Appendix A
Using the ModulyoD as a cold trap
Scope
By utilizing the pipeline adapter accessory, the ModulyoD may be used as a low temperature
vapor trap for a variety of devices. These include vacuum concentrators, rotary evaporators
and vacuum ovens.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to connect vacuum devices directly to the isolation valve on
a column or drum manifold. Caustic vapors may damage the rubber portion
of the isolation valve and discolor or corrode the manifold.
CAUTION: The ModulyoD is suitable for use with most organic solvents. It is not
recommended for use with acids.
Installation
The pipeline adapter (Appendix B, item 12) is positioned directly over the stainless steel acces-
sory flange with the long end of the pipeline adapter extending down into the condenser cham-
ber. The rubber gasket surrounding the flange on the pipeline adapter forms the vacuum seal
with the accessory flange on the top of the ModulyoD. Once in position, vacuum tubing from
the desired device is connected to the pipeline adapter and secured with a hose clamp. The
vacuum hose connecting the ModulyoD to the vacuum source is connected in the manner
described in Section 3.4.
Operation
The ModulyoD must be pre-cooled to operate as a vapor trap. The fridge button must be
switched on and the temperature progress display must be in the green range. Switch on the
vacuum source and begin to monitor the vacuum progress display. This indicator should grad-
ually progress progress from a reading of ‘Hpr ’ to green as the vacuum pressure drops.
