Description

Since its introduction in 2018, the Short Path Distillation Head Bertha 100 has set a new industry standard for distillation performance. Now in 2023, after six generations of refinement, the Bertha 100 has reached its peak form, offering unmatched efficiency and vapor fractionation for small-scale and pilot distillation operations.

This cutting-edge distillation head is equipped with a 45/50 thermoport, 34/45 discharge port, and a 100mm bore that attaches securely to boiling flasks using a robust o-ring and clamp. Designed for optimal thermal isolation and vapor refinement, the Bertha 100’s structure ensures high yields and quality.

Advanced Dual-Stage Fractionation Column

The Bertha 100 features an extremely high vapor fractionation column that is engineered to maximize heat retention and fractionation efficiency. Starting at the flask, the column retains heat, preventing condensation from occurring prematurely.

  • The first chamber serves as a rough fractionation area, designed to prevent any lower rejection condensates from moving upwards.
  • The middle section provides secondary vapor refinement, ensuring that only the highest-purity vapors rise through the system.
  • The upper third section acts as a patented fraction collector, marking a breakthrough in distillation head technology. This is the first-ever dual-stage fractionation column that eliminates the need for Vigruex columns (Vigs) through the use of a baffled section extending into the boiling flask.

Performance and Output

The Bertha 100 offers exceptional throughput, with the ability to process 2-4 liters per hour on the first pass, and up to 6 liters per hour with the use of upgraded chilling and vacuum accessories. This high-efficiency output ensures that your distillate is ready for crystallization upon completion of the process.

Requirements and Compatibility

To fully optimize the performance of the Bertha 100, a powerful vacuum system is required. Recommended setups include:

  • Sogevac + Dual E2M30
  • Sogevac + E80
  • Sogevac + E80 + Diffusion Array

Additionally, using the Apollo Vacuum Controller with inert gas sweeping can further improve stock speed and lower operating temperatures, boosting overall efficiency.

This distillation head is compatible exclusively with Summit's MPD boiling flasks, including:

  • Boiling Flask-5L-3N-100
  • Boiling Flask-12L-3N-100
  • Boiling Flask-22L-3N-100

Included Components

  • High Temp PTFE GL18 (2)
  • Stopper Well 45
  • Key Well 45
  • O-Ring PTFE 100mm
  • Flange Clamp 100mm

These components ensure the integrity and durability of your distillation setup, allowing for a secure and high-performance system.

Built for Durability and Safety

Summit uses the highest quality glass blanks, thicker and more durable than industry standards, to guarantee the longevity and reliability of the Bertha 100. Manufactured entirely in the USA, this distillation head is crafted for efficiency, performance, and safety.

For the best results, Summit recommends operating all glassware within a ventilated fume hood equipped with blast shields to prevent injury in case of glass fatigue or failure. Summit is not liable for any damages or material loss resulting from improper use or hardware failure.

Recommended Safety Protocol

Always operate this unit in a legal and licensed facility where safety is prioritized. Summit ensures the highest quality and safety standards for all glassware, but it is up to the user to follow recommended safety practices and create a secure working environment.
