Construction and Design
The Gaseous Diffusion Apparatus ReaktiLabX - 03 uses a water bath of approximately 2L capacity, heated by a heater rated approximately 300W. A diffusion tube, 4mm in diameter and 100mm in length, containing a volatile solvent, is submerged in the water bath. At the tube's upper end, a fan with a flow rate of 120 to 320L/h removes gaseous solvent, maintaining a constant concentration. A height-adjustable microscope, with a scale division of 0.1mm, monitors and determines solvent volume in the diffusion tube. A motorized blade stirrer, operating at 500rpm, supports water bath conditions. Temperature is controlled and measured across a range of 100 to 400°C. A digital display and control unit houses the temperature controller and fan controls.
