Water Distillation Apparatus

About Water Distillation Apparatus

A Water Distillation Apparatus is a laboratory instrument designed to produce high-purity distilled water by heating water to generate steam and then condensing it back into liquid form. The process effectively removes dissolved salts, minerals, microorganisms, and other impurities, ensuring water suitable for analytical and laboratory applications.

This equipment is widely used in chemistry laboratories, pharmaceutical industries, hospitals, research centers, and educational institutions where pure distilled water is essential for experiments and preparation of reagents.

Working Principle

The apparatus works on the principle of simple distillation. Water is heated until it turns into steam, leaving behind dissolved solids and impurities. The steam is then passed through a condenser where it cools and converts back into pure liquid water (distillate).

Superior Construction for Pure Results

The apparatus uses high-quality borosilicate glass and a chrome-plated copper heating element, providing both robustness and chemical resistance. The 3.3 mm glass thickness ensures stability and safety during operation, while the asbestos sheet base adds an extra layer of heat insulation. Its compact design with standard glass tubing connectors makes installation straightforward in any laboratory setting.


Enhanced Safety and Efficient Performance

Equipped with an automatic safety device, the distillation unit instantly disconnects power to the heating element if the water supply fails, minimizing any risk of overheating. The system operates at 2 kW and 230V AC, supporting up to 80% RH and a wide temperature range. With a fast response time, the unit begins distillation immediately upon heating, ensuring productivity and peace of mind.
