The instrument consists of a
base and stand assembly, mounted in a shallow bath. The entire instrument
rotates so that all samples are accessible from the front. Round flasks sit on
a cover disk and are heated by hot water and steam. Solvents with boiling
points up to 65° C can be handled. For maximum beat transfer, jar shaped
flasks can be immersed directly into the bath water. An optional vacuum
manifold permits solvents with boiling points up to 90° C to be processed.
The condenser water supply includes a flow meter, rigid supply tube,
rotating inlet/drain port, parallel supply/return manifolds and a flexible
return tube. Quick disconnect fittings are used on the manifolds. The system
can be connected to a bench cold-water tap. A refrigerated water chiller is
recommended as an accessory for improved control of condenser temperature and
water conservation.
The 4.5-inch deep, stainless steel water bath is
thermostatically controlled and will accurately maintain water temperature from
30° to 100° C. It is equipped with a water level device, a high
temperature limit switch and a GFCI electrical plug for safety. An
intrinsically safe, purged case is available as an option. The bath is UL/CUL
approved for laboratory use. |
