Steam Cleaning System ADA-1
ultra trace cleaning system for laboratory flasks

Principle:
Contaminated vessels, beakers, glass flasks, etc. are disposed to hot steam from, for example, distilled water or nitric acid. This way of cleaning is much better than just to wash the vessels. ada-1

Two effects are doing that:

1. highly effective rinsing with hot steam

2. saturation of the vessel wall with ions
of the cleaning solvent.

This reduces adsorption effects from analytical solvents
at the wall from the cleaned vessels.

Benefits and features:

Cleaning and preconditioning for all kind of vessels, made of glass,
quartz and Teflon PTFE/PFA, ceramics and borosilicate glass.

* leaches metallic ions from the surface of vessels using water or acid vapor
- eliminates measurement errors caused by vessel contamination.

* vessels are continually flushed with fresh vapor - contamination
   is not recycled to the water/acid container.

* top access to cleaning chamber - easy to handle.
* no cooling required - saves water consumption.
* large capacity - simultaneous cleaning of up to 3 x 1 liter flasks.

Description of ADA-1:
The heating element is a modified Schott Ceran heating unit. On top of that a PFA coated container with the water / acid bowl fits. The evaporated steam is piped into the vessels. Condensed steam is guided into a collecting beaker. This could be sub boiled and be used again. The whole unit should be placed under a fume cupboard.
The water / acid container can take up to 2.5 litres and with the included timer it can run several hours.
A variety of vapor tubes is available. The user can easily change the configuration from max. 3 x 1 litre flask to 10 x 100 mm flasks or other combinations. Unused steam ports are closed with glass stoppers.
