Reservoir Flask
The Reservoir Flask is a specialised glass component used in steam distillation setups for extracting essential oils and other volatile compounds. It is commonly used in laboratories and small scale distillation applications where controlled extraction is required.
Manufactured from high quality borosilicate 3.3 glass, this flask offers excellent heat resistance and durability. It is designed to connect securely with other glassware using standard joints, making it suitable for use in complete distillation systems.
Key Features
- Made from borosilicate 3.3 glass for durability
- Designed for steam distillation applications
- Standard glass joint connectors for secure setup
- Suitable for essential oil and terpene extraction
- Available in multiple capacity options
- Compatible with standard laboratory glassware
How It Works
The reservoir flask is used as part of a steam distillation system. Steam is passed through plant material, causing volatile compounds to vaporise.
These vapours are then condensed and collected, allowing separation and extraction of essential oils or other compounds.
Designed for Classroom and Lab Use
This flask is suitable for use in organic chemistry laboratories and educational environments. It can also be used in small scale distillation setups for demonstration or practical extraction processes.
Its durable glass construction ensures it can withstand repeated heating and cooling cycles during use.
