Purifying Flavors, Fragrances, Natural Products, and Essential Oils (5 ml to 100 ml)
The 800 fractional distillation system is ideal for purifying flavors, fragrances, natural products and essential oils in the 5ml to 100ml range.
Key features include:
High purity
The 30 theoretical plate fractional distillation column can product high purity distillates. For flavors, fragrances, natural products and essential oils, even small increases in purity can translate to large increases in value.
Low pressure drop
The spinning band distillation column has less than 0.5 milliliters remaining behind in the column after the distillation is complete. This means that the smallest amount of valuable material possible is lost in the purification process.
Low "hold up"
The spinning band distillation column has less than 1.5 milliliters remaining behind in the column after the distillation is complete. This means that the smallest amount of valuable material possible is lost in the purification process.
Automation
The 800 fractional distillation system can be fully automated. Once the desired parameters are programmed, the distillation proceeds without any operator intervention, freeing up valuable operator time to perform other important work.
The 800 spinning band fractional distillation system features:
- All Glass and Teflon Components
- 30 Theoretical Plate Distillation Column (maximum at atmosphere)
- 10, 15, 25 ml boiler capacities
- Automatic and Manually Operated Fractional Distillation Systems
This micro spinning band distillation system is a very powerful tool for separating close boiling components. O-ring seals allow joints to be "grease free". Vacuum distillations can be carried out to as low as 0.1 mm Hg. Special glassware allows receivers to be changed without interrupting the vacuum regulation.

Automation and Accessories
All our fractional distillation equipment is available in fully automatic or manually operated models. Manually operated fractional distillation systems are inexpensive and simple to operate. Automatic models are microprocessor controlled. All the fractional distillation functions are fully automated to make the fractional distillation process easy and efficient from beginning to end.
M690 Microprocessor Controller
The microprocessor minimizes the amount of operator time required for each fractional distillation. Call up your stored program from one of 19 available memory locations and let the microprocessor perform the distillation. Each program can store up to eight distillation fractions. Each fraction has programmable open and close temperature cut points, heat rates, and equilibration times. Programmable shut down at the end of the distillation run. The microprocessor allows easy editing of each of the parameters while the distillation is in progress.
VAC-1000 Vacuum Regulation System
Materials that have very high boiling points or are subject to thermal degradation should be distilled at reduced pressures. The VAC-1000 is a complete, stand alone vacuum system that can provide regulated vacuum to any distillation system. It features a 5 decade pressure sensor, proportional control valve, vacuum manifold/trap, 2 stage mechanical pump, all mounted on a roll around cart for easy maneuverability in the laboratory. The VAC-1000 can be used with automated or manually operated columns.
Fraction Collectors
Five place fraction collectors are available. Receiver sizes are 2 ml. The fraction collector is a convenient way to collect fractions without having to change receivers.
