Mechanical valve for the use with Apollo Vacuum Controller or SVG-3
This KF25 elbow valve works by throttling the pressure between the vacuum pump and the process to control the vacuum level or to isolate the vacuum pump | Enables vacuum pressure control using a solenoid valve for throttling pump suction
- Control range: 10 millitorr to 6 Torr
- Measurement range: 1 millitorr to 760 Torr
- Range with accuracy: 10 millitorr to 6 Torr
- Benefits of throttle control: With the KF25 1″ orifice you get better and faster throughput | ideal for processing high volumes | Extends life of pump by enabling pump to run closer to it’s base pressure
- Vacuum control—Regulate the vacuum level between the vacuum pump and the chamber or process. It creates a pressure drop between the two, thereby allowing the process to operate at a set pressure while the pumps’ pressure varies based on loading. Helps prolong the life of your vacuum pump!
- Vacuum controller applications: Vacuum Ovens, Vacuum Furnaces, Vacuum Bagging or Composites
- Botanical processing: Rotary Evaporation, Short Path Distillation (1 Head Kit), Extractions
- Use case example— To maintain specific pressure levels in a vacuum oven at about 2 Torr to avoid removing target terpenes and only removing water
