2520-ADAPTERS, SPLASH HEADS, VERTICAL

• Vertical, Pear Shape
• Lower cone accepts flask & upper cone accepts condenser

Here are some common uses for a Splash Head, Vertical in a laboratory setting:

1. Chemical Reactions: During chemical reactions that may produce splattering or foaming, a vertical splash head can be attached to the neck of the reaction vessel to control the release of vapors and prevent spills.
2. Distillation Setups: In distillation apparatus, particularly when handling volatile or reactive substances, a vertical splash head can be used to prevent liquid from being carried over into the condenser, ensuring the purity of the distillate.
3. Solvent Recovery: When recovering solvents through distillation, a vertical splash head can be employed to control the vapor flow and prevent splashing, facilitating efficient solvent recovery.
4. Reflux Setups: In reflux setups, where vapors are condensed and returned to the reaction flask, a vertical splash head can be used to minimize the risk of splattering during the reflux process.
5. Heating and Boiling: During heating or boiling procedures, a vertical splash head can be attached to the opening of the vessel to control the release of vapors and prevent splashing.
6. Laboratory Filtration: When performing vacuum filtration, a vertical splash head can be used to minimize splashing as the liquid passes through the filter.
7. Safety Measures: Vertical splash heads can serve as a safety measure to prevent hazardous substances from splashing or spraying, helping to protect researchers and maintain a safe laboratory environment.
8. Fractional Distillation: In setups involving fractional distillation, a vertical splash head can be used to control the flow of vapor and liquid, preventing unwanted splashing and ensuring accurate separation of components.
