Mini Distillation Apparatus For Essential Oil

Mini distillation apparatus is suitable for co-hydration and water-isolated distillation extraction processes of conventional oils and aromatic oils in plant branches, leaves, flowers, and grass materials containing high oil content. The aromatic plants are placed in a distillation container, and then the high-temperature Steam is passed into it (or the spices and water are boiled together. At this time, the essential oil containing aromatic components in the plant will diffuse into the water vapor, forming an azeotrope of oil and water; the azeotrope is then cooled, because The oil is insoluble in water and is separated through the oil-water separator.

Note: some aromatic plant oil content is very less, normal can extract hydrolat, but if you want to extract essential oil, please chose the plants of high content of essential oil, for example: lavender, Australia tea tree, eucalyptus, rosemary, frankincense etc.

Installation:

1.Install according to the instructions, the center of the upper part of the barrel cover should be centered.

2.The seal ring should be placed along the barrel, no air leakage.

3.Pump connection: Dividing the silicone tube into two, one is connected with the pump and the water inlet of the condenser; the other is connected with the water outlet of the condenser, and put the other tube into cooling water. The pump should sink in the cooling water. The pump connect with the 220V power supply.

4.The plug of the distiller is connected to the central controller. The plug of the central controller can be directly plugged into the 220V power supply.

 

Cleaning:

1. Be sure to clean the stainless steel parts of the distiller

2. Put 4kg of water in the pot. (no plants or other grass for cleaning purpose)

3.The circulating water pump is electrified at 220V

4.Distiller→ the central controller plug → 220v sockets

5.Adjust knobs 30' 120 at the bottom of the distiller to 120 Max

6.Starting the switch of the central controller and press “+”until the small screen display“90”

7.There may be some impurities in the original distilled water, which comes from the machine's manual polishing. Threw the distilled water away until there are no impurities in the subsequent water, it means the machine has been cleaned well


How to use: (for example 55L distiller)

Basic water 3kg, total water not more than 30kg (excluding the weight of plants)

The cooling water temperature shall not exceed 40- 50 degrees.

(1) Weight the fresh flowers and record the weight

(2) Add 3kg water into the barrel, and put the fresh flowers on the steam plate

(3) Flower with water ratio of 1:3 (flowers 1: water 3)

(4) The circulating water pump is connected with 220V power supply

(5) The distilling machine is connected to the central controller, and the bottom knob of the distilling machine has a maximum modulation of 30~ 120

(6) The central controller is connected to the 220V power supply, starts the switch, and“+”is added to the small screen to display 90

(7) When the first drop of hydrolat comes out, “↓”it goes down to 40

(8) Except the 3kg basic water, the hydrolat quantity is the water quantity we added

(3) Keep distilling and waiting the essential oil output, at the same time, make sure about 3KG of basic water still left in the machine

Advantage:

1.It is the integrated distiller which can directly work after connecting the electric power. You do not have to buy one stove or cooker.

2.Easy to operate, providing the operating instructions and video instructions.

3.Only need 10 minutes for the lavender or other flowers, that you can get the oil and hydrosol.

4.It has all accessories, including the oil-water seperater, water pump, measuring glass, electronic balance and so on. You can see these all on the table.

5.It is the individual condenser, which can increase the oil yield compares to other distillers.

The last but not least, it has the temperature control from 30 degree to 110 degree. You know, some special material need the temperature control.

It is very suitable for most of plants and flowers such as rose, rosemary, mint, lavender, basil etc

This type of distiller suitable for those has not much enough budget to start a business or take a trial.

 

FAQ:

1.What is material of the distiller?

4.How many hours need to distill per batch/per day?

According to different raw materials, the distilling time is different, for exampe leaf type raw material, generally it need take 3~4 hours per batch, every day can distill 3~4 times according to your actual situation.

10 minutes the oil and hydrosol comes out, you can see our lavender trail, only 10 minutes it already get probably 30 ml oil.

 

5.How much of the oil yield?

The oil yield depends on how much oil rate of your raw material. So if you need know, please send us your raw material, let us to count the oil yield for you.

 

6.What is the heating way?

It is the electric heating way, to heat the water to get the steam.

 

7.What is the accessories of this machine with?

Distillation kettle,Balance,Cover,Condenser,Tubes,Brush,Regulator,Sieve/steam plate

Angle branch,Water pump,Oil and water separator,Silicone pad

 

8.What is the voltage of the distiller?

220~240V 50~60hz single phase, can not change, you can match a transformer in local market.

 

9.Do you need other machine to get the oil?

No need. Just these type of essential oil distiller. Connect with electricity and water can start to distill the hydrosol and essential oil.
