Ai DomeShield Insulating Tops Help Short Paths Reach Peak Performance
Short path distillation is growing more popular in the cannabis extraction industry. The greater control a processor has over the process, the better the results. Since temperature uniformity is so important, Ai Vacuum--a top post-processing equipment provider in the industry, is now offering DomeShield insulation tops. These have many features which can help processors bring their short path game up to peak performance.
LIVINGSTON, N.J., April 9, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- In the cannabis industry, short path distillation is used to refine what's known as crude oil, after it's been winterized, polished, and put through simple distillation. Short path distillation removes impurities, turning the oil into clear, golden distillate. Such processing allows the oil to be used in a variety of products, such as vape pen cartridges, capsules, topicals, and edibles. These products are blowing up right now in adult-use markets. They also offer patients an additional avenue of cannabinoid consumption beyond smoking. As a result, short path distillation is only growing in popularity among processors.
A short path distillation kit is one of the most affordable ways to make distillate. Of course, the proper kit, accessories, and know-how are required to ensure success. The greater control over the temperature the process takes place at, the better the results. Temperature uniformity is the name of the game. That's why Ai Vacuum, a premier supplier of post-harvest equipment to the cannabis industry, has just released a series of insulating accessories.
Ai DomeShield insulating tops help short paths operate at peak performance. These domes prevent vapor condensation from forming on the upper half of the flask. They also protect the flask and ensure temperature uniformity. Should anything be dropped on the flask, the DomeShield will protect it. Inside a fabric exterior is fiberglass insulation rated for up to 800°C. It's also easy to install and remove. Just use the Velcro straps. DomeShields are available for two, five, 10, and 20-liter flasks. Each can accommodate one, two, or even three neck flasks.
For even greater precision and temperature control, Ai Vacuum also offers two insulation sleeves for short path distillation heads. These are called the Ai DrainShield and HeadShield. Each accommodates a five-liter head. The DrainShield preserves temperature uniformity, allowing your head to operate at peak performance. This sleeve is made of a material with very low thermal conductivity. It's rated for -60°C to 280°C and is easy to install, using Velcro straps.
The internal fiberglass filling of the HeadShield insulating sleeve is rated for 800°C. It has a very low thermal conductivity and comes with a built-in viewing window, which allows you to see what's happening inside your glassware. The HeadShield is also easy to install and remove using Velcro straps. All of this allows you churn out superior product quickly and in a more uniform fashion.
