ASC-150 24 kW Solvent Recovery Plant

Product catalog summary
Overview: The ASC-Series is a modern distillation plant known for its compact design, efficiency, and ease of use. The ASC-150 model is particularly popular due to its integrated steam heating system and stainless steel conical distillation vessel.
Specifications: The ASC-150 features a stainless steel conical distillation vessel with a steam-heated lateral surface, allowing for rapid energy transfer and high distillation rates. It operates with a high-speed vacuum pump for continuous 24-hour operation and includes a SIEMENS microprocessor for process control. The system is designed for automatic and continuous filling and emptying, with a capacity of 66-211 gallons per shift.
Technical Data: The ASC-150 has a total vessel volume of 42 gallons and a distillation rate of approximately 10-24 gallons per hour, depending on various factors. It requires an electrical connection of 480Y/277V, 60Hz, and has a power consumption of 24 kW for the steam heating generator. The system also requires cooling water and air pressure for optimal operation.
Product Benefits: Key benefits include parts made of stainless steel, automatic filling, excellent drainage, and a perfect scraper system that requires no re-adjustment. The integrated steam heating system offers faster heating without the need for oil changes, reducing maintenance costs. The closed system design prevents corrosion, and the electric control board with SIEMENS technology ensures reliable operation.
Safety and Compliance: The ASC-150 is constructed according to the latest EU directives and conforms to ASME codes and standards, ensuring a high level of operational safety. It is UL-conform and suitable for use in EX Class environments.
Applications: The ASC-150 is typically used in industries such as printing, where solvent recovery is essential. It is designed for continuous recycling processes and can handle various types of solvents and contaminants.

ASC-150 24 kW Solvent Recovery Plant-1

Data Sheet ASC-150 24 kW Solvent Recovery Plant US-Version The ASC-Series, one of the most modern distillation plants worldwide, is constructed with a compact design, is powerful and very easy to use. the set time has passed or the tank of dirty solvent is empty, the plant switches automatically to Timer 2. Timer 2: Final distillation mode "Sump Distillation": The continuous filling is stopped and the remaining solvent mixture in the vessel is evaporated to a thick concentrate. After a set time has passed the plant switches off and is ready for manual or fully automatic emptying. The distilled and cleaned solvent flows continuously from the distilling plant into a nearby tank. A further characteristic of the ASC-Series evaporators is a slow-running agitator with automatic self-adjusting scraper blades made of PTFE. These blades optimally clean the conical evaporator vessel and need no re-adjustment, which is of great benefit during daily operation. The total distillation process is controlled by a SIEMENS microprocessor. The ASC-150 is OFRU´s most popular vacuum distillation unit out of the professional ASC-Series. It includes a modern integrated steam heating system. The emptying of the high-viscosity residue is done via natural gravity over a drainage valve at the bottom of the round conical vessel. A particular characteristic is the conical distillation vessel made of stainless steel, where the lateral surface is heated with steam. The steam in the double jacket transfers the energy extremely fast into the solvent. At the same time a high distillation rate is attained with a small vessel volume. Only an electrical connection is necessary for the integrated steam heating system. The plant can be refilled again automatically with dirty solvent after e.g. a one, two or three-shift operation. A new continuous recycling process then begins. A high-speed vacuum pump transfers the dirty solvent to the evaporator and guarantees a continuous 24-hour operation. During automatic distillation the quantity of solvent evaporated is gradually and automatically replaced. This automatic process can be adjusted with the timer. Timer 1 "Continuous Distillation": If Typical area of application: 66-211 gal / shift Sample installation: Concept printing industry
