CF-200 Terpene Cold Trap

TERPENE TRAPS ™

COLLECT VALUABLE TERPENES AND EXTEND VACUUM PUMP LIFE

Vacuum Purging

During solvent extraction, vacuum purging is an essential process in producing a high quality end product. Due to the low vacuum pressure and heat required to remove residual solvents, some terpenes are also removed in the process. Without a Terpene Trap, the terpenes enter the vacuum pump where they degrade and cause damage. Our food grade Terpene Traps condense and preserve these terpene vapors as liquid before they enter the vacuum pump. These terpenes can then be consumed and/or reintroduced in post processes.

Decarboxylating

Since high temperatures are required to decarboxylate large amounts of terpenes are lost to the atmosphere. Our Terpene Traps collect these volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in a food grade environment.

Solvents

Terpenes are soluble in most solvents. Some Terpenes vaporize with the solvent as it's reclaimed from the collection vessel and end up back in the solvent tank. Terpene Traps can separate them from the solvent vapor stream. 

The CF-200 is designed to capture terpenes when vacuum purging at vacuum pressures above 1.5 Torr (200 Pa, 29.86 inhg). The CF-200 comes standard with large LED lit borosilicate sight glass, stainless steel enclosure, and Teflon hydrophobic coating.
