now the preferred solution for evaporation in a wide range of botanical extraction applications
The EcoChyll X5 is proudly built in the United States with meticulous attention to quality.
Cost-Efficient Evaporation Equipment from Ecodyst
Ecodyst is the world’s first rotary evaporator manufacturer to use metallic condensers in evaporation and decarboxylation processes. Our disruptive approach has set a new standard of cost-efficiency and results reliability in emerging markets, like the hemp industry. The EcoChyll® evaporators are the leaders in efficiency, environmental friendliness, speed, and capacity. Researchers in process chemistry, cannabis extraction, and other fields are using the EcoChyll X5 to achieve more with less.

Features
- Recovers all residual solvents (below 500ppm)
- Designed to handle an extremely wide range of solvents, including water and all common solvents used in the cannabis and hemp industries .
- No need to move glassware: The stationary evaporation flask is filled with a siphon feed valve and emptied with a drain valve for uninterrupted operation.
- Can be incorporated in-line with botanical extraction or winterization systems and fully automated.
- Digital interfaces and data monitoring for stirring rod, vacuum pump, chiller, and heating mantle.
- Patented EcoChyll condensation unit reaches -40°C on the coils in under one minute.
- Spacious evaporation flask prevents “bumping” of solution into condensation unit.
- Single user operation with minimal interference required.
- Capable of evaporating ethanol at low temperatures (38C).
- Extremely energy efficient.
- Safety features for automatic shutdown.

Training and Service
We are committed to the highest levels of service before, during, and after a sale.
We are available at normal business hours in Eastern Standard Time to help diagnose, solve, and if necessary, overnight replacement parts to you. Our first priority is that you never experience any downtime.
Modular Upgrade Program
Ecodyst has a modular upgrade program to help groups that plan to scale larger in the future.
For example, the X7 EcoChyll condensation unit can be paired with the 22, 50, 72, and 100 liter evaporation units.
If you were to purchase a 22L EcoChyll X7 and later wished to double your processing capacity, you could purchase only a 50 liter evaporation unit to pair with the X7 EcoChyll.
This amounts to a significant savings (versus purchasing a new 22L EcoChyll X5 turnkey system) while doubling your processing power.
You could also upgrade the 22L to a 72L or 100L system.
