Chemglass Rotary Evaporator Bump Trap 250 ml 24/40 Inner and 14/20 Outer Joint
The Chemglass CG-1321-04 Rotary Evaporator Bump Trap is a specialized piece of laboratory glassware designed to protect the rotary evaporator and vacuum system from bumping or foaming during solvent evaporation. This bump trap has a 250 ml capacity, making it suitable for use with various sizes of evaporating flasks.
A crucial function of a bump trap is to prevent the violent ebullition (bumping) of the heated solution from reaching the condenser and contaminating the collected solvent or the vacuum pump. It acts as a safety reservoir, catching any sudden splashes or foam. This particular bump trap features a 24/40 standard taper inner joint, which connects to the evaporating flask, and a 14/20 standard taper outer joint, which connects to the rotary evaporator's condenser. These standard joint sizes ensure secure and leak-free connections within the distillation apparatus.
The Chemglass CG-1321-04 Rotary Evaporator Bump Trap is an essential component for efficient, safe, and clean solvent evaporation in chemical laboratories.
