Product Overview:
The UltraX-15 combines closed-loop alcohol extraction with centrifugal technology, ensuring consistent results conveniently by a single operator. A touch screen HMI features a menu with various agitation and spin-dry cycles, each of which is programmable to the operator’s specifications. With a run time of only 10-20 Minutes and a throughput of approximately 300 lbs Per 8-hour work day, this system will efficiently attain Your processing goals.

Operation

Through the HMI,the operator may access 2 different programs: Agitation and spin-dry. Each program has three cycle presets, two of which are programmable (will save long term) and one being manual (will not save long term). To begin, the operator fills a mesh bag with botanical material and places the bag in the system. After sealing the system properly, it is than filled with alcohol and agitated using the ’Agitation’ program. When the ’Agitation’ program is complete, the operator opens the drain valve allowing the saturated alcohol to drain into an appropriate discharge container. After draining, the operator may now select the ’Spin-Dry’ program where the residual alcohol will be removed through centrifugal force.

1)Loading the System

A mesh bag is filled and packed evenly with botanical mater.The bag is then sealed with the zipper, and placed in the basket of the vessel.

2)Filling the System

The system is sealed and filled with approximately 15 gallons of alcohol, which may be done either pneumatically(with a pump+ air compressor) or with gaseous nitrogen.

3)Agitation

The ’Agitation’ program bi-directionally spins the basket with the botanical material and alcohol, extracting approximately 98% of the target compounds.

4)Draining

When the ’Agitation’ program is Complete, the drain valve is opened to allow the alcohol to drain into an appropriate discharge container.

5)Spin-Dry

Leaving the drain valve open, the ’Spin-dry’ program is chosen and the basket is spun at high speeds to centrifugally remove approximately 97% of any residual alcohol.

6)System Unloading

Once the ’Spin-Dry’ program is finished and the basket has stopped spinning, the lid may be opened and the bag removed. The botanical matter has now been stripped of its target compounds and may be disposed of properly.

7)Repeat

The system is loaded again and the same 15 gallons of alcohol may be re-used for multiple extractions until fully saturated (approximately 3 bags or 45 lbs)
