DST-4000 Acid Purification System, 230V

Previous QMX Code: 525-4000-230UK

The Savillex DST-4000 Acid Purification System is the ultimate high capacity unit for routine laboratory production of ultra-pure acids or water and comes complete with everything required to distil ultra-pure acid.

The DST-4000 can produce 500ml of high purity HNO3, HCl or HF (or water) in approximately 6 hours; a temperature setting of 90°C will produce acid at approximately 85ml/hr, and depending upon your laboratories’ acid needs, it can pay for itself in as little as a few months or even weeks.

The Savillex DST-4000 is supplied complete with everything required to distil ultra-pure acid. It is extremely simple to install and requires no cooling water supply. With a footprint of only 30 cm x 50 cm, and a height of only 55 cm, the DST-4000 will fit into most fume hoods. The controller is connected via a 3m cord and is designed to be placed outside the fume hood.

The Savillex DST-4000 Acid Purification System is the ultimate, high capacity unit for routine laboratory production of ultra-pure acids or water.

It is supplied complete with everything required to distil ultra-pure acid. The DST-4000 package includes a built-in heating source, separate digital controller, solid stand, necessary fittings, bottle stand, GL45 transfer closures and two 2,000ml Savillex PFA collection bottle. The vessel and wetted parts of the still are moulded entirely of PFA to ensure the highest purity, and its elegant design and compact form factor will fit neatly and efficiently within your existing laboratory fume hood.

It features:

  • All wetted parts are moulded PFA
  • No cooling water required
  • Graduated front fill tube shows acid level remaining
  • Separate, digital temperature controller with auto shut-off feature
  • Includes (2) 2000 mL Purillex PFA collection bottles

The DST-4000 is equipped with a liquid level sensor that will automatically shut off power to the heater when the liquid level in the reservoir drops below 500ml. The automatic shut-off feature is useful when operating the DST-4000 unattended or for an extended period of time, since automatic shut-off ensures the acid is not distilled to dryness. Any residual acid remaining after distillation (typically less than 500ml) is drained to waste. The distillation process can be stopped at any time if high purity acid is needed urgently.

Unlike commercially available bottled high purity acid, that degrades each time the bottle is opened, the DST acid purification systems provide a continuous supply of freshly produced high purity acid, suitable for the most demanding applications such as semiconductor and geochemical analyses.

Laboratories around the world are using the DST-4000 and the smaller DST-1000 systems to save significant costs each year by eliminating high purity acid purchases. Many labs have invested in multiple DST units to supply all of their acid needs. The DST acid purification systems have proven to be the most effective way to save laboratory consumables costs and improve ICP-MS data quality.
