Packed Column | OperatiX – 15
The Packed Column OperatiX – 15 is a glass column, 750mm high and 50mm in diameter, designed for distillation applications. This Packed Column uses Rashig Ring glass packing to provide mass transfer interfacial area between gas and liquid phases. It is suited for heat-sensitive substances and low pressure vacuum distillation operations. The column includes 3 input ports for laboratory setup.
The Packed Column OperatiX – 15 is designed for distillation, especially with heat-sensitive substances or low pressure vacuum distillation operations. This Packed Column uses a cylindrical shell fitted with support plates and packing material to provide mass transfer interfacial area. It is built with a glass construction for laboratory use.
Product Overview
Packed columns are helpful for distillation, especially when working with heat-sensitive substances or when low pressure operations, such as vacuum distillation, are required. A packed column is made up of support plates inside of a cylindrical shell.
Some kind of packing, which rests on the support plate, is placed inside the cylindrical shell. The packing material provides a substantial mass transfer interfacial area.
The height equal to one theoretical plate (HETP) measures a packing’s capacity to influence desirable mass transfer between the gas and liquid phases. This is a common unit of measurement used when evaluating a Packed Column.

Construction and Design
The Packed Column OperatiX – 15 is built as a cylindrical glass shell, 750mm in height and 50mm in diameter. Support plates are positioned inside the shell to hold the packing material. Rashig Ring packing, made of glass with a 10mm diameter and 10mm height, rests on the support plate. The packing provides a substantial mass transfer interfacial area between gas and liquid phases. The column includes 3 input ports.
