Glass Oven B-585 5 Operation 5.4.5 Working procedure for a simple distillation The liquid to be distilled is placed in the vertical glass tube with having only a single ground-glass joint using a pipette. The glass tube can be filled up to the „max“ mark. The desired number of glass balls are connected to each other and secured against unwanted release with the clips.
5 Operation Glass Oven B-585 5.4.8 Working procedure for rotation drying The vapor duct used for the ball tube distillation must be remo- ved and the vapour duct for rotation drying installed in order to do rotation drying. See Chapter 5.2.3 for information on how to convert the device.
If the samples is in frozen condition in the freeze drying tube, the B-585 is evacuated. The vacuum which can be chosen depends upon the freezing point of the product. Set a va- cuum pressure, which ensures a product temperature 10 degrees below the melting point during the drying process.
