Hydrocarbon solvent distillation unit for extractors
Ensure high purity levels in your extraction process by integrating a distillation unit that refines solvents, reduces contamination, and boosts operational efficiency with continuous purification cycles.

Purifies Solvents for Hydrocarbon Extraction
The Hydrocarbon Distillation Unit (HDU) from Precision Extraction Solutions is a stand-alone system engineered for continuous solvent purification in cannabis extraction processes. Positioned between the source solvent tank and the extractor, it ensures only the cleanest butane, propane, and isobutane enter the extraction stage, preventing equipment contamination. Designed for versatility, the HDU integrates seamlessly with both Precision’s systems, such as the PX1, X10, X40, PX5, PX10, and PX30, and other industry-standard hydrocarbon extraction setups. The unit allows continuous refilling during operation, minimizing downtime and increasing daily extraction cycles by up to five times. With dimensions of 34.5” L x 29.1” W x 64.8” H and a weight of 151 lb, it provides a compact yet robust solution supported by Technical Report certification from Pressure Safety Inspectors, meeting IFC and NFPA Fire Code standards across all U.S. states. For ease of integration and compliance, Precision offers custom evaluations, ensuring the HDU meets your specific extraction needs while providing training and installation support to maximize operational efficiency.
