C02 Trap
Series 6400
Description
The 6400 Series carbon dioxide trap is designed to remove CO2 gas from air, argon, helium, hydrogen, or nitrogen. The trap body is constructed of borosilicate glass with nickel plated end fittings with stainless steel sintered frits.* The absorption media is a formulation of sodium hydroxide and calcium hydroxide with an high absorptive capacity and indicating properties. Typically, this material will absorb 15-20% of its weight in carbon dioxide before the material is saturated and needs to be replaced. Replacement is indicated when the normally white color of the material turns violet. If moisture is detrimental to your system, a moisture trap should be installed down stream from this unit to adsorb water evolved from the absorption of the carbon dioxide (see page 69.)
* Units with stainless steel fittings are also available. Add "SS" to part number.
