PROS Stills
PROS manufactures replacement stills.
Designed to Replace Original Stills on Any Drycleaning Machine.
PROS has designed a line of generic retrofit stills for replacing the original defective still on your drycleaning machine.
PROS is an industry leader in designing retrofit equipment to prolong the
life of your existing machine using new technologies.
The S100 and S40 are manufactured in the U.S.A. using 10 gauge 304 stainless
steel. The S38 is an Italian still.
Each still is insulated for the most efficient operation possible. Each still has a 14" diameter door. PROS has a proprietary flat bottom steam chamber template that has proven to the be the most efficient and durable in the industry.
PROS has two basic sizes, 50 gallon and 100 gallon working capacity units. The modular design allows you to have the configuration that you want in order to meet your needs. Refer to our price sheet for all the available options.
All PROS stills have sight glasses on the front and rear of the still giving the operator superior visual access.
Spin filter conversions offer an excellent opportunity to get away from the costs associated with the purchase and disposal of cartridge filters without sacrificing filtration quality.
PROS stills are designed as both stand alone and as onboard replacement.
The PROS Hydrocarbon Vacuum Still is a modular still assembly designed for use with Class IIIa solvents like Exxon's DF-2000 and Shell's 142HT. The still is designed to hold 100 gallons of solvent (working capacity) and distill at a rate of 50 gallons per hour.
The still is a flat
bottom design made in the U.S.A. of 10 gauge 304 stainless steel. The still has
been reinforced to withstand 25 inches of vacuum. Each still is insulated and
skinned and comes with a steel 14" diameter door. The still includes two
self cleaning sight glasses, front and rear, and a complete steam assembly.
Operation. The still in mounted on a holding tank that is designed to feed sovent into the still without losing vacuum in the still. Once the still has acheived 25 inches of vacuum then the steam is turned on and the sovent is distilled. Solvent vapor is condensed through a standard stainless steel condensor with serpentine style water coil. The liquid solvent then passes through the vacuum pump where it makes a transition back to atmospheric pressure. At this point the solvent is directed to a water separator and then back to a basetank.
Safeties. The still is equiped with an automatic steam shutoff if there is insufficient vacuum or if there is insufficient water flow to the condensing coil. The still is designed not to release from vacuum if the solvent temperature is over 100°F. An automatic high solvent level shutoff prevents overfilling the still.
Controls. All the controls for the still are included in a control box and include solenoid valves, safety reset and spin filter operation.
