Flexible Adapter for Exhaust Cooler Impeller Angle Tool Typically, the exhaust cooler and its fittings are at the highest point of the culture vessel. They have to be arranged vertically to enable condensate to flow back into the vessel. However, in the case of small autoclaves, the height of the fully equipped Univessel® Glass can be challenging. Helps to adjust easily the angle of the impeller blades to 30°. Using a flexible adapter reduces height requirements in an autoclave. The adapter is installed between the exhaust cooler and its top plate port at the culture vessel.
