How the AutoVap15 Works
The AutoVap15 works by pumping your tincture up through a preheater before being
atomized through a sprayer. The material than falls through a heated, jacketed exchanger
where the solvent evaporates, and is "pulled" by vacuum into the condenser exchanger
which is cooled from a chiller.
The "crude" material is collected in the Residue Vessel (left vessel in diagram below). For
the AV15+, the solvent collects in the Solvent Vessel and then is automatically discharged
out of the discharge pump.
Note, in non-discharge models, the solvent collects in the Solvent Vessel and must be
manually discharge used pressure.
The AutoVap15 is simple to clean and can ensure the longevity of your AutoVap15 system.
