 In-Line Extraction Unit

Inserting the Glassware

    To minimize the risk of breakage, 

always hold all glassware in the vicinity 

of the standard taper joint! 
Lay the cross-shaped distance parts into 

the hotplate-flask adapters.

    The round-bottom flasks must not be 

immediately inserted in the hotplate-

flask adapters; otherwise they could 

break on heating. Never operate your  

in-line extraction unit without the 

distance parts!

Place the round-bottom flask in the flask 

adapter on the hotplate.

Check once more the height of the 

crossbars with extractor mounts. The 

upper end of the neck of the round 

bottom flask must protrude several 

millimeters into the lower opening of the 

extractor mount. This will secure the 

flask against tipping over. If necessary, 

adjust the height of the crossbars.

Installing the 

Flask Adapters 

Place the hotplate-flask adapters on the 

hotplates.  

Take care that the adapters are seated 

securely on the hotplates and cannot 

slip off sideways.
