WATER STILLS

Water Stills 

Water stills are crucial equipment for obtaining pure and distilled water in scientific environments. At Pobel, we offer a range of distillers designed to meet the needs of the laboratory.

What are Water Stills?

Laboratory water stills s are devices used to purify water through the process of distillation. This process involves heating water until it becomes steam and then condensing it back into liquid form, removing impurities and contaminants. These devices are essential for producing high purity water needed in numerous scientific procedures and experiments.

At Pobel, we have a wide range of both glass and metal distillers with different levels of automation: from semi-automatic to fully automatic distillers.

What are laboratory water stills for? Uses of Water stills

Water stills have many essential uses:

• Solution preparation: used to obtain pure water needed to prepare precise chemical solutions.
• Equipment cleaning: distilled water is crucial for cleaning laboratory instruments to avoid contamination.
• Analysis and experiments: provide water free of contaminants that could interfere with experiments and analysis.
• Reagent production: necessary for the production of reagents that require high quality water.

Types of Pobel Water Stills

700 Series - Water stills  models 710 and 720 - 4 litres/hour

• Series of semi-automatic and continuous production distillers. High quality distillation with high purity results, free of metal ions and pyrogenic substances. 

• Safety mechanism which switches off the heating element when the cooling water flow rate decreases and switches on again when the cooling water flow rate increases. 

• Glass parts made of borosilicate glass 3.3, and heating element protected by a quartz sheath. Small dimensions for easy handling and cleaning, with a wall mounting bracket.

• While the 710 model has a vertical coolant, the 720 model has a horizontal coolant with a slightly larger cooling surface. As the coolant is horizontal, it is somewhat smaller than the 710 model.

Water Still model 804 - 4 litres/hour

• Semi-automatic table-top distiller with vertical design and reduced volume.

• Borosilicate glass 3.3 parts and metal heating elements. High distillation quality with high purity and practically free of metal ions, salts, dissolved gases and pyrogenic substances.

• Safety mechanism that switches off the heating element when the cooling water flow rate decreases and switches on again when the cooling water flow rate decreases. It has a level switch as protection against low water level in the boiler, to avoid high temperatures that could be caused without heat dissipation in the water.

811 Series - Water Still model 811811 - 9 litres/hour

• Automatic table-top distiller with vertical design.

• Borosilicate glass 3.3 parts and metal heating elements. High quality distillation with high purity results, practically free of metal ions, salts, dissolved gases and pyrogenic substances.

• Safety mechanism that switches off the heating elements when the cooling water flow rate decreases and switches on again when the cooling water flow rate increases. It has a level switch as protection against low water level in the boiler, to avoid high temperatures that could be caused without heat dissipation in the water.

• This model incorporates a filling probe which acts as a water level sensor when placed in an external water tank, automatically controlling the filling of the tank.

811 Series – Water Still model 811813 - 12 litres/hour

This model is the three-phase version of model 811811, being able to achieve a higher production of water per hour (around 12 litres/hour).

DESA Series - Water Still model DESA - Available in 4, 8 and 12 litres/hour

• Series of high quality semi-automatic and continuous production distillers with a safety mechanism that disconnects the heating elements in case of insufficient water level and reconnects them when the water level recovers.
• Made of stainless steel and epoxy paint, it is easily dismountable for cleaning. It includes a switch with signal light and thermostat for protection against overheating.
• The DESA model is available in 4 and 8 litres/hour (230 V) and 12 litres/hour (380 V). The model producing 4 litres/hour is available in 110 V.

DETA Series - DETA model water still with tank - Available in 4 and 8 litres/hour

• Series of automatic and continuous production distillers. Includes storage tank for the water produced (the capacity of the tank is 10 litres for the 4 l/hour model and 16 litres for the 8 l/hour model).

• Stainless steel coolant and heating elements. Excellent distillation quality. Safety mechanism that switches off the heaters when the cooling water flow decreases and switches on again when the cooling water flow recovers. When the resulting water storage tank is full, the unit stops working and restarts as the water is consumed. With thermostat, which protects the unit in case of overheating, and distilled water dispensing tap. They are fitted with a wall-mounting bracket.
• The DETA model is available in 4 and 8 litres/hour (230 V). The model that produces 4 litres/hour is available in 110 V.

HYDRO Series - Water still model Hydro - Available in 4 and 8 litres/hour

• A series of fully automatic distillers designed in the form of a cabin with a translucent coloured display that allows visualisation of the distillation and is easily removable to ensure accessibility to the interior of the unit.

• A safety mechanism switches off the heating elements when the cooling water pressure drops and switches them back on again when the pressure is restored. All HYDRO models are fitted with a wall-mounting bracket.

• All models in this series incorporate a filling probe that acts as a water level sensor when placed in an external water tank, automatically controlling the filling of the tank.

• The HYDRO model is available in 4 and 8 litres/hour.

HYDRO Series - Bi-Hydro Water Still - 4 litres/hour

• This model of the HYDRO series is special because it is a bi-distiller, i.e. it produces double distilled water of superior quality.

• The distilled water produced by this model has a conductivity 20C [µS/cm], under optimum conditions, less than 0.5 µS/cm.
