Ventilated Fume Hood for Distillation and Extraction Equipment
Floor mounted fume hoods (commonly called walk-in fume hoods) are a type of enclosed ventilation system. They are designed to provide protection to the operator, against exposure to volatile and toxic materials, flame retardant chemicals, carcinogens, or substances that are particularly dangerous.
Lab fume hoods are used in many applications to protect personnel and the environment from harmful chemicals, fumes or gases. CFI offers a variety of explosion-proof hood configurations and features to suit applications ranging from educational to industrial for your cannabis laboratory equipment needs. Here are some of the components of walk-in fume hoods:
- The cabin where the gases are collected
- A work surface, usually epoxy resin or phenolic resin
- Integral or remote blower
- Filer or exhaust duct
Laboratory Freeze Dryer for Preserving Plant Essences
CFI offers a variety of freeze-drying equipment to provide an efficient process for you. Laboratory freeze dryers speed up the process of drying exponentially. They also remove a lot more moisture than traditional drying and retain more of your plants’ natural essences.
Here are a few premium qualities of FreeZone Freeze Dryers:
- High capacity
- Easy to use
- Smart alerts about the status of your process.
- Touchscreen operation system
The FreeZone Freeze Dryers from Labconco quickly lyophilize plant extracts. Each model provides real-time feedback to lab personnel and alerts users when freeze-drying is complete.
Mobile models are available for additional flexibility, and benchtop models are available if a smaller footprint is required. The unit operates using a vacuum pump to lower the pressure around the sample. As gases are being removed from the sample, a collector condenses them. Depending on the unit selected, up to 4 liters of water can be removed in 24 hours. Learn more about selecting freeze dryers for cannabis labs.
Water Purifiers for Solventless Extraction
WaterPro Water Purifier deliver high-quality reverse osmosis purified water. Reverse osmosis is the ideal technique in laboratories for various applications such as reagent preparation. Solventless ice water extraction requires high-quality extraction equipment to achieve the purest end product. The reverse osmosis filter will help produce laboratory-grade water in the purest form.
Cold Trap for Vacuum Pump
A cold trap for a vacuum pump is a device that condenses all vapors, except the permanent gases, into a liquid or solid. The cold tap protects the vacuum from harmful vapors by capturing vaporized solvents and contaminants when you’re creating concentrates. They can be used in other lab applications:
- Freeze-drying
- Desiccation
In less than 15 minutes, CentriVap Cold Traps reaches -55°C. As the collector coil reaches -40°C operating temperature, the ready indicator illuminates. A clear canister is attached to the cold trap’s left side and can accommodate a variety of trap inserts. Acids, moisture, radio chemicals, and solvents are all removed by these trap inserts, reducing the amount of pollutants released into the atmosphere. Below are some of the qualities of the Centrivap Cold Traps:
- Brushed, Stainless Steel and Powder-Coated Steel Exterior
- Illuminated Temperature Graph with Endpoint Indication
- HCFC-Free Refrigerant System
- Two 1/3 hp Compressors
- 4-liter, Stainless Steel Collector
- Acrylic or Stainless Steel Lid (with 2 Quick-Disconnect fittings for connection to a CentriVap Concentrator)
- Stainless Steel Drain Port (with corrosion-resistant, nylon valve)
