AUTOVAP 30 - SOLVENT RECOVERY SYSTEM

UP TO 45 US GAL/HR*
(170 liters) per hour recovery The AV30 adds full automation Allen Bradley system as well as a more compact package over the AV15. It is the most efficient solvent recovery system on the market when comparing throughput to footprint. 13 points of data measurement combined with built in fail safes, alarms, data logging, and remote access makes the AV30 stand alone as the industry leader with a guaranteed 99% recovery rate and up to 45 US Gal/hr. The AutoVap30 has a residence time of less than 3 minutes, is C1D2 Compliant, Peer Engineer Reviewed, uses 3-A sanitary components, as well as a UL 508B built PLC.

AUTOVAP 100 - SOLVENT RECOVERY SYSTEM

UP TO 100 US GAL/HR*
(378 liters) per hour recovery An industrial scale step up from previous generations, the AutoVap 100 adds heat recovery in the form a Patent Pending condensing preheating system. Utilizing hot solvent vapor to preheat the feed liquid cuts down on heating costs, and subsequently utilizes cold feed solution (any temperature from 30C down to -60C) to condense the hot solvent vapor, reducing the load on your cooling system. The combined savings is roughly 84,000 BTUs!Built with ASME listed, domestically sourced components the AutoVap 100 can also be upgraded to BPE SF1 or even SF4 finish standards for the most strict GMP operational environments such as pharmaceutical industries.

EVO 6 LPD-SA LONG PATH STAND ALONE

Base Module Decarboxylation, Solvent Stripping, and Terpene Removal

Achieve the ultimate separation with a Long Path Evaporator. Many compounds share properties that make separation difficult, such as terpenes or solvent vapor that act as a carrier. Increasing the vapor path will limit crossover in the de-volatilization stage, increasing yields and removal efficiency. Further processing of heavier compounds is best carried out in a Short Path Evaporator, where the distance of the vapor is minimal, and deep vacuum is applied for critical molecular separation and higher purities. Start with a Stand-Alone unit and built your ideal distillation unit from there. We can customize the system to distill just about anything.

EVO 6 LPD-AO LONG PATH ADD ON

Add-On Module, Additional Terpene/Solvent Removal
The long path add on is key if you are decarboxylating or stripping solvents in the first pass. An additional long path stage will minimize odor content, and guarantee a product fit for any end-formulation. It can even be used for post-refining terpenes and flavor molecules for connoisseur grade results.

EVO 6 SPD-SA SHORT PATH STANDALONE

Base Modular, Processing of Already De-volatized Material

The EVO 6 SPD-SA is a solution for processing already devolatized material. Whether it’s re-distilling an inferior product, capturing residues from a waste stream, or simply distillating a product with low VOC content, the stand alone unit is a perfect fit for any lab.

EVO 6 SPD-AO SHORT PATH ADD ON

Add-On Unit, Main Body Distillation, Residue Removal
The SPD add on module pairs with a base unit to add main-body distillation of heat-sensitive compounds. Multiple units can be tied together for subsequent refining and capturing any residuals in the waste stream. Up to six units can be tied together to create the ultimate processing line and perfect your product formulations while minimizing waste product and lost revenue due to inefficiencies.

EVO SERIES STANDARD FEATURES

LOW RESIDENCE TIME

Less Than 3 Minutes. Minimal residence time is key for reducing degradation at high temperatures.

EXPLOSION PROOF OPTIONAL

Hazloc Control System and Motors. Engineered to C1D2 specifications and signed off by a UL508B panel shop.

CONTROL PANEL
