Description
1 lb Apollo Dewaxing Closed Loop Extractor
The 1 lb Apollo Dewaxing closed loop is a great introductory unit for small scale production. The 1 lb closed loop hydrocarbon extraction system performs botanical extraction within a sealed, vacuumed system. Utilizing a top-fill input, solvent washes through the material column, collecting oils as it passes over the material. Oil bearing solvent is collected in the collection base under the material column. Once collected, solvent is distilled and recovered, leaving the oils in the collection base. This is a passive unit that utilizes pressure differences created by manipulating temperature to move solvent.
Features:
• Up to 1 lb material capacity
• Solvent reclamation
• Sleeved column for removal of plant waxes
• Splatter platter collection base for easy extract removal
• Sight glasses on collection base
• 100 micron filtration built into gasket
Benefits:
• Save money with solvent reclamation
• Fast extraction and recovery speed
• Dewaxing column yields higher quality extract
Includes:
• 6” x 12” collection base
• #30 LP tank
• 3” x 34” material column
• Stainless steel braided PTFE hoses
• Buna-N tri-clamp gaskets
• Single pin clamps
