01 / WORKING ENVIRONMENT
A controlled inert atmosphere
The sealed purification system removes moisture and oxygen molecules to create an inert atmosphere with H₂O and O₂ concentrations of < 0.1 ppm, as stated in the product introduction.
02 / OPERATING PRINCIPLE
Designed for research & development
Designed as an economical purification solution, the 3S MINI supports research and development requirements with automatic moisture and oxygen removal.
Structure & Operating Principle
The 3S MINI consists of a sealed main chamber, large and small evacuable antechambers, a rotary vane vacuum pump, and a display with a PLC controller.
The gas purification system combines a single automatically regenerable purification column with a circulation blower to purify and maintain the working environment. The system is designed to establish an inert atmosphere with H₂O and O₂ levels of ≤ 0.1 ppm.
Application Areas
Designed to provide a low-moisture, low-oxygen environment for:
- Organometallic chemistry and organic synthesis
- 3D printing with advanced material powders
- Special anaerobic and hydrophobic chemical processing
- Biomedical applications and electronic component processing
- Solar cell assembly
- Lithium battery materials research and battery assembly experiments
- Catalyst treatment and pharmaceutical synthesis
- Nuclear and membrane industry applications
