Solvent distillation plant COMPACT

The explosion-protected solvent distillation unit COMPACT is the smallest solvent distillation unit from OFRU, which works with automatic filling. The plant is designed for approx. 60-400 l/day and consists of a thermal oil heated horizontal distillation vessel made of stainless steel, in which the contaminated solvent is treated. The solvent distillation unit COMPACT operates fully automatically and fills automatically and continuously by means of an integrated double diaphragm pump or the vacuum option. The solvent distillation unit is filled at regular intervals from a storage tank / dirt drum. A level controller keeps the level continuously constant in the distillation vessel and enables almost unattended operation, if necessary in 24-hour operation. Display units in the front panel provide information on the boiling/steam temperature of the solvent, the process pressure in the solvent distillation unit vessel and the nominal/actual values of the heating. The electrical control system monitors all safety-relevant parameters and switches the plant off automatically in the event of a fault. For example, the automatic filling system detects when the dirty barrel is empty. The SIEMENS control system then automatically switches over to "sump distillation" and thickens the distillation residues to a specified viscosity (adjustable by timer). The solvent distillation unit then stops automatically and is ready for emptying via the large boiler door. The solvent distillation units COMPACT is equipped with an ATEX-tested Ex switch cabinet and contains high-quality electrical components. Operation is extremely user-friendly and safe.
