About Solvent Purification Systems
SPBT 1 Benchtop Solvent Purification System
Our SPBT 1 bench top solvent purifier is a compact yet complete system for safely drying solvents and was specifically designed to fit on a bench top or under a fume hood.
SP 1 Standalone Solvent Purification System
SP 1 standalone solvent purifier is a complete system built from the highest quality components available and has the capacity to handle up to seven (7) different solvents. The system delivers pure anhydrous solvent using a safe and reliable process. No more dangerous solvent stills.
Advanced Construction and SafetyFeaturing durable stainless steel 304 housing and anodized aluminum panels, this system is engineered for longevity in active laboratory settings. The explosion-proof design, integrated fire suppression port, and over-pressure protection guarantee user safety during operation. Heavy-duty castors make repositioning convenient, and the acrylic inspection window allows visual monitoring of column status.
Versatile Solvent PurificationThe system supports up to six purification columns that are easily replaceable and compatible with a wide array of solvents, including THF, DCM, Toluene, Hexane, and Acetonitrile. Purification media efficiently remove water and oxygen impurities, achieving output purities of less than 10 ppm. Users can tailor their setup based on workflow requirements and solvent choices.
User-Friendly Control and MaintenanceOperation is simplified with both manual and automatic modes, while digital LED status indicators provide real-time feedback. A built-in bypass function allows for rapid solvent selection and system purging. Maintenance is streamlined with modular columns and integrated waste bottle connections for safe disposal of residues. Optional PLC interfaces further enhance automation and remote monitoring.
FAQ's of Solvent Purification Systems:
Q: How does the Solvent Purification System ensure high purity of solvents?
A: The system uses highly activated alumina/sieves in its modular columns to efficiently remove water and oxygen. This process reduces contaminants to less than 10 ppm, meeting the stringent requirements of sensitive laboratory applications.
Q: What safety features are included to protect users during operation?
A: Safety is maximized with over-pressure protection, fire suppression port, automatic shutoff, and a robust stainless steel housing. Additionally, safety interlocks and explosion-proof design further minimize risks associated with purified solvent handling.
Q: When should the column media be replaced in the system?
A: Column media should be replaced periodically or when digital status indicators show a decline in purification efficiency. The modular design makes replacing columns straightforward, ensuring consistent solvent purity.
Q: Where can this solvent purification system be installed?
A: Its floor-standing design with heavy-duty castors allows flexible placement in laboratories, research institutions, and industrial environments across the United States. It is best situated in well-ventilated areas with compatible power and gas supplies.
Q: What solvents are compatible with this purification system?
A: The system is compatible with common laboratory solvents, including THF, DCM, Toluene, Hexane, and Acetonitrile. Customization options enable use with additional solvents as needed.
Q: How is waste liquid managed in the purification process?
A: Waste liquid from purification is safely contained via an integrated waste bottle connection, preventing contamination and promoting safe disposal in compliance with laboratory protocols.
Q: What are the main benefits of using this system in a laboratory setting?
A: Key benefits include reliable and rapid solvent dispensing, modular configuration for up to six solvent lines, high purity output, robust safety measures, and user-friendly automated operation. This system enhances workflow efficiency and maintains consistent solvent quality for advanced research.
