Vacuum

  • The Apollo Vacuum Controller is an advanced scientific laboratory vacuum controller, display, digital readout, and vacuum live reading analysis device. (Pictured here shows location of the display and first 536 sensor {above}. Second picture shows location of second 536 sensor off the vacuum pump line {below}) This controller not only shows real time data for your laboratory process, it can also be used as a live pump down curve testing device for vacuum pumps in your lab. From seeing guaranteed accurate readings in your short path system to identifying the health of your pump, the Apollo is the most advanced tool in your arsenal when it comes to vacuum control with accuracy and quality second to none. All Summit hardware is now compatible with the new free ATHENA software. Here is a Youtube to help install. Do you have a rotary evaporator or falling film that needs full vacuum control? Take a look at the Proportional Vacuum Controller.   Standard options:
    • The first two pre-installed board locations have two 536 cleanable sensors (KF25), factory calibrated to a NIST certified test bench on each device prior to shipping. Usually one sensor is attached to the laminar portion of a short path to tell you what is going on in the system, and the second is attached to the pump to tell you the health and performance of the pump array in use.
    • A third board location is pre-installed and pre-calibrated for the use of a UHVP sensor (ultra high vacuum pressure) which is an option to be added-on if the user wants to use a third pump bay accessory like a diffusion pump or turbo pump etc. without any further needed upgrades to the Apollo itself.
    • A fourth board location is pre-installed for phantom power. There are two phantom power ports used to control the optional added-on feature on external control valves.  Each are independently controlled by the Apollo core software built in. With no needed upgrades to the Apollo itself.
    • A fifth board location is pre-installed with sweep valve controlling hardware.
    This device comes with the control box (brain), the digital chemical duty touch screen, two 536 sensors and all necessary device cables and cords. (everything in last picture) Spec Sheet Button Upgrades are:
    • Inert gas sweep valve kit and pressure regulator for turbo charging system speeds in various processes.
    • Up to two phantom powered Edwards bellow valves for vacuum valve control of wet or dry vacuum operation.
    • UHVP Sensor for additional diffusion or turbo control.
    Custom configurations allow the Apollo to be configured directly from summit with up to four sensors, and four control valves, both proportional and on/off style. Please inquire if you want your Apollo Vacuum Controller you've purchased expanded and/or modified.
  • Micro-controllable inert gas valve that installs directly to your boiling flask. Sweep valve connects to your calibrated sweep gas regulator. These components give you even more control with the Apollo Vacuum Controller. Complete control at your fingertips! Included:
    • KF16 (PTFE non-expanding material) to 24/40 fitting
    • KF16 O-ring
    • KF16 Clamp
    • Extended tube sensor with threading
    • Wiring
  • The Apollo Proportional Vacuum Controller is an advanced scientific laboratory vacuum controller, display, digital readout, and vacuum live reading analysis device. This version of the Apollo can service up to FOUR REMOTE vacuum sensors of any kind with up to FOUR REMOTE vacuum valves that are controlled by the Digi-Vac dinamo proportional live CFM control valve. KF25 flanges, barbed breather valve. This device is essential for high speed rotary evaporation control and crucial for controlling and even increasing recovery rates on falling film evaporation machines. Those might be the top two, but the possibilities are rising with new tech that have KF25 fitment. The device has a continuous CFM open-close valve that never actually stops moving. Typically it will not close but the effect is reached with the ability to increase or decrease CFM size allowing to maintain vacuum select point control. If the set point comes up, it will close the valve. If the set point goes down it will open the valve. Typically very minute movements inside make a huge performance difference and increase in vacuum pump performance allowing continual cfm-to-micron control. This Apollo controller can be expanded but comes with ONE EXTERNAL COUPLED device standard. This is an Apollo brain unit with a chemical duty touch screen, with remote valve/sensor. Standard options are as follows:
    • The first board location is equipped by summit with one sensor designed for aggressive solvent use and one proportional valve (dinamo valve).
    Further up-gradable options are as follows:
    • Three more slots are available to accept up to three more sensors and three more valves.
    • The additional optional upgrade is only several hundred dollars for each additional proportional valve control added-on.  any length cable can be used, please inform us for a specialty need with longer cables than what is supplied.

  • Apiezon H

    $197.75
    25g Apiezon H Grease is a silicone-free high vacuum grease perfectly suited for use at high temperatures in both scientific and industrial applications. Thanks to its 'stiction' power Apiezon H Grease is ideal for use with laboratory glassware. Its high thermal conductivity makes it the perfect vacuum grease in situations where heat sink media requires adhesion. Exhibits a vapour pressure of 1.7 x 10-9 Torr at 20°C and upper operating temp of 240°C
    Why Use Apiezon H Grease?
    • performs well under a wide range of temperatures, from -10 to +240°C, and retains its optimum consistency at temperatures between +10 and +110°C
    • rather than melting, actually becomes stiffer as temperature increases and therefore is not recommended for highly stressed bearings
    • has excellent heat transfer properties
    • conducts heat away from the site of operation, reducing the danger of overheating and damaging heat-sensitive components
    • exhibits good 'stiction' or sticking power
    • has powerful 'gettering' action, meaning it absorbs potentially harmful grease and chemical impurities on metal and glass surfaces
    • is easy to clean and remove as it is soluble in hydrocarbon solvents
  • Ultra high vacuum grease. 100g Apiezon 501 is a chemically inert, high temperature and extreme pressure lubricant. With an upper operating temperature of 250°C and vapour pressure of 1.3 x 10-12 at 25°C, it is robust, versatile and can be used for sealing and lubricating under the most extreme operating conditions. This includes environments where aggressive chemicals and strong oxidizing agents are regularly used. sds
