Splash-proof bulb (also commonly known as a Kjeldahl bulb or splash head) is a safety component used in distillation and nitrogen determination setups. Its primary function is to prevent entrained liquid droplets (carry-over) from the boiling flask from reaching the condenser, which would otherwise contaminate the distillate.

Key Performance Features
  • Entrainment Prevention: The internal baffle design is specifically engineered for Kjeldahl nitrogen determination, where vigorous boiling or foaming is common.
  • Vacuum Stability: Heavy-walled construction ensures safety when used in vacuum distillation setups.
  • Interchangeability: The ground joints (e.g., 24/29) follow international standards, allowing the bulb to be used with glassware from other manufacturers.
  • Material: High-quality Borosilicate 3.3 Glass, providing high resistance to thermal shock and chemical corrosion.
  • Design: A spherical or pear-shaped bulb with two integrated glass tubes. The internal tube is typically bent or baffled to trap splashes while allowing vapor to pass through.
  • Joint Type: Features standard ground glass joints (tapered) on both the upper and lower ends for airtight connections.
