Short Path Distillation Head HB1 Halo 150

The Short Path Distillation Head HB1 Halo 150 is part of Summit Research's groundbreaking Halo series, which builds upon the original fraction collector technology. This innovative distillation head introduces Halo technology, offering liquid temperature modulation at the top of the head. With this feature, users can now precisely dial in temperature at a critical stage of the distillation process, achieving accuracy and control previously unattainable in short path distillations. This technological advancement ensures higher efficiency and purity for larger-scale distillations.

Halo Technology: Temperature Modulation for Precision Distillation

At the heart of the HB1 Halo 150 is Halo technology, which allows for precise temperature modulation at the top of the head. This innovative approach ensures more accurate fraction separation, enabling users to fine-tune temperatures at a critical point during the distillation process. By controlling temperature with this level of precision, the distillation process is smoother, faster, and more efficient, leading to enhanced purity in the final product.

Key Features of Halo Technology:

• Temperature Control at the Top of the Head: Provides better control over distillation temperatures for increased efficiency.
• Enhanced Fraction Separation: Optimized for high-performance, large-scale distillations, ensuring only desired components pass through.

Included Components

The HB1 Halo 150 comes fully equipped with all the necessary components for seamless operation:

• 150 mm Clamp – Ensures a secure attachment to boiling flasks, maintaining stability during distillation.
• O-Ring – Provides an airtight seal, preventing leaks during the process.
• PTFE GL18s (4) – High-temperature-resistant glass components for heat management in sensitive distillations.
• 34/45 Discharge Port with Built-in Key – Facilitates smooth liquid transfer, enhancing operational efficiency.

Boiling Flask Compatibility

The HB1 Halo 150 is designed to work exclusively with the following Summit flanged boiling flasks:

• Boiling Flask-22L-3N-150 mm
• Boiling Flask-50L-3N-150 mm

These boiling flasks are custom-built to fit the Halo 150 head, ensuring an integrated system designed for high-performance, large-scale distillations.

Durability and Quality: Schott Glass Construction

Summit Research uses only the highest quality Schott glass, known for its exceptional thickness and durability, in the construction of the HB1 Halo 150. Manufactured in the USA, this glass exceeds industry standards, ensuring long-lasting use even under the most demanding distillation conditions. Summit’s glassware is crafted specifically to support efficient and reliable short path distillations, providing the durability and quality labs need to optimize their operations.

Safety and Usage Recommendations

Summit Research strongly advises operating the HB1 Halo 150 within a ventilated fume hood with proper blast shields to protect against potential glass fatigue or failure. Although Summit’s glassware is built to withstand high-intensity use, proper safety measures must always be in place.

Summit is not liable for any damage or equipment failure due to improper use. It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that their laboratory operates in a licensed and legal environment, following all safety guidelines and protocols.
