Welcome to B/R Instruments
Vacuum Distillation
The manually operated ASTM D1160 vacuum distillation system is a turnkey system including everything needed to perform a D1160 distillation.
- Adjust manual control valve to obtain the desired vacuum level
- Adjust the heat control to obtain the desired distillation rate
- Set the desired condenser and receiver temperature on the circulating bath
- Record the first drop
- Record the vapor and boiling flask temperature at receiver volumes of 5%, 10%, 20% …. 90%, 95% and at the final boiling point (FBP)
New and experienced operators will find this system simple to use. The turn key system is easy to use with only 3 settings for the operator to control. Easy access to all the distillation components makes performing the test as simple as possible.

There are so many reasons to choose a B/R D1160. Here are a few.
Complete System Includes:
Includes everything needed to perform the D1160 test
Easy to operate
Digital temperature and vacuum readouts makes controlling the unit easy. Just set the vacuum level, condenser temperature and adjust the boiling flask heat. It's that simple.
Upgradeable
Upgrade to fully-auto D1160.
The semi-automatic D1160 can be upgraded in the field to the fully automatic. The D1160 can change, as your needs change.
distillation equipment since 1966.
