Refrigerated vacuum cold trap for laboratory vapors
In laboratory environments, safeguarding vacuum pumps from harmful vapors is essential for maintaining operational efficiency and equipment longevity. High costs and hazards associated with dry ice and liquid nitrogen make an alternative solution necessary for chemical vapor deposition, vacuum oven integration, and gas stream dehydration.
Trap and condense harmful vapors efficiently.
The FTS Vapor Trap from Scientific Products offers an effective solution for trapping condensable vapors with a stainless-steel Dewar and mechanically refrigerated walls. Eliminating the need for expendable refrigerants, this tool reduces operating costs and hazards linked to dry ice and liquid nitrogen. Available in 2-, 4-, and 8-liter configurations, it supports vacuum pumps with flow rates up to 250 liters/minute. The vapor trap operates at ultra-low temperatures of -50°C or -90°C, efficiently condensing vapors with freezing points higher than its operating temperature. Features such as compact benchtop design and digital temperature readout with one-touch operation make it a user-friendly addition to any laboratory setup.
Benefits
- Reduces operating costs by eliminating expendable refrigerants
